Are you fed up with your manager, boss, supervisor or your company rules?!
Do you agree with a big chunk of people that a bad boss is the main reason of why an employee quit his job looking for another anonymous chance, a chance which may hold inside another worse situation, who knows?
Most people wait for their promotion as to breathe & exhale widely when they reach management level in their careers because they would no longer report to a small manager any more. A manager reports to a director or a VP in most corporate structures. Let’s wish they don’t convert either to a bad personality & start a bad attitude against their staff underneath their responsibility.
I am currently working as a Senior Network Engineer and from my personal experience in Dubai since year 2000, I have seen many cases where employees quit their jobs as to change their company for a less pay only to get rid of their bad boss, who made his life a hell.
Another case where a bad boss refused to accept someone’s resignation because he knew that he has got quad the salary offer from another company, although that manager knows that he is underestimated in his current pay and position & that he deserves the new position. Finally, he ruined the life of my friend & he fired him after letting that golden chance goes from him, ending him with leaving Dubai and going back to Jordan. The bad thing here is that this manager is from Jordan also & he knows that the victim employee is the only family member who works & that he is responsible financially about his brothers & parents.
For me, thank god, I am currently not facing any difficulties of that kind anymore as the atmosphere in my department is warm & friendly. I will not write about my personal past experiences as everybody should turn the page with optimism, they werent that bad but we live and see. To be frankly, I cannot handle a bad boss for 5 days -didn’t want to say 5 minutes or seconds- after raising my patience level to 1000%.
Conclusion, I think whatever person is happy or not with his current boss or company atmosphere, the best for someone is to be his own boss. This subject is fragile. Why? Because it needs to be calculated very well. I still remember a story I heard from one Multinational IT Director here in Dubai, telling me about his friend, who was a regional manager and planned to have his own business in Amman. The man resigned from his position and invested all his savings & was finally in the street after 1 year walking like a hopeless, even without his car which he sold it. He lost his position, his money & he failed. That is an exception of course, I wish everybody the success in their career or self employment.

Be careful about what you read online, we should think twice before we approve anything we read on the internet. Since 1998, I think I’ve received “the hotmail users Hoax” email for more than 100 times & it is obviously still being forwarded up until now. (If you don’t forward the email to 15 of your contacts, your hotmail account will be deleted :))
