You lying son of a...!!!!!

I once had a boss who was a smooth talker that if you listen to him, you would really believe everything he says. However, I had a friend who was also an ex-colleague of that boss and heard not so good things about him. I knew about it on my boss' first day with our team :D. Perfect timing hehe. Well, I did not close my doors because it's been years already since my friend and this boss became colleagues so I had the benefit of the doubt. However, being the one who was next in command to him at that time, I had the firsthand experience of how he was. I wouldn't say he's worse but because he would like to convince people, he would sometimes go overboard. Amazingly, people do believe him. Sadly, if he behaves that way, more often than not, it becomes my headache because sometimes, people would question and I would find a way to explain it to them without causing much damage to his reputation LOL. Well, it's all in the past, I've already moved on a long time ago, been vindicated by news I heard from former colleagues, and now I can just laugh about it. :p As for your boss, he's really weirdly special (in a not nice way).

If he lied once he will lie again. If I felt this way about someone I worked for and there was someone above them I would go to the head and complain. I wouldn't do anything unless I was paid for my job. Good luck!

It would certainly not make me feel loyal and motivated. If it happened really often I think I would be looking for a different job really soon. It does not sound like he trusts you to get your jobs done on time.

Hi glory. If its just a joke, then sure i shall talk him that i dont like jokes. If he serious lied, then i would like to know the reason. If he has an another intention, i am not to believe him anymore. Have a nice day.

Why would any boss want to lie to his subordinates as mostly it is the other way around. It is only the incompetent I guess would do it and if that happened in my life I would certainly not enjoy working with him. Money is not the only reason for anyone to be in employment and to be constantly associated with a liar is not my cup of tea. I would seek change.

Hi Glory Ugh I cannot stand being in front of face to face and being lied to. If it is a boss I will listen only because sometimes we don't have a choice. I will go with the flow but I will have absolutely no respect for the person. I will be very cautious in what the person says because the boss could use some things later against us. I would drive me crazy and I would more then likely seek work elsewhere.

I once had a boss who lied a lot. At first he said one thing and later on he claimed that he had never said those things or given us those instructions. Sometimes he forgot to give us instructions and blaimed us for forgetting things that we had never been told. He claimed that he had given us the instructions, but we all knew that it wasn't true. He also lied in other ways. I completely lost my trust in him. When he said something, my first thought was: "I wonder if it is true" because I had been lied to so many times...

Like you I feel disappointed to people who lies to me. I had a very bad experience with a liar friend. I have never expected that she will lie upfront as if it doesn't hurt. What an angel demonic guts she has. I don't give my trust to people once they lied to me.

Wow Glory that sounds so frustrating! I would dust off my resume if I were you and start looking around if he really treats you that badly. Being stressed and rushing all the time is not good for a person and no one does their best work like this anyway. Sounds like a very difficult situation.

Well, since I don't trust people anyway, I would go to the top and go over the bosses head and get him in trouble. No one will lie to me and get away with it. I have been lied to my my ex when we were married and ever since then I will never let anyone get the better of me. Call him a liar to his face. And remember this, believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.

If my boss lie to me I will feel disappointed. However, I will not trust him or her from that moment. But I will still respect him or her as my boss afterall he is just a human being like me. He or she is not a God or a superhuman. Somehow,lies is just one of those strategy some boss could apply to tackle the company numerous challenges and stress. Most boss would feel that if they continue to speak the truth, it sometimes does not solve all their problems.So they sometimes push in some little lies to get things going.
