…your boss’ current beef with you

The same as always, never changed. And the issues are never regarding work itself but his personality on how to handle work. He likes to make up stories for his errors and mistakes. He also likes to let employees here fight with one another by making bad stories about one another, like employee A said that employee B is so and so, even if it's not true. He has a personality disorder and the worst part is that he compose the top management. He does not act like a boss but instead act like a staff. He does not know how to do his work and does not know the scope of his own work. Imagine he handles the HR department too but does not know the salaries of each employee here. Frustating!

My last boss have the oddest "beef" to me that I've ever encountered. Today, he will ask me to do something. When I turn it in the following day, he will reprimand me for doing it like that, apparently he wants it done differently now. This keeps on happening that what I did is whenever he calls me in his office for something that he wants me to do, I bring my laptop, type his instructions, print it out and let him sign it (his secretary is just right outside his office, i will email the list to her, she prints it out and brings it inside for us). He was okay with the idea for a while. Until the last time, he reprimanded me again for doing it that way. I pulled out his signed instruction and I said that I only did what he asked me to. Guess what he said? "Don't throw that to me now, it's different now!" Sighs. Now another department is pirating me but he won't let me go. Until this very day, I do not understand what's his problem with me.

He has the right tho feel grumpy, his role is a boss. So we need do respect his discretion. If you feel that injustice, then ask what went wrong.

I guess bosses are like that, they need to show their constructive criticisms. It doesn't mean you are accepting the fact, but you need to be open and not that sensitive. Besides, it is only a work-related issue.
