Hi @utopia

The wife is 20 years younger and is the managing director here, german lady who is even worse than him.  She is very stern, very argumentative aswell and can be abusive and extremely moody so its one happy family!!!!!!!!

I'm just keeping my eye open for jobs that come up around my area.

Until then I just have to realise its their problem not mine, fortunately my direct manager understands and deals with the same frustrations - all we seem to do throughout our work day is putting out fires that the owner has caused - usually upsetting people.  I know of some who have sought bullying advice.  Fortunately I think I have earnt the trust of the employees but they also know that I can only do so much. We have had a few people of late resign becuase of their crap but they twist it in their minds that it was because they did something wrong and didnt want to face the consequences. Recording him or anything like that wont make any difference, yes I could take it to workcover and all that but to be honest I dont need all that extra stress.  I have seen how they "push" someone out of this company, they dont terminate many but lots leave!

I'll just keep looking, I also have this stubborn streak in me that really annoys me - I dont want to give them the satisfaction of my resigning - its too easy for them.  

 

Anyway surprisingly I feel ok today considering.

 

Thanks everyone!
