That’s so true. I’ve always maintained that it’s worse to be stuck in a job you hate than to be stuck in a bad marriage, because you spend more time at a job than you spend with a spouse. Then there’s the commute, the time you spend after work unwinding from the stress of the job, and even on the weekend you’re dreading going back to work.
A spouse is more willing to seek counseling/mediation with you than a bad boss.
I’ve only had 2 horrible managers in all of my work experience but one was dishonest and the other downright insulting and unbearable.
