7 Things Your Boss Should Never Say to You
1. "I pay your salary. You have to do what I say."
2. "I don't want to listen to your complaints."
3. "I was here on Saturday afternoon. Where were you?"
4. "Isn't your performance review coming up soon?"
5. "We've always done it this way."
6. "We need to cut costs"
7. "You should work better."
