When you work for a toxic boss, it can be hard to get anything done. Here are some tips for dealing with a toxic boss:
1. Know what you're getting into. If this is your dream job and you know that the work environment is toxic, then you should understand why it's so difficult to succeed.
2. Know what you want out of the relationship, and stick to it. You can't change someone else's behavior only they can do that but you can decide what kind of person they need to become in order to be successful at their job and happy at work. Make sure they know what kind of manager or leader they have to be so that they don't have any surprises when they come back on Monday morning after their weekend off!
3. Be open about how these issues affect you personally, but don't make excuses for them either! If something goes wrong, instead of blaming others or trying to fix things on your own, take responsibility for whatever happened instead of pointing fingers at others who may have contributed to the situation in some way but didn't cause it directly themselves.
4. Try to talk to the person who's making you feel toxic. Talk about how they're affecting your work and how it makes you feel. Try to figure out what they need from you in order to succeed, and if possible, offer that feedback to them as well.
5. If they don't want to work with you, then it's time for them to find another job! Don't stay in an environment that's toxic for long enough that it affects your health and happiness. Don't let anyone else get affected by it either. if everyone around you is affected by their boss' behavior, then everyone suffers for it.
