Horrible Bosses

For anyone who's had a really horrible boss, I'm sure you can all relate to the petty mind games, the undermining of your expertise or opinions, the taking credit for work that you've done, the overall deliberate sabotage of your reputation and value as an employee.  Below is a list of just some of the really shitty bosses I've had in my life, starting with the most recent:

Clinic Director
This guy is the Clinic Director of a Physical Therapy clinic, and though he has a few letters after his name, he couldn't manage his way out of a wet paper bag.  He's an insecure, antagonistic jackass control-freak who loves to play mind games with people because he thinks he's so much smarter than anyone else.  I should've known what a know-it-all douche he was going to be after I'd told him I'd worked at a couple of gold mines and I shared some interesting tidbits about gold and other minerals, to which he questioned my facts and arrogantly informed me that HE had minored in Geology.  Well, dickhead, the information I had was given to me by actual Geologists working for actual gold mines, not some educated idiot who only minored in Geology.  After months of scheduling problems that this asshole created himself, he tried to blame the scheduling problems on the staff.  I quit after he sent an email publicly flogging the staff for doing exactly what he told us to do.

Vice President & CIO
The CIO was so technically-retarded that he kept telling us that our jobs could be done "with just 5 clicks" of the mouse.

A very married Vice President (one of many) was sending filthy text messages (sexting) to any and every woman willing to have sex with him.  I especially liked the text he sent to a female technical recruiter in which he said he wanted to have her fuck him while wearing a Santa hat.  Merry Christmas!

Supervisor and Manager
Probably the worst two bosses I've ever had were a supervisor and manager who had the maturity of a couple of ten-year-olds.  They sat in their office giggling all day (when they weren't out of the office screwing off, which was often), and bragged about smoking crack and doing other drugs (I used to call them Beavis and Butthead).  The supervisor was the worst: pounding the back of my chair with his fists, kicking expensive electronic equipment because he was having a tantrum, threatening to fire people because he claimed we weren't doing what he wanted (but would never say what we weren't doing whenever we asked).  He got demoted (big surprise) and he told me it was my fault.  Yes, it was my fault that you're an asshole.  Where the fuck do they find these people?
