First I will say that you have to look at it from your perspective and his too. The guy is a jerk, but dont let that get you down, get another job. 20 years ago an old boss of mine made the comment to me, "you are going to be working for many years so dont burn yourself out" I took that advice and only worked 40-55 hours per week, I worked hard but not enough to get tired of it. You must know that it is very important that you work hard, do the best you can and look at the job from both aspects, you and the boss or owner. Dont have a bad feeling towards the owner because he may be rich, its rich people that let the little guys like me work and make a paycheck. Here is the best advice a 39 year old who has never been fired or laid off, thank god--- can give you for your next job and the rest of your life. 1. dont be a drunk even if all your friends are. 2. show up early for work, leave at quitting time and not before. 3. dont steal from your employer. 4. do the best you can. 5. if you dont know the answer or how to do something--ask, it is always better to ask then to screw it up and waste time and money. 6. dont complain about the place to any of the other employees. Read this, sleep with it under your pillow, live it, do it. Good luck.
