Bosses making your job harder?

Maybe this isn’t the best subreddit to ask this in, but what are examples of ways your bosses make your life harder and what do you do about it? I have 3 bosses I work with, but I only directly report to 1. The 1 I report to is legit busy, and it’s hard for her to meet deadline sometimes. The other 2, I’m not so sure. What I do know is that I have more responsibility than them and I am definitely in more meetings than them, and when I’m in meetings I contribute more and I’m more prepared. Should I start documenting this and go to HR? Do I just find another job? Some examples of my struggle are below: Sending them an item for review and them sending it back with typos.

Maybe this isn’t the best subreddit to ask this in, but what are examples of ways your bosses make your life harder and what do you do about it? I have 3 bosses I work with, but I only directly report to 1. The 1 I report to is legit busy, and it’s hard for her to meet deadline sometimes. The other 2, I’m not so sure. What I do know is that I have more responsibility than them and I am definitely in more meetings than them, and when I’m in meetings I contribute more and I’m more prepared. Should I start documenting this and go to HR? Do I just find another job?

Some examples of my struggle are below:

Sending them an item for review and them sending it back with typos.

Asking them to contribute to a “group project” and they have typos, formatting issues, don’t provide content on time, etc.

Me making every effort to provide them with a report on time, and they just don’t review it on time (making us all look bad to their bosses)

Them not paying attention to emails and asking me for something that’s already been sent to them.

Sending out emails with serious typos/misrepresentation or wrong dates to external people, so I have to respond and correct them.

Not wanting to step up and lead a meeting (like straight up says they don’t want to lead a meeting)

Asking for something to be done under a ridiculous deadline (like one day) and then being nitpicky when it isn’t perfect.

The thing is, I like my job, I am just really frustrated with my supervisors. Do I just leave?
