“That’s just how [the boss] is. Don’t take it personally”

I hate this phrase. It’s fucked up when people tell the worker not to internalize mistreatment, micromanagement, or demoralizing bosses, instead of acknowledging that the boss’ behavior is toxic. It shouldn’t be the workers’ job to not feel anxiety/depression over how a boss is treating them. It’s the BOSS who needs to work to change their behavior.
