I had a boss last year that would call me every night and ask what I did that day during work. We used our phones to clock in so I started clocking in when he called me. Each conversation lasted roughly 20 minutes and then he got pissed when I had a couple of hours worth of overtime on my next paycheck. He thought our conversations were ‘friendly banter’ at 9PM…
He then made the team start signing daily contracts of the three things that we had to get done that day. Needless to say, my whole team quit within two months.
How have you been micromanaged before?
