Be Confident
Be confident and display confidence in your work. If it’s in your boss’ character to irritate staff, nothing can be done about it. He or she will use every chance to pull you down, sometimes in person, sometimes in public. No matter the circumstances, try always to never lose your self-confidence. Do not be arrogant, but display professional etiquette and confidence.
Focus On Being The Best
Always be professional in your work environment. Wear the look of professionalism in office, irrespective of your opinion about your boss. Take his or her words as a part of your job and get them done accurately. Carry out instructions as your duty and never get into judging the personality and attitude of your boss. Display your expertise without arrogance, do not let your boss’s behavior distract you from achieving your goals. Focus on activities that position you to lead and produce measurable results. In a subtle way, outdo an annoying boss with your obvious knowledge. Aim to highlight your expertise and deter an annoying boss from prodding you any further. If your expertise is clear and highly respected, an annoying boss will back off, knowing that pursuing a petty issue with you can make them look stupid if they cannot keep up with your points.
