It's hard in this situation because your job and pay are under the table. Usually, in that case, company policy is either moot or there barely is a policy.

Your boss sounds very overbearing and unfair! I would suggest speaking to him directly, but being kind and direct in the process. If your company has a Human Resources, contact them. If none of this works, find a new job quick!

Ch, these types of situations can be cleared only after having a direct conversation with your seniors. Sit with them face to face and try to solve it out keeping your interests protected.

It can be hard dealing with a boss like that. You should try speaking with his superiors and if that doesnt work, suggest maybe that you get moved under a new supervisor.

It sounds like that would be your best bet!! Find a job that respects you as a person and doesnt just think of you as a number.

I do admit that it is difficult to work with this type of boss. They are nothing but psycho. I had a parallel experience which I would like to share. My ex-boss was quite similar with yours and used to spy not only on me but all of his subordinates. One day he even told me that you don't have the right to acquire any knowledge. It was really frustrating.

I used this strategy and reported what happened to me in writing without mentioning his name, but it was pointing to him clearly. And it worked. That person was removed from the department and my present boss is very cooperative.
