New boss claps his hands at me...?
"Hurry up! Snap-snap!" to hurry and get his paperwork. It pisses me off when he acts like this. My stomach is in knots every day. One day he made me cry. It's not like I do anything that is SO terrible. It could be that I ask a question when he is irritable. This is a new job and I'm learning. He can be very joyous at times, and others, just bite your head off. He embarrassed me today in front of coworkers with his "hurry up--clap clap" routine. I hate him. I have a graduate degree and professional credentials. I also am going through a financial crisis at home and am sick with stress anyway. Can't quit this job. Do any of you recognize this man's personality---if I can expect more of the same treatment--I've never experienced anything like this. Thanks.
Answer:
You have to set things clear.
Just say that when he needs something you cannot get it readily just like that unless you give me time. If that happens again, you just do what you have to do but in a relaxed manner. Remember, the more stressed you are the more errors you will make. You need to do your best, but not at the expense of efficiency and effectiveness. You gain this by being relaxing, smiling and having a positive attitude and teaching your boss to wait. ;-) Patience is a virtue. He will learn by waiting if you know what I mean. If he needed something that he could have told you earlier, then you could have gotten it better prepared, but if there is none, you do your best in short notice. Well, he should know how to schedule right? ;-)
I can't tell you whether or not it will keep up or not. But try this. Try asking him to stop. It's not always good to try and stomach things. If he doesn't stop, report it to HIS boss, for it is harassment.
Really though, I know how you feel. I've had things happen like this too me...it's especially embarassing when it happens in front of people.
Well, I'm not sure if you can change your boss' attitude, he is the boss and he will behave like one. He probably wouldn't even care what you say to him.
What you can change though is the way you deal with this situation. Have a read at this article:

I hope it helps.
Personally i would only take so much and then do it back when i wanted him to take the paperwork faster. Thats just me though.
There is a difference between being aggressive and assertive. You need to be assertive and respectfully tell this jerk you don't appreciate being treated like that. If it continues go above his head. no one should have to put up with that. If you go to HR and complain he can not fire you for reporting him.
