Your boss really could be killing you

We’ve all worked with bosses we hate. But according to this story I found in the Chicago Sun-Times, those very bosses we despise might actually be sending us to an early grave.

A new study says that emloyees whose managers are passive, inconsiderate and uncommunicative are more likely to suffer from heart attacks. Those who had a better opinion of their bosses were less likely to get heart disease, the Sun-Times story reported.

I’ve always thought that some offices and companies took years off our lives. Now there’s proof.

My advice? If you find yourself going to the doctor on a weekly basis, maybe it’s time, even in this terrible economy, to look for a new job.
