Power trippers are highly annoyed by people who aren't concerned about their power tripping. Highly.

Do what you do best. Don't lose sleep over it. Tomorrow is another day. (insert any other GWTW quotes as would be fitting)

[Ferd]

1. Document
2. don't give him anything to use against you
3. be patient.

Time is usually the great equalizer. Sometimes a new boss thinks he has to assert himself. over time he will chill out as he becomes more comfortable in the role.

If the boss is really a problem, they are likely over their head and time will expose them.

but document everything because the day may come where you have to defend or explain.

I'm just sneaking back in here to smack FERD upside the head for all those times he ran into threads and pulled our pony tails.

Maybe he's just insecure and needs to some bacon.

Agree with this 100%
