What would you do? I work as a virtual office admin. Almost every single time I have to deal with my boss, which is either through email or whatsapp messages, it becomes so toxic that I think I have to quit, but then when I am not dealing with him, the job is lovely.
Im a grown woman, actually by many years to my boss, and he makes me cry sometimes and other times when we send messages, makes me feel stupid and that I am wrong (and sometimes like I am a child being reprimanded), even when I am not.
I dont know how many times to juts let this happen because the actual job is great.
I dont deal with him every day or even every week, but when I do, its not fun at all.

Anyone who works from home have any insight?

I don't work from home, but I have had a somewhat toxic boss situation.

If it were me, and it were only a twice or so a month interaction, and otherwise I liked the job and the pay, I'd probably keep it. But different people have a different tolerance for toxic people, so it really depends how badly it's affecting you.

Is he only toxic when he's reprimanding you? Not to sound mean, but do you make a lot of mistakes? Or is he just always a jerk regardless?

I would polish my resume and look for another job, I wouldn’t quit until I found one. Work from home jobs are hard to find.

There’s toxic in which your stress levels are high and it’s really affecting you, your self esteem, your daily life. There’s a whole spectrum. Different than an annoying or not good boss. Weigh the pros and cons

Can you write him back and shut him down or CC his manger while you ask about the tone of the communication? When someone isn't nice to me consistently, I call them on it.
