Bad bosses are like magicians—except instead of pulling rabbits out of hats, they make your requests, raises, and vacation days disappear. Ask for a well-deserved promotion? Poof!—budget cuts. Need a day off for a family emergency? Abracadabra!—"We really need all hands on deck." Catch them in an obvious mistake? Ta-da!—"That's actually how I meant to do it." And the best trick of all? Convincing themselves they're the best boss ever, while you're Googling "how to fake my own disappearance and start a new life."
Can you not look at me like that?

The Philip Green inquiry into the collapse of British Home Stores (BHS) in 2016 was a highly publicized investigation by the UK Parliament, scrutinizing the role of the retail tycoon in the demise of the company. After selling BHS for just £1 to Dominic Chappell, a businessman with no retail experience, the company went into administration, leaving a £571 million pension deficit and affecting thousands of employees. The inquiry, led by MPs, accused Green of neglecting his responsibilities and prioritizing personal gains over the welfare of BHS workers. As a result, he faced significant public and political pressure, ultimately agreeing to pay £363 million to help fill the pension deficit. The scandal damaged Green's reputation, raising broader concerns about corporate governance and the ethical responsibilities of business owners.
