bad manager, what to do

by louis29 . Updated 20 years, 6 months ago

I’ve been in my current position for very nearly 12 months. I work in a small IT department, me and my boss. Its my bosses first management position and i’ve got to be honest he’s not very good at it. Things have been getting more and more strained between us because I get that he doesn’t trust me, He never delegates, and can never take my word for something he always has to go back and check and do things his way. Recently he has started picking me up on even the smallest things even things that aren’t my fault. Its got to the point now where it’s starting to effect my life inside and outside of work. My confidence and motivation has gone and i come home from work and it just winds me up even more!!! What should i do? I’m currently looking for a new position but with no confidence its quite difficult to sell yourself in an interview. If i was to hand my resignation in, how do i explain it to future employers. Or what would people views of taking 6 months off then travelling be. Im 24 years of age with 2 years commercial experiance
