But we also need to know the "boss" origin, was he/she a passionate/hardworking/skillful person to obtain that position? So was that person parachute in when summon by their family members?

Lots of considerations there, but I guess generally, "bad" females bosses are usually paratroopers.

I am male, I dun get to work with many females because i am an "engineer". But when I do, they are always the marketing and sales people who thinks ipod was summoned and materialized out of the mouth of steve jobs. Those female, not my boss, i dun like them.

BTW: Micro manage is good, I wished I have someone controlling me like a robot, then i dun have to use my brain.
Dude. You won t be enjoying micro managing when you are really being micro managed. Imagine I have female friends working backroom, the female boss even control the skirt length they can wear. Once step into office at 8am no food at all, even if you ve not had breakfast.

I ve friends in sales the female bosses ask them to report sales figures 3-4 times a day everyday. Down to the products they ve sold and clients they have met and time of appointments. Meetings that can go on for 1-2 hours. And msgs that come come in during weekends as well.

My suggestion for you is go try a change in company. Experience working under a female boss and be micro managed. Than you can say whether you enjoy it or not.
