Many people complain that their bosses are too difficult to deal with, often leaving them feeling depressed and with headaches. According to a long-term study from Sweden, employees who encounter bad bosses may indeed have shorter lifespans, as they are more prone to heart disease compared to the general population. The longer they work under such bosses, the higher the risk of developing heart disease.

A good boss can lead you to heaven, while a bad boss might send you to the hospital early. According to research from Stockholm University in Sweden, if a boss is too difficult, employees have a 25% higher chance of developing heart disease than the general population. If the working period exceeds four years, this risk significantly increases to 60%, which is more dangerous than smoking, lack of exercise, or being overweight. This is because the stress from a bad boss increases hormones like lipids and adrenaline in the blood, leading to higher blood pressure and naturally increasing the risk of heart disease.

According to surveys, employees most fear their immediate superiors lacking decision-making abilities. Additionally, being autocratic, biased, and difficult to communicate with can drive people crazy. However, unless one has accumulated good karma from past lives, finding a wise and flawless boss is harder than winning the lottery. Especially in tough times, one must endure even the most difficult bosses to make a living. Therefore, experts suggest that instead of praying for the boss to change, it's quicker to adjust one's own mindset.

Of course, if one is fortunate enough to encounter a good boss, it's crucial to hold onto them tightly, as they can reduce your risk of heart disease by 40% compared to others. (Comprehensive report from Min News)
