how to deal with micro-manager/bully?

I work at this little call center and one of the bosses is a total asshole. He's always yelling about nothing, making threats like, "I'm going to send you home early without pay if you don't ____".. and doesn't LET us take a break if we're even slightly behind on our work. I even heard him threaten to harm someone physically if they didn't stop annoying him.

He won't even let us get water within the first 2 hours of the shift. This really pisses me off because since we're talking constantly, we drink a lot of water since our mouths get dry. Of course I get water before work, but I usually drink it all within the first hour or so.

How do you deal with a manager like this? Going to HR isn't really an option since they're assholes too (what a wonderful job!)

    What you describe is a toxic environment for you to be in. Ultimately, you should consider getting out.

    In the meantime, you should understand your workplace rights under EEOC regulations. Go to www.eeoc.gov and read about harassment and discrimination. If after you read this you believe that your situation meets the legal threshold, adn you have taken the steps you need to try and solve this internally, consider filing a complaint. this is especially true if other coworkers are subject to hearing or the direct recipient of this behavior.
