Learn to promote yourself; it is irritating when you don't have a supportive supervisor who helps you develop you, but the best case is to find a proper mentor and champion, work to promote yourself (continue to do what you do, improve upon it, and show others-- not just your boss-- what you're capable of, and your worth at the workplace). As for the lies, sometimes polite, professional confrontation is necessary, but at the worst case, find another workplace that is more suitable (which I know, is easier said than done). |

Well first of all, allow yourself some credit for having more ethics than your "boss." This person will be exposed, if he/she has not been already. Keep doing what you're doing and say nothing. When your boss is exposed you will be a hero for not saying anything and everyone will see you deserved the respect, recognition & maybe even the position. BUT, I would be looking fo another job. Again, say nothing to co-workers. |

You will not be able to reconcile that. You will not ever be happy there. You might as well deal with that now. |

You have two very different issues going on. Taking credit for your work is a common practice for any manager or boss. He/She hired you, or wanted you to be a part of their team, or you're just there by any of a hundred circumstances. So of course any accomplishment on your part justifies the decision to keep you employed.
One small bit of comfort may be knowing that your bosses superiors might very well be aware of where the ideas and talent lie in that individuals group, department, or whatever.
As to the lying behind your back, and I mean no disrespect, but if it is outright lying, that is a huge HR concern. I'm going to assume it is all work only related. The best, and really, only way to go, is to document everything you do. There should be nothing on your desk or computer that is not work related. Unless there's a death in the family, or your house is burning down, no personnel calls. Remember also that coworkers are just that, and nothing more while at work. Friends, and showing any special treatment towards, just leads to the dreaded office gossip mill. |

It sounds like getting credit for your work is really important to you. I think you need to have a better reason for working than getting credit for your work. Being happy with a job starts with being pleased with the work you are doing. If what you are doing doesn't please you, then why should getting credit for it? If what you are doing Does please you, then you'll be happy doing it, and that should answer your question.
Summary: Make sure the work itself makes you happy. If it doesn't, try something else. |

Sounds like it's time to find a new job. Your boss is a jerk and he/she will probably never change. |

Ask your Boss...he will say that's what bosses are suppose to do ...represent thier employees. There are very few Bosses who give away credits to their employees. As long as you are getting paid for your job, know that's an appreciation for your work. |

That would make it difficult. The best thing to do is keep track of the work you do-- keep proof. Then when he/she tries to take credit, say, "oh, you're mistaken-- I did that part!" Keep repeating for every part you did until everyone involved gets the picture and can look at your proof to see you're not the lazy one. See, you can get fired if it looks like you're just doing nothing while "bossy-credit-thief" takes the credit. Don't let it happen. Besides, you'll likely be happier and may even get a promotion. |

You need to make sure everyone knows you did the work before the boss sees it. |

stop listening to he said she said and make up backup copies of your work with a date stamp on it so if your boss does this again you can go behind his back to prove the idea was yours... |

Try to outsmart your boss by being a bit opaque in your job.Dont share the details with him....though you can forward the results.Rest is upto you depending on the nature of job.
If he still bugs,write down this letter......
Dear Boss,
F$#K Yourself for your wickedness.
Yours faithfully;

It's time to jump ship...unless you have solid evidence that your boss is acting in an unprofessional manner so that you can file a harassment claim, then you should resign and leave the company...not however, before you speak to a superior you can trust to insure that you will not receive a poor reference, which will harm your ability to obtain new employment. |

act as if you are happy that will irritate him. live your life. cause if you are a good person then he will get his karama. sometime go direct to your second boss and show him your work.
this nicer than thou attitude will upset him and he might stop the bad. |

That EXACT same thing happened to me at my previous job. I finally got fed up and quit. My district managers called asking why I quit and I explained everything to them about my supervisor. He was demoted and eventually had to quit his job as well. It was actually a good thing for me since I hated that job anyways. |

One way is too let other employees know what it is your working on and if your boss is making false accusations about you at the workplace ask other employees if they think the same thing if so make it known throughout the workplace that his behavior does not have to be tolerated. Go over his head if possible. |
