Today, my boss confirmed he is a micro-managing asshole. We walked into the office together and I turned on the lights. He switched them off and switched them on again, just to make sure that I did it right. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, like every day, my boss was complaining about something or other, but this time it was work that I knew he'd done himself, and he still blamed me. FML
Today, my boss flipped me off in traffic on my way to work. FML
Today, my boss yelled at me for leaving on time. After months of management hounding us about our overtime, I get in trouble for doing what I was supposed to do. FML
Today, I started at my new job. Turns out my boss is a complete douchebag. He spent most of the day looking over our shoulders and making cuntish comments about our work, then called a guy a piece of shit for farting, and forced him to spray disinfectant on his chair. FML
Today, I went to deliver some reports to my boss in his office. He was facing away from me and ranting about his "useless employees", so I slipped in and waited for him to put the phone down. Turns out he was talking to himself. When he noticed me, he bitched me out and threatened to fire me. FML
Today, my boss was being a total asshole. While in the bathroom, he turned his back on me, so I gave him the finger, mouthed obscenities, and pantomimed stabbing him with a knife. He was looking in the mirror and saw everything. FML
Today, at work, I was on the toilet for so long the motion lights turned off. I stood up, pants around my ankles and began waving my arms above the stall to get them to turn on again. At that exact moment, my boss walked in. FML
Today, my boss continued to orchestrate behind the scenes with my colleagues to make me look bad for her lack of organization. Then she showed up 10 minutes late to a meeting, shared that she needed a vacation, and realized that she needed to micromanage less. I've been asking her to make that change for months. FML
Today, my boss reprimanded me for a huge screw-up that he was responsible for. FML
Today, we had a surprise party for my boss. Someone turned out all the lights. I was so scared of the dark, the first thing my boss saw when he walked in was all my co-workers watching me scream, "TURN IT ON!" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hopefully he doesn't follow you into the bathroom to make sure you shake it right.

I can sympathize with him. Lights are really hard until you get this one weird trick down: if a light has been properly turned on, you'll notice the bulb in the circuit completed by the switch emitting light.

Maybe they have OCD and can't help it?

Was thinking that...don't have diagnosed OCD myself but I get really paranoid about my straighteners being off and my door being closed...I often turn them on and off and open and close the door multiple times, even when I can see they're off or sometimes not even plugged in....can't help it.

There's a difference between OCD and being a micro managing asshole. He actually admits to being the 2nd one. **** that. What a dick move regardless of having OCD or not.

He hasn't admitted to being anything? Op said they "confirmed" it, not admitted it. The "make sure you did it right" could still be OCD. They have a certain routine, and if something is off its EXTREMELY a stressful for them.

Severe OCD is not something you can help. Some people with OCD have to repeatedly enter a doorway if they don't do it correctly. Or have certain routines that they get severely ticked off if they're broken.

For the love of everything good, when insulting someone please use proper English or you're just going to look incompetent.

I don't think firing your boss is normally an option

Well? Did you do it right?

AFAIK, that is OCD behavior, not just micro-managing.
