Does he/she have a temper, pick on you or maybe brings his/her home troubles to work?

It's like working for Mr. Spacely, crossed with Cy-Kill.

No. My former boss was too stupid. My former AP is downright evil. Like three complaints to the Union last year alone, not one of them mine and all validated evil.
My former principal is too stupid to see the reality of this Adolf (the AP). She has fallen for his trap.

My last full-time job. I reported to an undiagnosed, unmedicated person with Bipolar Disorder. It was like working for Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, with a pinch of sadism thrown in. She was a mess. I resigned that job finally, the whole company was a toxic environment. I think I had a touch of PTSD for a while after.
I've had two part-time jobs since then; both bosses were great.

So, fuck him.

In 26 years at ATT/NY Tel/NYNEX (now Verizon) I had an incredible number of supervisors (and I often had to deal with THEIR supervisors).
I never had a woman boss, and got along with about 4/5ths of my bosses, some of which had been my friends as craftsmen.
Don't remember having a 'mean' supervisor, although some of their supervisors were heartless pricks (more than likely a job requirement).
I had some that were idiots, some that I had to teach the job to, and some that were just looking to get laid. That last description fits my last boss, who of course was married.
I was going out with a woman that worked for the company as management, and my boss came onto her at some conference out of town.
When the woman told me he had been quite disgusting in that come on, I put fliers throughout the 22 floor building, describing the incident, but only using his name, to emabarrass him, prevent him from getting another promotion, and hopefully have someone who hated him leak it to his wife.
He thought it might be me, and he went to my Chief Steward to arrange a sitdown, which I refused, knowing this guy was only going to bullshit me.
My Chief Steward convinced me to talk with him about it, so bullshit me he did, as I bullshitted him about having no knowledge of anything he was talking about.
The story finishes with me about two weeks from retirement, and this guy approaching me about the NEW flier that was currently circulating the building. The PRICK must have done it again, and someone followed my example. That made me proud.

Yes. Gets really cranky if the food bowl isn't absolutely full or if the litter box is less than pristine.

Usually no but I have seen her explode a few times (not at me). Sometimes she asks for our feedback or input about something and if we're being honest and it's something she doesn't want to hear, she gets an attitude. You can see the shift in her mood. She definitely can't handle constructive criticism and takes work related stuff personally and seems to view it as a personal attack when it's nothing of the sort.
Outside of that, she does seem to be a nice person and takes a genuine interest in how things are going with us both personally and professionally.

Once my boss got into a coworker's face and shouted:
"Listen, motherfucker. You're here to make me fucking money, asshole. And you'll fucking do what I say!"
No, that never happened...
