Had a boss at a fast paced and teeny tiny (3 employees) print shop. Guy wanted to provide A+ customer service all the time, which I respected. Problem is, he didn't have confidence that any of us could do it, even though his employees were SPECIALISTS in various areas that he, well, wasn't that good at.

End result, he'd check every single job after you finished it and come back with inane questions. Did a lot of over the shoulder co-piloting (hello, halitosis!). Generally caused anxiety, slipped deadlines (cuz we spent too much time doing twice instead of just getting it done), general hatred of the job.

Saw him drive off a whole passel of talented employees, myself among them. Business kind of tanked after that and was sold to someone who was less micromanagey.
