Quizplus · Accepted Answer

It is not appropriate for a boss to scream and personally attack an employee. An employee should stand up for themselves and calmly let the boss know that personal attacks will not be tolerated. It is important to address the issue without escalating the situation and to have a conversation when emotions have calmed down. Option B may be considered if the behavior persists or is severe. Option A and C are not effective ways to handle this situation.
