After Hours 26: Too many questions, too little confidence
About three months back, Raquel's company hired two new employees, and somewhere along the way she became the go-to person for any and all of their questions. But now a project on Raquel's team is over budget and behind schedule, and the new crew's inability to figure things out on their own has become a real problem. So how should she handle the situation when she talks to her boss? Then, Liz and Larry help a listener whose self-esteem issues at the office have turned into a vicious cycle. New to I Hate My Boss?

After Hours 24: Mandatory pillow fights and dress code double standards
Rey is dealing with one of the many double standards that exist between men and women in the office: the workplace wardrobe. In an otherwise great performance review, her boss said that she dressed like an airhead, and now that she's applying to a new job, she doesn't want to worsen her chances with a wardrobe faux pas. But does that mean the only correct choice is a stuffy black business suit? Then, another listener's new company is obsessed with office bonding, to the point of scheduling mandated pillow fights and "root beer float" time...outside of company hours. New to I Hate My Boss?

S1E28: What to do when it's time to move on
Last week, Liz and Larry went over their strategies for quitting a job in the best way possible; however, even when one is armed with all that good good knowledge, there are still so many weird things that can happen when you leave a job (voluntarily or otherwise). So on today's episode, our sages help out some listeners who are on the fence about quitting, or whose exits didn't go quite as planned. First, an employee's unsatisfied after falling off their boss's radar when they began working remotely, and Mark's in hot water with his current boss due to an automated job site snafu (not ZipRecruiter, don't worry!). Then, Laurel's management is keeping her in the dark while they restructure her role, and Ren's company wants her to lie about why she was let go. And one manager's worried that he'll "break up the band" when he leaves his team for a new gig. New to I Hate My Boss?

After Hours 15: Another freeze-out
Emilia was fed up with the communication issues she was having with her boss, so she made a mature decision and requested a meeting with him. It seemed like they’d hashed things out, but ever since then, her boss has been taking her projects and giving them to other people in the office. Liz and Larry offer their thoughts on how best to navigate this particular freeze-out. And Karen’s new boss has told her that she’s “too reserved” at work, and she doesn’t know how to respond.

After Hours 13: Leveraging that job offer
One of our listeners is in a pickle, but to be fair, it's an enviable one: he loves his job, but he got an offer from another company that includes a 30% raise. Not too shabby, right? Liz and Larry give their tips on how to leverage an outside offer at your current gig, and how to weigh the familiarity of your job against the unknown of a new one. Then, Manny writes in with a shocking story: he and his coworkers filled out an anonymous survey at the request of management, but the results weren't kept anonymous, and instead went directly to Manny's supervisor.

S1E11: Working through differences
We all know we’re different from each other, but what do we really think of people who aren’t like us? And how well do we work with them? At Penn & Pencil, the answer is not well at all - Matt is pigeonholed into working for a gay dating app, instead of a dude-heavy video game. Liz and Larry are in the hot seat, and share their results from the implicit bias test. I Hate My Boss’s creator and Wondery founder, Hernan Lopez, joins to talk about how those assumptions can impact work performance. Want to find out your own implicit biases? Take a test: it will blow your mind.

It drove Bill O'Reilly off the air, got L.A. Reid fired and sent Uber scrambling. Sexual harassment has dominated the news lately, but can it be stopped?

S1E9: Leaks, loyalty and trust
In the age of hacking, errant email and transparency experiments at work, it’s tough to feel completely at ease. Liz and Larry take a look at how trust in the workplace is built...and broken. At Penn & Pencil, Ivan’s leak of the entire comment box to a trade magazine prompts Stacey to do damage control. When employees only look out for themselves, how can a team ever be cohesive? Ancestry.com’s Janetta Wood talks to Larry about what employees and companies can do to curb blackmail and build loyalty.

S1E5: Work, life and hiding in the bathroom

At Penn & Pencil, Matt is frustrated at Ivan who either disregards his ideas or steals them. When Jessica helps him brainstorm, she points out the larger issue: Matt cares too much about work.
