9. Your Boss Has No Empathy

We are all human. There will be times when we have to take off work. Maybe someone has passed away in the family or there is another type of crisis. Your boss should understand that every single person is going to eventually run into these types of problems. They should respond with compassion and empathy. If they respond with hostility instead, that is a huge red flag.
