Sometimes too many cooks in the kitchen

My boss was a very stubborn and condescending person sometimes. He never actually (I believed) understood the position and team that he was a presiding over. He even said that, "I was never a project analyst, so I don't know how to do what you guys do as well as you." He preached an "Open Door Policy" but I never felt that he actually meant that, because if you wanted to stop by his office to get his blessing to do something or ask him a question, he'd always treat you like you were just getting in his way and he never had time to talk to you. It was very frustrating to listen to the way he treated his peers on the phone and in meetings as well. It always felt like he had a chip on his shoulder and the most mundane issue would set him off.
