"I didn't like or respect my boss and I'm sure that I didn't try nearly as hard as I thought I was to hide that fact. There were places I could've - and should've - compromised with her but chose not too. I didn't give 100% because I didn't like her."  This was my BIGGEST fault as an admin.  It was THE reason why I couldn't succeed at being one.  I worked for people who I simply had no respect for (I'm talking about types that stole money from the company and tried to get people fired for no reason), and I'm not the type who can hide my feelings.   Something I'm still trying to work on.  My only solution is to work with someone I respect or work for myself.  I agree with whoever said you should have left as soon as you found out what kind of person she was-Lord knows, I would have spared myself grief a few times.  But what's done is done, and you grew from it and moved on.
