Perhaps the best strategy would be to listen more and speak less for minimum bounces!

 Will try to avoid him most of the time, and contact him only for necessary issues.

If the manager has a character like the above then the best policy is to do your job but spend as little as possible time with him/her. I don't think though that the employee could stay a long time in this job (I lasted for about one year, it was the most painful working experience in my life).

The challenge is to do what we do not like. Adapt the matter.

Concentration on our own work

Interactions only for requirements.

Be pleasant and happy

Approach him firmly

Greet him in the morning

Support him in a more generous way for the work which require additional skill.

Do not ask for permissions except under rare cases.

Do not much entertain your colleagues at your seat

Treat him as if your brother-- keep this in mind ---to remain with the work so long as you can
