Actually a lot, but I will mention only a few. First is you will be built to be a strong employee of the company because of the everyday challenges that was being provided to you by your bad boss. Second is you will know how to handle a hard boss and know what will keep him you up by working hard every day to convince him that you are the one who is suitable for that job. Third is the patient, you will learn how to get your patient work much better when it comes to your bad  boss. And last is your flexibility because bad boss never satisfied so you need to do better if ever there is a task to be given to you.
