They are in a place to easily make your life miserable moreso than you can make theirs. Do whatever you need to do to stay employed or move on if it's more important for you to get along with everyone that you work with.

You are the social guy, older manager frawn upon that especially if they see you making friends and goof around rather then doing your job. If you hate most of your managers then there is either something wrong with this job, something is wrong with all the managers or something is wrong with you?! I think you can pretty much check of every catagory.

Act towards them in a positive way and treat them with respect. Managers are people too and they tend to mirror other's behaviour. If you make them feel good by working hard and being positive towards them, they will also treat you the same. If this doesn't work and they are just d1cks and this job ain't worth it then quit.

Whenever you come across managers whom you find distasteful, at least try to understand where they are coming from. Rather than wonder how you should behave around them, make a learning experience out of it. Take their objections and criticisms to heart, think about them, and maybe become a better employee and perhaps even a better person. They might be wrong but they might be right.
 

You essentially upped your VALUE in her eyes by showing her that, if she wants you, she has to at times do things that you like to do. You are SOMETHING after all. You are NOT FREE. If she wants to hang with you, it's going to cost her something — time, effort, money.

*evil manager uses Drain Happy Force*
*you counter by Hitting on Hot Chick and Gaining Phone Number*
*Manager gives you extra work flipping french fries*
*You start throwing french fries at another cutie, and she starts throwing them back*
*Manager gets pissed off and tells you to take out the trash*
*You take out trash and take a break, notice 5 set in Van, approach and hits off well*
*Manager walks out and starts screaming at you to stop talking to hot chicks*
*You get numbers from girls and tell them your manager can't pickup any girls *wink**
*You get fired*
*You hit on his daughter and he catches you in bed with her*
*Marrys her*
*Manager hates his life

Another reason why managers shouldn't hate :D
