A number of factors.

• Trying to persuade HR that your manager is a domineering jerk holds the prospect of being a stressful process.
• Being on welfare is a stressful state.
• Looking for a job is a stressful process.
• It isn't always apparent during one's employment interview that one's prospective manager is a domineering jerk.
• Sometimes the domineering jerk becomes one's manager after one has commenced employment, due to promotions, org chart reshuffles, etc.
