I had similar experience but not to your extreme (daily report etc)

From what I recall, this micro manager always wants to prove results and improvements so he/she comes down hard on the associates and makes you really busy. While he has no brilliant idea or vision on his own, he/she loves to steal some of your idea (from your daily report).

All in all, this type of person often pretends to be busy as well and bs all the way through for "his" concrete and measurable results.
