I’m a solid manager. I started my current job about 5 months ago. I don’t think the staff I inherited had ever worked under anyone halfway decent. Three months in I was still reassuring my team that I wasn’t trying to replace them, I was only hiring people because we were grossly understaffed. Two months later we’re fully staffed, no one has been fired, and they finally trust me.
It’s fucking tragic how poorly most managers do their jobs.
Lemmy is full of kids for whom “management” means the asshole they worked under at McDonalds.
Solid managers shield their people from the bullshit and help them move forward and up.
