I ask because my bosses are fucking disasters to work with. They never know what they have in stock, they're so fucking slow to get anything done, they have no filing system whatsoever for important documents and they're so messy that they make my toilet bowl after Mexican night look like a plate clean enough to clean off of.
We get the most done when they're not there, and by we I mean me and three teenagers who are still in secondary school. We have to come in every morning and sort out their mess for minimum goddamn wage.
So yeah, my bosses suck. Are yours any different? Could they actually work a wage job?
This really isn't to say anything about the people who are bosses in general, but I have noticed that most of the bosses I've had have only gotten to that position because they've been able to jump through all sorts of hoops/smooth talk their way up to that position through connections and straight up dumb luck
From what I've seen, rarely are bosses in their positions because they're the "best" at what they do. It's all a stupid, career-climbing game and some are just better at playing it than others
Managers are selected by executives because they will maintain the existing power dynamic. Their effectiveness at their position is irrelevant because the people in charge would rather liquidate the organization and move on once it no longer represents a significant profit. The effectiveness of the organization and the lives of the people who operate it are of no consequence.
