I feel your pain Sigguy. Going through a bit of that myself. Constantly proving and validating things I knew before the little prick was born. Maybe an engagement survey would help. "The days are stacked against what we think we are." Jim Harrison | |||

/Raises hand Yeah, me too. Except I'm a little further down the timeline and didn't jump ship fast enough. I was stupid enough to try to actually make it work. My wife talked me into not resigning until I had something else lined up, and a week later, the hammer came down. A week before Thanksgiving. Really, it's for the better. I'm not wading through human waste in downtown Tacoma and not stressing about the kind of numbers Shenzhen started throwing at us once our little boutique cork-sniffer company sold their soul to the devil. "Oh, you want to septuple your OEM business and just pass that workload to the existing staff without support and just tell them to work faster?" Brilliant strategy. They get to burn out a new unit instead. Maybe actually hire some fucking bodies to make the goods instead of forcing six people out of a company of 20 to work like cotton-picking slaves. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

They have those surveys every year. When the company gets hammered on a question they don’t try to solve the problem, the question gets reworded or removed from the survey. Their exit interviews are also a joke. It’s like screaming at a deaf person. | |||

Guys in my dept have been arguing with our managers for over a week about an issue. I brought proof that the managers were wrong. Got called a liar for my trouble. Exit strategy is now being put in place. | |||

You know, part of what I really like about my job is that I'm largely self-managing. My boss is there for me if I need something (help, guidance, tools, or a purchase order), but knows that I'll "handle it," whatever "it" is, until i need help. And that I'll ask for help when I need it. He leaves me alone to manage my day and our department's intern, tosses a project at me when he needs help, and lets things run smoothly. I really can't complain about that! God bless America. | |||

What will happen is that he will be reported to the Authorities as a threat to himself or others. What he really needs is another therapist with the skills to help him resolve his issues and they can be very difficult to find. IMO what Rtquig needs to do is 1) get out of New Jersey, that state is poison. Two, relocate to an area where he will enjoy the weather, have interesting things to do, and consider getting involved in some public service projects such as delivering meals to seniors or teaching children and adults how to read. Yeah, I know, it sounds like "feel good liberal stuff" but my father did the meals on wheels bit after he retired and even though he was a lifelong republican he found great satisfaction in providing help to those who needed it and appreciated his efforts. He also enjoyed just chatting with the many new friends he met. Basically do something that makes you feel good about yourself and you'll benefit in more ways than you can imagine. I've stopped counting. | |||
