zadojla Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 I found myself in a position similar to Zads over a decade ago, promoted to manage 30+ people & then my bosses started telling me to be mean to people & threaten their jobs etc. It wasn't more than a few months before I was in a mental ward, dehydrated, undernourished, & utterly a wreck. I have never recovered.My situation is not dissimilar. I run a shift with nine people on it. I have had my job threatened if I don't know exactly what everyone is doing, and if they are doing it correctly, in real time. I asked for an explanation how I can possibly do that, which I did not get. It made me laugh, which did not please the boss at all.I'm not autistic, but as I get more unhappy, I'll just stop performing, and lose my job.Oddly, my guys respect me and do as I instruct them. I know how to manage teams and get results, but that doesn't seem to be doing me any good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted April 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 ___In spite of it all, the little gems one does stumble upon, like Hypography here, seem reason enough to suspect more lie ahead. In a Tit For Tat world, I have no reason to believe I'm not getting what I'm due. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
