To people in shitty jobs, I feel you. Mine isn't too shitty but a lot of the people there are. It used to be a fun place to work but the fun people left and the cunts took over. My place has a ridiculous amount of managers and then another layer of managers above them before you get to the directors. Our money raised has been going down for years yet they keep creating new managerial positions by upgrading current members of staff whose face fits ie been to Oxford or Cambridge, upper middle class, thinks the sun shines out of the chairman's arse and the organisation can do no wrong.
A lot of the managers have zero managerial experience but are experts in paper shuffling to look busy. I don't understand why at least half of these people haven't been fired, yet my manager gets a fuckton of shit despite being one of the better ones there. They asked him to make £100k of cuts from this financial year only two weeks ago. Where the fuck was he supposed to magic that up from? I told him to make me redundant but he declined :-(
I'm expecting to go back to a shitstorm next week as I made a few comments on my appraisal alluding to the above bollocks and the director has gone mental! She tried to get my manager to give it back to me to rewrite but he refused. It's all now been signed off but in her comments, it seems like she's suggesting there may not be a role for me soon. I hope so anyway as that was the point of my comments. Alternatively, she may be referring to the temporary promotion I've been doing for the last year. Losing that would be a bitch but if it paves the way for a pay off, it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.
