Upper Management

Is it just me (and it usually is), or does it almost always seem like the people in places of power (vocationally speaking) are… shall we say… less than impressive?

Yes. You’re right. I had a hard time being more civil & less descriptive with that one.

I mean no offense to any one person… at least no one I know personally who might be reading this… but – from personal experience – I always seem to land directly under the one person who will aggravate me the most.

The one person who – at that moment in time – seems to have been born knowing their sole purpose in life on this planet was to make MY life as miserable and as frustrating as possible while we are circulating in the same business sphere.

Is this because I was built to steer my own ship – to be the master of my own self – to be the one leading the herd and giving the orders?

Or is it because I’m excessively difficult and can’t deal with anyone else telling me what to do?

(Shutup)

I know I detest orders from someone other than myself. That’s got to be why I was a pro at being fired by the tender age of 19.

But there also has to be a reason for being that naturally “difficult” aside from JUST BEING naturally difficult, which – yes, Virginia – we all know that I am.

I am currently sitting here and typing to you on “company time”. The upper eschelons of this current business brain trust are – no surprise – also not inspiring great respect from me.

I won’t go into the how’s and why’s of everything they are doing that they shouldn’t be and everything else that they dropped the ball on and aren’t doing at all. None of us have that kind of time.

But once again – here I sit – irritated by someone else’s inept handling of a situation that I feel I would pretty much knock out of the park had I the opportunity and a big enough bat.

At how many balls must I violently swing before I get a free walk??
