Deffo. It sucks because I feel like people are given the “manager” title without ever being trained properly. Usually if the manager is a good person naturally is when it works.

And that would be why I left my last job.

Agh, I’m sorry to hear that!

I am all too familiar with this lol. At one point I had a manager that wanted a daily check in. And sometimes we would meet at the end of day on Friday and early morning Monday and I would have no updates to share lol

That’s absolutely wild! Not to mention a massive waste of time. Just trust that people are gonna get on with it, don’t need someone breathing down my neck..
