Retards are in charge of everything.

Don't get me wrong. A lot of the workers are also retarded but there are also lots of talented individuals.

But 100% of the management at all companies I have worked at are retarded narcissists that actively destroy the company and spend all day jerking each other off in endless meetings.

And there are so many fucking managers now. Every tiny department has like 3-4 managers and nobody knows what they fucking do all day. You bring an issue up to them or something that would improve the work situation and they look at you like you just killed their dog.

They also like to pretend they are doing something positive so they will implement some bullshit procedure like making everyone fill out safety cards every day and then draw fake graphs about how this made the workplace a gorillion percent safer. Its all a fucking clown circus.

And these retard managers absolutely cannot stand it if you won't kowtow to their egos.

And I don't even mean being disrespectful. I mean simply being an autonomous agent who doesn't blindly take bullshit.

Boss: "Hey, Bob in your department says you're not doing X task good enough. Do it better."

You: "I don't see an issue with how I'm doing task X. Here is a step by step walkthrough of how I do it from beginning to end. Explain to me what's wrong with it and what exactly I should change."

The boss freezes up. There was ever anything wrong with your performance. He was just carrying water for Bob because Bob is his fishing buddy, and Bob doesn't like you. He expected quiet deference to the instruction, not to be cross-examined by a subordinate. Midwit bosses *loathe* that—especially when said subordinate is more intelligent than them.

To that effect, they'd literally rather get rid of you and replace you with someone less competent in your position than let you continue to threaten their ego. Because the workplace isn't actually a business to them, it's just another social reward loop. No different from social media or talking about *le game last night.* Basically just the sequel to high school cliques.

This is why I rarely hold a job longer than a year despite doing my duties well. And most of these experiences for me have been in *trucking,* which is a notoriously antisocial industry. I don't even want to think about the hoops you would have to jump through to survive at an office job. I wouldn't last a month.

My father was a truck driver his whole life and he never got along with anyone in his life. He doesn't even get along with his sons. He's a narcissistic asshole though.


I work in an engineering department. It's the opposite of the scenario you've described.


I'm curious if it's the type of work that you do that creates those nepotistic environments? When I worked as a carpet installer, I definitely knew that all of the crew leads were there because they went to school with the manager.

Engineering sounds to me like one of those increasingly rare environments where a high level of competence in the substrate is *necessary* in order for it to function. No room to fill it with useless eaters and DEI unless you want your fucking bridges falling down. So I'd believe it.

I think part of the problem in my case is that my worst experiences out of my three longest running jobs were both at very small companies. I went in thinking smaller would equal more chill and less oversight. This was not true at all at company 1, and very true at company 2 in an operational sense, but company 2 had that social clique dynamic way stronger. If you didn't suck the right dicks, or slighted the wrong person, you were now on borrowed time. It was full of boomers who had been there for decades and young people who had literally been raised in the company (children of the drivers.)

The company where I lasted the longest and actually left on my own terms was one that was very corporate and zogged, and the boss was a guy who was super jaded and low affect. He'd climbed the corporate ladder while resenting the corporate atmosphere. He was a dick at points and sometimes egregiously negligent on safety matters, but he was actually a solid boss on the points being discussed. I argued with him head to head multiple times, which included instances where I outmaneuvered him, and that never converted to him making a move to get rid of me. And when I had an interpersonal conflict with a senior driver he actually mediated it impartially.

Ultimately, I think it really does just come down to luck of the draw on what kind of boss you get, but in my experience corporate environments are actually easier to be left alone in for trucking even with all the BS, driver cams, etc. Because it's so large and soulless, it's harder for managers to get personally invested and try running people's lives like they're a little dysfunctional family.

It's also worth mentioning that trucking is a *very* low IQ industry, both intellectually and emotionally, and being unapologetically articulate reads as alienating at best, and threatening at worst. I had my last boss snap at me "How about you tell me what that means? Since you're obviously so much smarter than me." after I used the term *non sequitur.* I don't really find interpersonal peers at these jobs.

It sounds like you're not working in an industry that intellectually challenges you, thus you find yourself challenging those around you.

If I were a boss of a company, which may occur in the future (through my game project), I'd appreciate people who are smarter and more competent than me, even though that is very unlikely. I'd have no ego about it - my goal is to make the game as good as possible, and everything around it as optimal as possible (servers running continuously, taxes to be at a minimum, etc).

If they can point out something I do badly or wrong, I'd change it. However if they come up with something nonsensical, I'd reject it firmly. I do have visions for the things I do, so I know what fits and what doesn't. And I can explain everything from first principles. And it's not even emerging from experience, that's simply how I am personality-wise.

Also no niggers, brownoids, kikery, faggotry, degeneracy, feminism, trannies and whatever else bullshit there is. I'd design things that move culture towards opposing these things. For example all players are White only.

Sounds like you understand the balance fairly well. Even intelligent and good-intentioned workers can try undermining you if you don't keep up a certain level of "what I say goes because I'm the boss." And that's just an animal brain function on their part, because we naturally test dominance hierarchies and see how much ground others will let us take from them. A good boss is kind of like a good parent. Willing to admit mistakes, but unwilling to let subordinates establish emotional leverage. Authoritative without tyranny.
