I love my job. I work for me.
I get time off when I want, I get paid bonuses, downside it the hours can be long and the boss can be a bit of a slave driver but he is generous in other areas.
I hated my previous job, corporate nonsense all the way with the added twist of lots of back stabbing and departmental one-up-man ship by complaining, lots of HR investigations into said complaints then all charges dropped. This went on all over the company and as I had an especially brown nose sort of boss who was also weak and didn’t have a fondness for backing up his team we were regularly dragged through HR crap because he “liked to do his washing in the open for all to see”
Strange as a year before I left and after the umpteenth investigation that went nowhere (just wasted every bodies time) I told him I would leave at some point and then he would have a smaller team and eventually, he would have no team at all and then he wouldn’t have a job, unless he grew a pair and started supporting his team.
Strange as I heard the other day he has no team. Still got a job though. Everyone has left or transferred to other departments. Guess its only a matter of time.
Martymac, sounds like you work for my old boss!
