I guess we've all dealt with morons at the workplace. I too, was extremely frustrated at one place I worked, not by a supervisor, but by someone lower than me on the totem pole, not even in my department, who yielded much more power than V.P.s in the office. This bitch barely had a high school education, and was as pleasant as a rabid porcupine who'd just been sprayed by a skunk, but she had the wool pulled over an E.V.P.'s eyes (who himself was manic depressive with a Napoleonic complex), and everyone was powerless to do anything but suffer. No less than THREE V.P.s left the place within 14 months, due mostly to those two idiots.

I was not aware of the corporate politics/dynamics of the place when I took the job. Had I known, I would have NEVER taken it. (BTW, I stayed there only 9 months myself.) You're MUCH better off passing on a (known) situation like this. It would only cause you misery.

I don't know what this accomplished (other than mildly therapeutic for me)...put it in the "Misery Loves Company" file.

On to better things...like drinking!

Hold me closer, tiki dancer.
