But again, you don't know what all they need to consider when making
decisions.
What you might think as small and inconsequential can have repercussions
that a good manager needs to take care of. Sometimes the manager cannot
discuss them due to confidentiality issues or the like.
That said, I am not defending poor management.
I've worked with plenty of jerks.
All they cared about was how big their head was.
If I didn't implement exactly what *they* thought I should, it was wrong
and I killed the cat.
Don't work under someone like that.
Just remember this...
Think about how annoying it is to have co-workers second guess your
decisions (I'm not talking about management here).
I bet you appreciate feedback when you miss something. You actually
want that type of feedback - it helped you do a better job.
But those who disagree and grumble with your decisions are just annoying
and it hurts your relationship with them - both professionally and
personally - which hurts the company.
Now, how do you think a manager feels when you grumble about their
decisions.
Sometimes management makes a poor decision as a mistake - you do as
well. But it does not make you incompetent.
Later... Tom
