I want to get into cybersecurity. I am willing to learn about it and do the job effectively. My dumbfuck cornfed manager said they want to make sure i have a “passion” for it. No, i will not think about cybersecurity day and night like i’m in love with it, you dumb fuck middle manager.
I was a middle manager for about a year and I definitely thought about how beneficial it would be to my staff if I was dead instead of being the mouthpiece for some executive shit heel.
That’s all middle managers are, people that either get naively tricked into thinking they can make it better, or people who believe in the corporate mantra and are really gung-ho about representing the fake ideals of some fat cat exec. I was the first one, and it completely changed my already cynical perspective cuz at the end of the day, I was still just a mouthpiece for some stooge in a suit.
