We need better managers

My manager shows flashes of competence but mostly lives in reaction mode. When things go south he's more likely to add pressure than solutions. I wish leadership training came with the job. Imagine where we would be if we had management that was actually competent.

@a9 It's fine. Once the one-finger problem is fixed, then the rest of the 4 fingers will be fine automatically.

Remember when you are pointing the finger, there are two pointing back. Take ownership, light your own fires, stop relying on someone else.
