Why are we no longer holding incompetence accountable in both sectors and demanding good management? The public and employees just sit and back and allow complete idiots to run the entire country into the ground and never speak up in droves

So your thesis is that everyone in management in the US are pretty much bad and "trash" and "idiots".

Tough week at work?

Fear of retaliation, getting cancelled, getting fired, losing friends, having family turn on you, too busy living their own life, etc.


...and most importantly, not enough competent, non-trashy people to choose from.

Get with woke program!

Punctuality, professionalism, accountability, timely completion of tasks, quality of work - all racist!

Complaining about these things only shows you are a white supremacist.

Obviously, you need to attend the Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity training programs that your woke HR dept offers and buy into the brainwashing.

Because they are signing the paychecks. That is a VERY powerful spell to break.

I do however agree with you. After 20 years working in management at 3 Fortune 500's, I left to start my own business.

Why? Because I knew most of my of my former bosses were not very bright, so it gave me confidence that I could do better.

I succeeded, made a lot more $ than I did working for them, and semi-retired at age 55.

I could write a book about my former bosses incompetence, & abuse...verbal, psychological, sexual, & physical.

To this day, I cannot figure out how they got hired, how they got into middle management for a Fortune 500 making 6 figures, and how they retained their jobs for so long.

They presented well, and were slick talkers, is the best I can do.

I, on the other hand, just happen to be a superpremist, which I believe, makes me unhireable.

The times have changed.

May not be just me - lots a jobs just ain't been getting filled:

Premise

" an assertion or proposition which forms the basis for a work or theory: the fundamental premise of the report."

You know, back when you were impaling Trump on an hourly basis, I never suspected that I would ever agree with you post Trump. Oh well. Stranger things have happened.

To the point, I don't see how normal people can tolerate trash in any position of power (government, private, or otherwise). But, most seem to be a-okay with it.

Management is boring, unstimulating, and often unethical work. In order to stick with it there has to be an upside. For many that is the thrill of controlling others, which naturally attracts sociopaths.
