Mgt, why put a spin on it?

Published

I don't get why management feels that have to put a phoney, happy spin on the latest load of bs they are selling. We can see through it and it is insulting. Vent over. :D

That they twist something crappy into something happy. "Well I wouldn't exactly call it working alone I mean there is the housekeeper stocking the linen closet just for you and gee next month on the 17th I assigned you a tech". :down:

Please just tell me the truth!

They do it because they will be fired if they don't. Being a middle manager is a really hard job -- in part, because of having to do BS stuff like that.

I totally agree and wouldn't want their job however I would much rather them just be honest. "Yup it stinks, you are short staffed again, do the best you can" would buy way more respect than "Short staffed? I don't know why because the staffing arrangement allows for two more techs" and I'm thinking, "thanks for the newsflash now where the hell are they?" :uhoh3:
