Producing output and making profit for your company doesnt matter to middle management. They will find a way to hate you and accuse you of being useless no matter what. I have never seen these MBA managers actually praise someone, let alone understood what their subordinates actually do
>>626786841. If you're not worthless they're not necessary2. What kind of child wants praise? Fuck praise, demand raise
>>62678695How can I get a promotion if they never acknowledge anything good anyone does?
>>62678684The office chair is an asset and you are a liability. That is how they think. Once you understand this then everything else starts to make sense.
>>626798181. Quit. If you're actually valuable they'll offer something2. Become indispensable. Doesn't usually work because nobody is actually indispensable3. Learn enough to start a competing company. Go do it. They'll hire you back as a manager or buy you out. Or sue you into bankruptcy Any way you do it requires skills and balls. And if you got those you would already have the promotion.
