I have useless managers at work that like to try and bend the rules, and it gets hella on their nerves when I just outright ignore or argue with them because I know they’re wrong and that they can’t justify firing me. I recommend anyone else in that position humble those “above” them when possible.
It’s wild, actually. I got away with saying “this is why no one likes you” to one because they were the instigator after I’d annoyed them enough. Like they went to the next level up in management over it and got told they were the one in trouble lmfao
