> Based on your tone and the way you drive the conversation, I wouldn't be surprised if you are one of those narcissistic managers who think they are people leaders and think you are doing something important, while your reports probably think you are just a useless middleman, but can't voice it because of the power you hold over their career - which is the unfortunate reality.

So, “you’re a shitty person and everyone hates you because you disagree with me”? And you wonder why you’re not being taken seriously?

It absolutely cannot, but given that you haven’t articulated a single reason why you believe that’s true and have, instead, gone on another multi-line rant about how incompetent I must be, I don’t think you actually have any idea what you’re talking about.

In short, when all you’ve got is high-minded ideals and personal attacks, you might look in the mirror to discover the source of some of your frustration at work. It’s probably not your manager, no matter how stupid you think they are.
