It burns there soul dealing with me. I make them stand on their words from the top people to the bottom. I give them the most robotic monotone while they sitting there clearing turning colors because I am quiting procedures and regulations. They can't fukk with me I follow procedures that are documented and not some hearsay shyt. I don't do one on one conversations and my stand by is from another department. They don't control my promotions and my character is the building is untouchable. Its fear, feed on it, grow on their fear

The Truth
I’m trying to read my “team” now.. but I’m starting to realize this position was more than what was listed. That’s why it took months to fill it.

Everyone who works here now is either “retiring” or leaving altogether.. leaving me to try to figure most this goofy shyt out on my own.

I honestly don’t know if I have the mental energy to go through this again. It’s like I have to re-learn how to make the wheel and none of it is hands-on or technical at all.

I actually hope im reading everything wrong honestly, but I’m staying to myself just to observe. Thing I hate, is that there’s no direction for new folks to set the up not just for “success” per se, but more to keep shyt functioning. If I knew you were going to lose 90% of your staff in the next few months and I would have to be a “jack-of-all” trades, I probably would’ve passed or asked for money (which I might ask for more money).

As far as talking.. everything seems so business like in the things regarding me. I’m not a business like guy, so I’m worried about losing my cool.
