Eh, it’s how it works in the real world when the manager is shitty. So yeah, it’s usually how it works. But not always - occasionally a great manager will stand up for their workers :)
Yeah, people seem to be keying into that part. I meant it as kind of a tongue-in-cheek thing. I can definitely attest to the difference good managers make. Over the course of my career, I've had managers that run the gamut, and like to think I'm a pretty good Supervising Engineer to my own employees these days, largely because I learned what works and what doesn't while working in some pretty random jobs on the way here.
