I'm gonna assume you don't know any better. Not saying there aren't bad or stupid middle managers, but usually the middle manager is the person who got shoved into a "management" position they probably didn't want, and all they really get to do is take all the heat when decisions they didn't make blow up in their face. It also usually comes with false promises of raises but upper management never really intends on giving it.
It's like, top level squeezing the bottom out 101.
I'm pretty fucking sure you still have to apply to become a middle manager. You don't just evolve like a Pokemon.
They voluntarily became the manager's gofers because they're disgusting climbers and they get what they deserve. 🙂
I feel like all of your knowledge about “middle management” is derived from The Office.
I work for a living honey. My knowledge is derived from dealing with them.
