I hate new management
We got a new VP and naturally he wants to make a mark with his group. Like all American executives, their first instinct is to cut the budget. Except we really don't have any more discretionary spending so any further cuts means breaking the law by not complying with regulations. This frustrates him so he's been spending the better part of two months trying to come up with creative ways to interpret regulations in order to get out of doing something. We tell him why it can't be done, he pushes it further, Legal steps in and says "lol no" to his proposals and it dies. On a staff call today, he had a mini-meltdown about how he's been unable to cut costs. So one of his direct reports asked what the company's target goal was. He said that there wasn't a company target. Silence set in as we realized that he made us chase our tails for weeks in order to show off to the President.
I've only been in KKKapitalist Amerikkka for six years and I've seen three department turnovers and it's the same old shit: new leader steps in, says things are going to change, can't change it, and then he/she gets scuttled off after 2-3 years. I can see the cycle a mile away like a shitty Sonic title but I just hate that I have to spend an appreciable amount of time on something that won't amount to anything.
