What makes VPs so sensitive and special?

by wordworker . Updated 22 years, 3 months ago

You know what makes me sick? People who get to director and Vice President level positions in a company and then suddenly no one can talk to them. Oh we have to coddle the poor babies because they’re SOOO much smarter and busier than the rest of us… We can’t just give them an honest, detailed report when a project goes south or a person or a group doesn’t fulfill its obligations. No, someone in middle management has to “have a conversation” with the VP. Translation: Nobody wants to give a VP bad news or disagree with a VP’s decision for fear that the big bad VP will be unhappy. And heaven forbid someone making 50 times the annual salary of the people who report to him or her should be unhappy about anything…… When will the madness end?
