Do they actually trust their coworkers to run the company without tanking it almost immediatly? Most of my coworkers can barely make it through their own tasks without fucking something up, let alone actually having input on how the business is run.

Some of the workers may be managerial. But the managerial workers don't own a disproportionate amount of the company, and they're not considered the "superior" of any other workers.

@lightnsfw @dingus
You really think the people currently running your company are any different from those other coworkers?

I think they have education related to the running of a large company whereas most of my coworkers barely made it through their IT certs and have some of the stupidest takes regarding how things should be done I've ever heard in my life.

This is a problem with the company you work for, not your coworkers. I'm sure if they were paid more, were given more agency, and received better training, they'd be better elployees

No, they're just idiots. Myself and others have had the same training and responsibilities and do fine. It's not that difficult of a job.

I guess you haven't met many CEOs, then.

[–] Arbiter@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I trust my average coworker much more than the average CEO.

Highly depends on your coworkers. My current coworkers? Yeah they're great, we have two electrical engineers on my team, buncha geniuses.

My last job? Oh man I wouldn't trust those guys as far as I could throw em.
