[QUOTE="browner89, post: 1473984, member: 56104"] Some, most, Sups are people that either can't or never have done the job. I was offered a supervisor position, and turned it down, thankfully, within 2 weeks of beginning to work at UPS. What the hell did I know then? Absolutely nothing. Other sups I've seen were too slow, inefficient, or just plain awful at doing anything right when they accepted the supervisor position. I still get asked to be a sup on a ~monthly basis but its basically because I run the section I work at right now. My Sup is usually MIA and everyone with any question comes to me anyways (one reason why I love this place, you can learn a lot reading the right areas to help yourself and those you actually like). Not a job I'd want but at least I've been around long enough to properly train new hires in my area and try to steer them away from the BS, something my sup can't do. On top of not really knowing the area they supervise, they are constantly harassed by those above them to get everything done better and faster. Better and faster don't always mesh, it's generally one or the other until you become very good at what you do. So any means necessary to get their owner management off of their back, even if it means screwing those who report to them. [/QUOTE]
