[QUOTE="LongTimeComing, post: 1081355, member: 45493"] I didn't really intend for the 'lack of balls' to be the primary selling point on PT sups lack of action. The way I wrote it basically made it that way....I see that now. Trust me, I'm with you here. There are vastly too many people who are not qualified to be in charge of anyone and represent the company. Unfortunately for PT sups, the standard for the position is generally fairly low, and the basis of need can, at times, supersede qualification for the position. Herein lies the problem with PT sups not being allowed to really exercise any sort of authority....or even be viewed as someone who can. Soo many aren't trusted by their bosses and aren't allowed the freedom to make those decisions. Others think themselves too highly and end up making jackass calls. I get where the general public image of a PT sup is coming from....And ultimately I was just trying to demonstrate some reasons as to why their actual authoritative capacity would be questioned....while making it clear that they do have it.
