  What do middle managers do? Most companies I’ve worked in have as many “managers” as bottom level employees. It’s hilarious

    What do they do in person? Usually roughly the same as that just from home.

      They pretend there are problems that everyone else is too inept to solve.

    I’m a middle manager. I run reports to make sure my team is doing what they’re supposed to do and identify things they need to be coached on if they’re falling short. I also attend meetings with other teams to figure out solutions to things my team collaborates with them on.

    I’m the best case, mentoring.

    In the worst case, produce carbon dioxide, which the plants would need if they weren’t plastic and only in the central office thousands of miles away.

    Isn’t that because “manager” means you’re exempt from overtime?
