No shade to any comrades here in that role. I'm just venting because 1) I hate my job and am officially "quiet quitting," and 2) I've sent out over 120 job applications today and I'm fuckign tired.

MODERATORS
Lies, damned lies, and statistics
One thing I will give my boss is that when we had a new guy with noticably bad metrics (like one billable item in 3 months) he listened to me when I said it was our fault.
Kept the guy on under my wing and showed that he just hadn't been trained properly. Let him know the next day that he had a month of my keeping him on even if he just called out every day to find a new job, now he's like a huge part of the company.
That experience alone was enough to make it so the only way to get fired here is to literally bring a gun to work or be such a chauvinist that you get the can.
