I've seen three seperate instances on LinkedIn this week of high position managers in my industry completely crapping on the front line employees, calling them lazy, insulting their work ethics, insulting thier customer service, or blaming front line employees for whatever reasons their business has been having issues lately. To top it off, whenever I ask about their opinions, and what reasons they have to believe in such things, I only ever get “just look around” as an answer.
22 years doing this, and while my bosses are cool with me, I just have this feeling they talk down when I'm not around, and I'm not sure I'm cool with doing that for another 25 years.
