I'll give an example. On of my current job's responsibilities is dishwashing. I wash dishes the same as I wash them at home. First I rinse all of the sauce and food bits off, then I use a sponge. Then I sanitize (dont do that at home but it's standard for restaurants)
Anyway, this makes my manager really mad for some reason. She's aggressive and overly confrontational about it. She wants me to use a sponge first, then rinse than sanitize. Doesn't make any sense to me because it causes a huge mess and makes the sink water disgusting. And why does it matter? If the dishes are clean and sanitized who cares?
Every manager I've ever had is like this. They can't trust even theirost loyal and experienced employees to do their jobs. They have to watch over our shoulders and control everything we do
Now yeah, I get some things are company policy and health code policy. But I'm tlaking about small things that really don't matter one way or another. I've even had managers run over to me in a huff prepared to lecture me only to figure out there's nothing for them to criticize, grumble to themselves and storm off. It's like they want their employees to fail and will pick apart anything we do just for the sake of doing it. I don't get it
