Friend became my boss recently. Friend also became a jerk simultaneously.
The fact that they're in charge and I need the cash went straight to their head.
Sucks man.
Happens every time. I've seen this same thing happen three times in my life. Something about the title just immediately goes to the head.
In one job there were three of us who were a tight-knit bunch. One of the things we loved to do was pick apart the project Gannt chart as obvious fiction that could never be met.
One of the three of us was elevated to middle management.
Within a week he was treating the Gannt chart we'd mocked for eight months together as a schedule with no wiggle room.
Management turns people into assholes.
Management turns people into assholes.
Unjustified hierarchies turn ppl into a holes
Just tell them how they changed.
and get fired for sure
