Like a few others, I am in management. Field level supervisor. I know enough about my enviroment that I can manage effectively. Unfortunately, my enviroment requires I shield my employees from all the crap falling from higher levels and I insulate my handlers from all the crap boiling up from the ranks. This goes on 24/7/52.

Well said.
Also, only getting 5 Saturdays off this year. The CEO is very old and doesn't have anywhere/anything else to do (rann off all his friends and family decades ago) and if anyone is here, I have to be here. The 5 I had off were while he was in the hospital after one of his 8 accidents this year. All but 1 totaled a new car. UUUUGH!
I love my job, I'm glad to have one, it's the non-job-related crap that gets to me.
