if you know me, i don’t get mad. but i did get mad once. i slammed the door on someone at work. i was cto, the eng team reported to me and we hired a professional manager to help out (wasn’t my idea). he said he needed the devs to report to him. i asked why. 1/3

Sounds like the team was also lucky to have you at the helm. IME most managers are meh, a few are great, and the rest are that guy.

hah i was not fishing for compliments but thank you. rather there are so many people like that, some smart enough to hide it better - and it pisses me off. remember if you love your company, but don’t like this one guy , well , guess who hired him.

Well and that's just the thing. When _that_ guy starts being a jackass, everybody in the trenches basically has to just tolerate it unless someone with rank does something about it. More often than not, they don't; they make excuses for it, say their hands are tied, etc. So good on you.
