Not a day goes by that someone different doesn’t come to me to talk about how crappy the overall situation is in our department. Everyone is very diplomatic about it at first, but eventually it ends up at the same place – three people are making this a shitty place to work – and they’re at the top of the food chain.

At least one person has gone higher up the rung to the company head to complain. Two more are set to shortly. Several are actively looking for jobs, and nearly everyone is passively waiting for the job market to improve.

It’s getting interesting.
