- They will happily lie to promote themselves
- They are good at getting others to take the blame

a long time ago we had a few decent managers who knew the game and had respect from there staff but now.
managers today are nodding dogs or yes men.
there told to make cuts but always need there mates behind them.
hid when theres problems.
cringe and get nervous near meetings with staff.make sure everyone signs to say they suffered the meeting.
never have answers at meetings.
walk about with bits of paper telling staff you failed on this item or a customer complaint.
like being on the phone ( looks like there doing something).
weight thereselves everyday to see how much more they can eat.
no not a sign of a psychopath just a very lonely person with no life.
as for moya whens her visa run-out.
99% of the managers I have met at Rm are full of wind and p1ss,happy to have that hold over you at work but react very differently if you bump into them on a night out,empty vessels always sound the loudest.
The Dunning-Kruger effect describes a cognitive bias in which people perform poorly on a task, but lack the meta-cognitive capacity to properly evaluate their performance. As a result, such people remain unaware of their incompetence and accordingly fail to take any self-improvement measures that might rid them of their incompetence.

Yeah, but we have a three-month caretaker who is apparently looking to take it on a permanent basis, and that BBC article was quite possibly written with him in mind. I'll take that swap any day

Hey, maybe I suffer from that. My work rate was perfectly satisfactory for a good few years, but now I can't recognise that I'm too slow indoors. I'm sure if they test me a few more times it'll make me speed up.

What a great observation,i had never heard of Dunning-Kruger so i looked it up on wikipedia, pretty much describes 90% of managers/wannabee managers i have seen in 20+ years with RM.
Superb.....
