Fun things about being a manager:

  • Your department has a cost center that went up 61% over last year, with no increase in budget funding.
  • You have a list of incomplete audit items from 2004 that you will audited on in 2 months.  None of them have been completed.
  • You start getting letters from HR to "Counsel your employee John Q. Moron about (a) Attendance (b) Attitude (c) Discipline Involoving ___________  (d) All of the above."
  • If you thought your "Pay by the hour" sucked as a white collar/professional, try management, it's a whole 'nother level.

All in all, I love the new job, but managing people and budgets is a new and unfriendly beast.

Actually it would have been better to omit both the " ' " and the "n", I don't think I've ever heard anyone say 'a whole another level'
