Management jobs should come with warning labels

Suggestion for the most prominent label:

Sucker! This job is paid by salary, not hourly. Pay rate is not based on 40 hours, not even 45 hours per week. Dream on. Plan on 55-60 minimum. Yes, some management jobs are protected by a law that states in some fashion that you must be allowed to go to the doctor (and so on) and not be docked for hours missed: but try to find the time to go, after all, you don’t work 55-60 hours because the job can be done in 40, now do you!

Now to be fair, they could add this label as well, in extremely small print:

Although the percentages are against it, the possibility exists your boss may have learned “The Golden Rule” and absorbed the benefits of the lesson it holds. If that is true, you may have stumbled into the right job.

    I don’t think you could pay me enough to do a management job ever again. Been there done that and hated it. As far as the driving thing goes. I know I am guilty of the lead foot, but I always stay two car lengths behind, I am not a crazy lane changer, but really when the speed limit is 110km and you are doing only 70km there is something wrong? I say don’t drive on the highway if it scares you!

    Now your photos are awesome! Love the Past present and future photo!

    Happy weekend

    Cheers
