I just want to do my work without someone constantly overseeing every little thing. Even managers who start out reasonable seem to end up worrying more about control than letting people get on with the job.

@az welcome to capitalism baby! Do the least amount of work for the most amount of profit. They’ll be CEO before any of us.
Hello @b6 - this is @az. That was an interesting response. As a now retired, ex-manager of people over the past 30 years, I think I understand why your manager (the person above you in the hierarchy you belong to) is showing no interest in you. In another life, I would have liked to have worked with you.
@az hi AP here.. maybe im just good at my job which is why i dont need a manager on my butt like you do..
learn how how do your job and maybe you wouldn't have to get micromanaged l0ser
get good or get out
@OP - question who is watching over your shoulder. The "why" they are doing that is normally associated with their elevated position and lack of understanding of your job and tends to indicate what is happening above you. Don't mess around in those situations. If you are doing your job, ask them why you are being monitored.
@ap - you obviously work from home and have no work ethic. You should be ashamed.
@af i am in the same position. I haven’t had a manager for 6 months since my previous manager was laid off.. I log in whenever I want, I leave whenever I want, I take 2-3 hour long breaks everyday.
Complete opposite here....no one seems to care while I continue to float and get paid since they are in such disarray and delusion and cant figure out what they are doing. Waiting until they pull heads from rear, or layoff, don't care either way, I get paid.
