Back-stabbing constant, too much focus on LGBT safety (we are professionals, your personal sexual preference has no place being discussed at work) with "safe zones" marked by green triangle with pink circle stickers... Diversity is a wonderful thing, now let's get over making such a big deal of it and do our job.
Locked in Supervisor position with no advancement for multiple years, all while being a highly rated, dependable and competent Supervisor. trained "new" Supervisors that were given higher salary and better title, all while I was given a low performance rating (and new hires you are training are rated at the top tier of the same scale I was rated against)... In 6 years, went through three Area Heads, (this in itself kept most in our department from getting promoted), while competing and stable positioned Area Head lead departments within our same building had promoted most of their staff over the same period. Third Area Head was my undoing... He hired replacement supervisors on all shifts that we (supervisors that were stuck in this department during a job freeze over three years) spent time training, while being told by one of them (a bratty silver spoon kid fresh out of college with an attitude) that the new Area Heads' goal is to have only one supervisor per shift (In a department that filled over a billion dollars of marketable product per year)... My comment with this severe overworked and understaffed ethic was that I just hope I am not the "lucky one" left. Saw many good Supervisors quit or were let go after being overworked to the point of making a crucial mistake... In which as a Supervisor, there is no mercy from above. On the contrary, if you are a union employee, there is a culture of forgiveness, even after multiple gross acts of negligence.
