So my workplace is experiencing a higher that usuall turn over of managers. The office I work in basically consisted of me and a co-worker. We had a manager that left 6 months ago and they are just now replacing him.
The thing is that we don't need a manager as we are capable of handling the minimal administrative tasks that we share just fine. The only reason they are bringing one on is that the office policy calls for it.
Now the new manager comes to us to ask us what his responsibilities are?! It turns out that the previous manager left no turn over info AND his supervisor (who knew what responsibilities our manager had) also left (retired) several months ago! So no one knows why we have to have a manager, just that we have to have one...
...and of course he will get paid more.
cliffs:
- our manager leaves job with no turnover.
- no one has requirement or tasks of the position.
- new manager arrives takes up space and gets more money.
