My boss accuses me of being negative when I question processes and various requests. I think I'm just doing my job when I point out some of the more obvious flaws that are not recognized. Minor things, I suppose, like getting ahead of ourselves before the company is really ready to take on additional loads.
Sure, I'm all about growth, expansion, and moving forward. However, when the task falls to me to clean up messes made because we weren't ready, I think I have a right to question the "ready, fire, aim" mentality.
Perhaps it's not healthy, but I've nearly given up trying to figure out what this guy wants.
If I zig, he zags.
He gives me one set of instructions, and then issues the same task, sometimes with altered directions, to several others. The result is a chunky soup with too many cooks working on the broth, which no one can swallow.
I am not being negative.
But I am no yes-man, either.
