Management exists to perpetuate the business of management.

The executive mantra is threefold: We exist for our customers, our shareholders and our employees.

False: Management exists to keep management (managers), employed and insulated from customers, shareholders and employees. I.e., management is a myth.

If the coming housing crash triggers a economic downturn we shall see management circle the wagons to protect themselves first. They will cut full-time hours (already happening where I work), cut back on services, and reduce operating costs and hours of operation. COVID has provided a lot of the cover needed in this regard.

What business should do is cut 50% of management today and never look back. Over 50% of worthless. Send half home with pay for 90 days and see if the company collapses during their absence. It won't. The employees will probably produce more. Then after 90 days, send those managers a letter saying "fuck off", we don't need you anymore.

They should but they won't. It's called "sword and shield". Layers of lower management exist to protect upper management from being hurt from outside the click. Lower level managers are the sword and shield for the next higher level. And up and up to the owner. They are useful insulating idiots.

If you're a business owner reading this, fire your managers first if you dare. They are killing your business. Most are retarded. I know, I was one of the tards for 20 years. I was paid a fortune for basically nothing that I couldn't have done as a hourly supervisor.

I've read this too.

The W.E. Deming model of total quality management was invented after WWII. Toyota embraced it and streamlined everything. I lived in Japan for 5 years. Toyota and a few others are the exception. Most aren't.

The Japanese had a term for old managers they kept around during their "lifelong" corporate employment phase. The old managers were called "Mado Gomi" (Window Garbage).

They would take elderly managers and give them a desk by the window and create worthless projects. Much like the modern Human Resource manager. Window trash.
