Flunktional Management Arrogance

So one thing that I have noticed at the Shitshow is the complete arrogance and downright delusional nature of the Flunktional management. One of the things that amazes me is that some good employee who has been at the Shitshow for 5, 10, 15 and maybe even 20 years or longer may seem to not be happy with how he/she is being treated and flunktional management could seem to care less. One who think they would want to sit down with an employee and talk to them "man to man" and try to understand why the employee is unhappy or what it is that they could do to help the situation, but thats not how it works. When an employee becomes unhappy, flunktional management just shuns them and takes the approach that "well, we could never do anything wrong, its something wrong with THEM." and they just completely ignore the problem. They all like to make up phrases like "well he/she just couldnt handle the pressure" or maybe something like "well they werent a good fit for the role" The next thing that happens is that the employee becomes so fed up that they eventually leave the company and when this happens the flunktional management's true arrogance shows. Let me give an example:

One employee I know who worked there for 15 years decided to leave because she was being treated like crap went to her flunktional manager to give two weeks notice and his response was "Great! Whens your last day?". One would think that the flunktional manager would at least want to know why the person was leaving or show some remorse that a valued employee who had been at the company 15 years decided to pack up and leave or maybe even try to talk to person into stating. After all the Shitshow has a lot of time and knowledge invested in this employee. Oh no, Flunktional management arrogance will have nothing to do with that. Good riddance!

Because flunktional management thinks they can do no wrong and they think that the reason people leave has nothing to do with their flunky style of management, I throw rocks.
