It'd be very easy to turn the tables in front of a jury, especially a jury that isn't familiar with the story, and she could theoretically get way more than $500k for sexual assault, and the PD could possibly face investigations and other shit. There are probably a lot of text messages and other gross stuff that's never been seen before, so it makes sense to settle. In Pat's case, he is suing them for not making a special boy exception just for him.
Could Pat sue the FBI next? Don’t scoff. Nothing’s off the table. Nothing.

A woman at my work is complaining to the big boss that she's being bullied because her manager is asking her to do her job. She's 30. And of course upper management is entertaining her stupidity.
Sadly this is common in corporate America - you can get in trouble for telling people to do the job they were hired to do. I don’t think you’re even allowed to get mad at people who are supposed to work 8-5 but roll in every day around 8:15 / 8:20.

I can confirm this. I coasted through a bullshit PM job once and barely came in. I finally got fired when they laid off half the company.

To be fair, the company was shit and there was no way to effectively manage the 75 simultaneous projects they expected, so I just said "fuck it" and phoned it in for almost a year while barely doing any work.

This hits too close to home. The PM department at my company is just me and another guy managing an absurd amount of accounts. I have a Jew boss who expects premium level service for every customer and an old-school CEO who hires just enough college grads to do grunt work for the company to not go under, but no more. Whether or not I go the extra mile or slack off almost doesn’t matter because all it takes is for one 22-year old fuck up to not do his job for my whole day to be torpedoed and I’m pretty much helpless to stop it

The company I was with was in the red every quarter and decided that PMs should handle EVERYTHING in lieu of actually hiring staff (not that they could afford it). How it worked was that the faggot BD would forward me emails from potential clients and then it was my job to meet with them, determine the scope of the project, estimate it (including getting RFQs from subs etc), draft a contact and send it to the client, and then follow up with the client to ensure they signed. This was all before we even had the job awarded, all while jobs we actually got contracts on needed to be managed. I used to have to do code checks, deal with permitting offices, coordinate with PEs for required engineering drawings/stamps, perform status updates, and do all the other shit that PMs actually do. I told them over and over that the work load was past unrealistic and into laughable, but they didn't care. Somehow they were bleeding resources and decided the PM department was the one to suffer. Their answer was "that's how we do things. PMs handle presale AND actual project management... x75. Now get back to work."

Fuck em. It still annoys me that they thought it was an acceptable solution. Fuck!

It’s the same everywhere now, fewer and fewer people are expected to do more and more work, it’s just musical chairs to pin it all on a fall guy before it implodes, which it will.

I can luckily pin everything on the offshore team, it is legitimately their fault though.

Lol did they not have a sales or biz dev department? That’s ridiculous.

I feel like every company has that one department that absorbs 80% of the work and you drew the short straw.

The funny thing is that department doing all the work is also the one who gets slandered and blamed the most, too.

The departments doing nothing but causing problems, just coast on endlessly. They’re usually the dregs, the fat retards, women, blacks etc that staff them, so they get free reign. They also can’t recognise this and also beleive they are the 80% department we’re talking about.

We had BDs but they didn't do anything. Clients would email my BD asking for a quote, and he would literally just forward the email to me and make commission off of it without doing anything. That's how management structured our process map. Sometimes I'd call the BD at like 10a if I had a question for him and I could tell I just woke him up. That's frustrating enough, but when you tell middle management about this and they look at you like "yeah, and? What's the problem?"

They had a massive turn over right before I started where the entire PM department quit all together. Like 6 people decided to all quit together at once and management didn't see that as a red flag. Like I said, I basically stopped doing any work and it took 6 months to get fired, and it was though sweeping layoffs, not job performance. Fuck em.

I still don’t know what “consultants” do other than being part of a ritual to have mass lay offs and take some of the heat off management. That’s literally their entire function right?

I’ve asked many what specifically they do and still don’t know.

I worked as a consultant for my trade and it's pretty close. Management would be in over their head - usually a guy who worked in a very niche department and thought he could start his own business without having a clue about how the industry is structured as a whole - and contract me to do a full process mapping, equipment assessment, key role strategies, etc. Usually the employees that I'd advise cutting loose had become lazy from little oversight and there was just no walking them back from that edge - they'd already lost respect for the organization. Those guys have got to go - there's nothing else you can do for them. They'll bitch about refining the process, saying that's not how the company does things while, in the same breath, saying the company sucks. Sorry, but you gotta go then. Sometimes you can do that in stages starting with the loudest, most egregious faggots in the hopes that it'll be a come-to-Jesus moment for the rest, but sometimes you really need to clean house and start fresh.
