we all just love our boss, lobbied for over a year and insinuated to upper management there could be problems if she wasn't promoted.
Our former supervisor was allowed to leave after racial and sexual harassment charges were brought against him, and for a year, we had no supervisor.
When the position openned up, we talked the senior person in the shop into taking the position (this is a paint shop at a govt facility) and she finally agreed.
She is like a Mom to the 5 of us guys in the shop, brings us donuts once a week, asks our input on jobs coming in, we have gotten more favorable feedback from our clients as to productivity, we have overhauled our shop, streamlined our operations, and it for me, positively a pleasure to make the 80 mile drive in to work each day because I know I can get my job done with minimal BS.
we get more work done with less stress, our biggest problem is waiting on the other trades so we can complete our projects.
Problem is, our boss plans to retire in about 2 years, then we will have to provide our own donuts.
