My rant for the day (the whole effin' month, actually): Spineless bastards. AKA Managers.

I was informed last night that my company had a "bad" year last year. Turnover was down for more than half of the year, and we DID'T MEET THE ANALYST'S EXPECTATIONS. As a result, we're only getting a 30% bonus, instead of the 'normal' 100%.

In other words, some asshat in a suit, who has NOTHING to do with our business, feels that we didn't meet his expectations, and as a result, gave the company a bad rating. So our stock price dropped. Thanks a bunch, asshat.

Now, the stocks I bought in January aren't worth anything, and on top of that, I'm only getting about $2500 bonus, instead of the $7500 I was expecting.

And because of our terrible numbers last year, they are now reorganizing the whole effing division, wasting even more time giving the "good ol boys" new titles instead of just going out and getting us more customer projects to work on (and increasing our real turnover and profits).

Idiots.
