I am in management, and hate it too. Unrealistic goals, people who don't care doing jobs that will never be good enough. I have been doing it for 30 years, and it doesn't get better. It's a living. Last October I was hospitalized for MDD and I have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder along with BPD. My anxiety at never performing up to what my company demands is sometimes unbearable. Fortunately, I only have a few years until I can retire. I guess it has been worth it, but there are many days i would love to just walk out. People aren't machines.

I sometimes wish I could clone myself so I could just once get accolades. I get some credit on a personal level, with immediate bosses and some of the people who work for me. I know I am doing a good job, but I SOOOOO know what you are saying. We have those stupid calls too. Hate, hate, hate them! Hang in there. Hope you get out of that company soon!
