Thank you, @seesaw. I need to hear this right now. My anxiety is through the roof, and I already have anxiety issues.

I didn't share how arrogant I may have sounded to my colleagues. That's why I fear I've alienated them. What a total jerk I am. My gripes and arrogance got the best of me. But I am so sick and tired of hearing my boss and our manager say things that are just flat out wrong, and of our team being poorly led by leaders who really don't know all of what they're doing. And my team members are so grossly unaware of how poorly led they are. They don't even realize it.

I should just kiss goodbye any thoughts of a promotion. Sometimes I really hate myself.

I greatly appreciate your supportive reply.
