That’s scary. The only real tyrants I had to deal with were the female Russian investment bankers. They could get nasty.
I was once a supervisor of over 50 people through a 12 hour shift. The power felt great lol and I used to give the worst jobs to the liberals :) but I got burned out after a few years. Went back to being the grunt.
What did you do in media? It sounds really interesting.
Senior Ed for Off-Road.com back in it’s heyday. Actual 7 figure monthly readership. I then ended up at a regional paper publishing group. Covered AZ, NV and SoCal. Local/regional reporting/editing and page layout at different times. I moved away from the editorial side and into production as I just could not deal with it anymore. Too much PC BS.
