Not all managers are a PITA, I've worked for some who were a pleasure to work with. But some of them really look like the pointy-haired boss of Dilbert.

I have a real problem with the lack of respect, I can't work at places like that. I don't know if it's just me, but I found that it's getting harder to find a good job were you will get respect these days :(

Anyway, bonne chance!

P.S.: I would buy you a beer because I feel that you need one right now, but you're a little far from me ;)

>Thanks for your comments. It does help to hear what others think about managers. I am a manager/developer with no people under me, but I get no respect. I sound like some actor on TV probably, like Rodney Dangerfield.
