I like my manager. If he's not around who is going to remind me about sample inventories, LMS training classes I'm late on, car milage I've forgotten to enter, code of conduct classes I can't find, how to operate my OKTA, how to do my expense report, remind me I need receipts, remind me what range of personal miles I need to stay out of trouble, where to find TED Talks, how to get display requests funded, how to even begin to do my yearly goals in WorkDay, how to get Vendor Credentialing requested, how to do Veeva Engage, etc.
I am a lazy sack of excrement.
Come to think of it, they don't need me or him.
