I have a very well paying job given the circumstances of the economy. I've been tasked with leading one team, and than they threw me into another team. At the end of the day, i dont seem to really do much ... my job consists of taking the blame for things going wrong and baby sitting hopefully inept combination of retards and interns to do the most basic of tasks. I do some time tracking, do some people talking, bla bla bla, and im pretty much done at round 2. Sometimes they rope me in late in the afternoon for some random crap that the intern or indian broke. Highlight of my day. They even admitted they have no work to do but still want to hire more people. I don't question, let the company do it.

And in a weird twist, the more i talk to other upper management, the more it seems they don't want to get rid of me. Im sure they are full of crap in that department but still, I've never trusted upper management to keep their word on anything. But for now, the job is pretty nice. Every time I don't do something, it just gets punted off to someone else. But the visibility is on me, and not the guy doing the actual work. I can see the dysfunction from afar, but at this point, i keep my head down, and just carry on.

Deep down, when the US economy falls into the shitter and money dries up, my job will be gone. Most likely, like everyone else, I'll be just another number in a sea of applicants. But that will be for another day.
