Given that he owns Twitter, would this title imply that he works harder than his subordinates?

I misread this as "bosses spend more time on social media than on their subordinates". I was ready to send this to my boss as a hint but alas.

Often that's a good thing. A bored manager is very dangerous to productivity.

This made me chuckle, probably because there's some truth to it. I need my manager to prioritize tasks according to their business value and distribute them among the team. Then stay the hell out of our way.

I'm not totally surprised about this but did the article specify specific types of jobs/industries? If it's retail or something that's different from an engineering Org - manual jobs are different from "creative" work

That is excellent. It distracts them from interrupting the people who do the real work with pointless meetings and other bureaucratic nonsense. The fewer managers a company has, the more effective and productive it is in my experience (30+ years).

>Bosses Spend More Personal Time on Social Media Than Subordinates

If they didn't, the subordinates wouldn't get to be on Facebook very much at all.
