This comment may have been the tipping point into seriously considering quitting. Deep down I already felt it coming on but seeing it laid out like this hit home. The person currently in that leadership position fits every one of these bullet points and somehow remains in that position.

All their direct reports just seem to accept this lot in life, everyone else does their best to avoid drawing their ire. I imagine that maybe something will happen and they will get the picture and actually grow as a leader. It's growing old though and I miss being on a team wherein this wasn't the day to day morale.

Maybe they'll read this. Maybe it's you. Please take this seriously. You could do better.
