I was once in a meeting where the supervisor once said, "Be thankful that you have a job." This was after hearing what we think about the current state of uncertainty gripping the whole organization in terms of budget cuts, staff lay-offs, and internal conflicts.

​It's like the blind leading the blind. You can't get any assurance or clarity from someone who doesn't and couldn't lead.
