I would like to decrease the amount of micro-management in this company by 185%

I would like to play golf on Fridays with suppliers at least 3X per month. You know, to help business.

There are no hard metrics. There really can't be, I don't give a shit what people say. There is only about 10 growers we could contract with, of that only 5 want to contact with us, of that only 3 get to the right price. Those three have to work, there are no other options.

What about learn XX software? Get certified in XX software?

Also I think you should look for a new job.

Not sure, there is a physical when I get there, which I would imagine consists of a drug test. Not going to fucking email and ask if they do it after I'm hyptothetically employed..might give it away

One of the largest multinational companies in our field. After they laid off about 3k people last year, I know there's a brand new Maserati parked in the presidents parking, right next to the CEO'S rolls.

I might have seen your CEO a couple of weeks ago, as I was behind a Rolls right near your building. For all the Lambos and Ferraris that I see, I don't see many Rollses.

I always hated those B.S. evaluations in the corporate world. It's like an interview, when you're asked "what are your biggest weaknesses", and you have to come up with some bullshit that makes a weakness sound like a positive, such as "I work too hard and am too much of a perfectionist".

Objectives: Contract management – Identify suppliers with the correct documentation and ability to provide product to reduce risk.
Supplier management – Work with outside vendors and develop them to provide the goods and services necessary to succeed.
Customer Service -
Value Management – Find the best overall product, based on quality, availability and service.

I need one more objective.

I don't have shit for the accomplishments. What I do, I find hard to quantify if I am saving the company money or not.
