    I thought those are the prerequisites to be a manager

    Not generally, but some people enjoy it. It is a game.

    Look on the bright side. Your role in the game is to feck them up. Which is fun! There's nothing like a well-planned manouvre bringing someone like this crashing down, however temporarily!

    Unfortunately not . . . well not that I know of. Maybe if the guilty party is present they will speak up and explain themselves.

    Think of this as being the equivalent of contractor CV's for jobserve vacancies

    Peow! Peow!

    Oh well, sure there are exceptions (I am sure also that there might be some decent managers too - not that I have ever seen any though).

    Long were the days were you could simply be good at what you are doing and you were happy and well considered.

    Permie life sucks - I finally and completely agree. Especially at a high level. And it's not about money. It ain't worth all the gold in the world. Self-respect is more important.

    If you think you reached your position because of your skills, you not only have fuked your soul but also your brain. Good luck to you, you need it.

    ps if you care to give a definition of "hard man" I might try to answer that.
