Micromanaging puts employees in absurd situations. A boss who is overly concerned about the behavior of those who work for them often ends up producing results that are more ridiculous than they are a show of productivity. Some are neurotic, and others just enjoy the power trip, but either way, they generally get to a …

I am very suspicious of the new anti-tipping culture that has arisen over the past couple of years.
