"To not care about impressing senior leadership."

0

My manager is obsessed with "impressing" his manager and the SVP. He acts like I should share this burning desire to please the higher-ups, even though this job has zero real-world impact and it was made very clear to me from day 0 that the room for promotion is very limited.

I'm sorry I don’t care about the SVP’s opinions. I don't care about the skip manager’s "vision." Every time my manager tries to use their names to motivate me, I feel like I’m going to spontaneously combust. How do these
