No matter what you do...people will still hate you coz you're their manager.

LOL...Yeah, I think this is true. As long as you assign work to people or people report to you, people will hate you for this or that. Just overheard a conversation of two of my direct reports. They had a complaint against me for a trivial thing. Well, I've learned this..let people have their share of fun bitching about their manager. Even we've done that when we were at their position and hell..we still do for our managers. It's a position of power and ridicule. Take it with a pinch of salt. Muhahaha..I'm sure most of us agree.
