Had an employer that wanted us to open our minds to the future. When he says this, he doesn’t mean “our” future, but rather “his“ future and if anything, we’ll shape “his” future in a way that will not make him happy. Especially when he’s so busy putting us down. He’ll also never understand why we didn’t participate in “his” meetings. He says we can ask questions, but when we did, he doesn’t answer them, so what’s the point? He just doesn’t understand that we didn’t care.
