Perhaps the feeling of being a mere cog is new and demoralizing to management-level workers, but for those of us on the production side of things, we've known all along that we're just meat machines making a profit for the owners. We may chafe at over-controlling management, but really, it's nothing new and it won't change the fact that we have to put food on the table and diapers on the babies. We'll suck it up. The poor always have. If nothing else, perhaps being subjected to command and control leadership will teach managers how the great unwashed feel. In a perfect world, change for the better would trickle down. In reality, not a chance.
