Imagine this scenario.

You're the manager of a middle level manager in a corporation.

He has some power to initiate and run his own projects without approval.

So imagine he started his own project and it was going the way that the war against Iran is going.

Would you FIRE him or not?

Please be honest and consider the scenario without thinking about Trump.

That is probably hard to do for those in the maga cult.

But please try.

Too many managers IMHO.

And I think you mean WOULD you fire him as in the headline, not WHY. (Why you FIRE him or not?)

Get your English correct before posting please.

I'm going to go there.

I consider anyone that votes NO on this poll to be LYING and unable to separate this topic from loyalty to Trump.

A manager who didn't fire the middle manager in a scenario like this would be fired himself!

Would evalute the direction of the project before deciding to stick a fork in it or not.

I would probably take him (definitely wouldn't be a 'her' as not up to the job) out for a beer lunch. That would morph into a mid afternoon bottle of wine with a few additional evening bevies. I would point out the error of his ways and give him a few steers on where he is going wrong. I would get him (definitely not 'her') to pick up the bill(s) as we went along as I would be signing off his (definitely not 'her' - not up to the job) expenses.

Next day I would deny any knowledge of such a 'meeting' and fully pass the blame if anything has gone further 'tits up'. I would also call in sick that day as would be 'hanging'. Probably a bacon sandwich, 2+ 'hand shandies' and a spot of daytime TV.

Next day would reappear as if nothing had happened and recommend that said 'he' (not 'she' - not up to the job) be fired.

Sorted.

The manager thought it would be over in a few days and not spread globally, The manager had no plan to define project success. The manager was totally unprepared for scenarios where it didn't work as expected. The manager failed to get buy in from colleagues before acting, The manager was pressured to act by fellow a mid manager from Tel Aviv, The result of his actions resulted in deaths of employees and a massive increase deficit spending by the company. In desperation the manager changed policies to greatly financially benefit competing ("enemy") corporations.

Come on now! BE HONEST.

(Read the OP before voting)

Where is the OP which explains what project the manager started, in what kind of company, and what the exact consequences were?

The project and its expected scope needs to be defined.

Why the poll if you can't accept the results. Please be honest, but you're lying if you disagree with me.

The answer would all depend how one thinks the war is going, good or bad. Since it's not over, pretty hard to say.

What if it ended tomorrow, the present regime threw in the towel, placed an interim govt in, and scheduled new election, for May 1st, along with opening the straits and ceased all hostilities.

You're asking folks to judge a plan, before the results are in. Can't judge a marketing plan, until the final sales / profit numbers are in.
