They're all going to hate you regardless of what approach you take.Just been told I'm the new team manager as of Monday until whenever. I've been a manager once after leaving the RAF and all the team members just cried a lot and complained that I was horrible.
Going to have a think over the weekend and try and be a nice manager.
Any tips?

You're ****ed
Yeah I get that, they are not too fond of me already as I'm quite blunt and tend to speak my mind. I don't really care but feel that I need to be a bit nicer now that I'm officially in charge.
You may as well be an utter **** to them. If you're nice to them they'll still hate you but they'll think you're a soft touch. Give them hell. Start off by randomly firing the one you dislike the most. Do it in front of everyone and look like you're really enjoying it. If possible throw him or her out of a window.
If you do that then they'll just walk all over you. If they already think you're a bit of a **** then just play the ****.

You don’t go to work to make friends mate. Bring tha muthafuckin ruckus.
I was going to be myself but the boss sort of hinted that he doesn't want people running to him every 5 mins because of me so I have to box clever a bit.
This might be a laugh. The people I'll be managing are a right bunch as well, moaning ****ers I already tell them to wind it in when we have meetings.

This isn't going to go well.
Funny thing is I told a girl who was moaning last week that she's "****ing lucky I'm not your boss" now I am.
Do a thread on Thursday when your boss 'changes his mind'
