For me the best moments at work have been when the direct manager was sick or on a very long holiday. We're adults, why would I need someone to tell me 'I agree with you', 'go ahead, I trust you'. Maybe if you don't know what you're doing, or you can't manage the stakeholders, but otherwise, the manager just gets in the way, unless they know how to make themselves invisible, or they have the connections and will to propel your career forwards I've had plenty of managers in 20+ years

Expecting everybody else to be like you is the issue.

This isn't about you. It is about working with others that are not exactly like you.

> Maybe if you don't know what you're doing . . .

Making up insulting reasons doesn't help either.
