Yes, OP, you may hit on a quick return, if you're lucky enough to connect with the right internal, but this looks like a hand you are going to build slowly. You may be surprised to learn who all your supervisor knows and their level of beholdenness to her, so don't go rushing in to gossip unfavorably about her with anyone. If and when you do pass a remark, make it sound like you are concerned purely for her sake whenever possible.

We often get exactly what we want, although, just as often it seems to come disguised? Do you want to get out of the company, or do you want to navigate around your boss? Feelings can he very deceiving. . . this is a dangerous situation you are in, having strong misgivings for the leadership of your boss. Your test here couldn't be any more clear: keep your mouth shut and your eyes and ears wide open.

Bosses with no discernible skill set other than sucking up to higher ups are all too common.

Seems like you need to start CCing everyone on your emails to prove you're working rather than focusing on results and assuming those in and of themselves will prove you've been working

Counterpoint: Seated at the golden heart of every corporation is an Optimal Capitalist, icily oriented toward maximizing all aspects of the value chain, defending the interests of the business qua business in its pursuit of economic excellence. He often takes the form of an ancient dwarf, elongated cat, or hairy imp. If OP moves through the chain long enough, deep enough, hard enough, regardless of the inefficient yes-men and rent seekers he encounters along the way, eventually he will in his quest find this fabled individual who will enact justice and terminate all who would imperil the optimization of the company.

They're like the remora that attach themselves to the great oceangoing sharks. Or the caked encrustations of feces that pile on, layer after layer, in a hot portapotty at a summer festival. It is right and just to slice through these inefficiencies to make the company a better place, including through accelerated retirement packages, adverse conduct determinations, soft push-outs, and, in times of true exigency, mass restructuring of internal corporate organization flowcharts.

My $.02: I don't know why you think you'd torpedo your career when you're doing something to advance the business and litigation interests of the organization. Reach out to him; make the move. She's an impediment to the growth and spread of the company, an offense to the collective, and a breeding ground for adverse business case studies. There's an old saying out of Wharton: the only thing necessary for non-optimized corporate value chains is that good men do nothing. You can't sit on your hands and simply wait for her to be fired. You need to strike at her.

This is really fucking weird, but I’m pretty sure we’re the same person. Like the descriptions/details and timeline are uncanny. Im working right now because my whole week was ruined by incompetent boss, who got a couple pop quizzes from an SVP in Finance and was a complete deer in the headlights, pulled me in to make a bunch of diving catches. Talking to boss’ boss in skip level 1:1 this week and have to decide how much of this I will reveal. Last skip level 1:1 boss’ boss basically told me he knows I’m running the team at this point and he and boss would be fucked if I left.
