Sandy: I was listed formally as a “supervisor” in my organization, however my job had changed and I no longer supervised anyone. Last year my organization ordered that all supervisors take a one week (yes 5 full days) course dealing with OSHA safety issues. I deal with computers not chemicals, so the training would have been a waste of my time. So I had myself “demoted” so I was no longer a “supervisor,” resulting in no reduction of pay or any other type of downside. I avoided the useless training! My ego is quite happy not being called a supervisor and I got a week of my life back.
