How often do you actually talk to or see your direct supervisor?

I see my manager maybe once a month, sometimes longer. Speak on phone twice a month. Daily emails, but those are usually sent to a group.

Haven't seen my manager's manager in like 5 years. Idk if that's good or bad

Talk to him a couple times a week. See him maybe three times a year.

Daily, but our office only has 6 people in it so it's hard not talk to everybody on a daily basis

Ever single day when he's in the office. As little as possible when he's not.

I try for the 'deluge him with information until he doesn't want to get me on a roll about my projects' technique. Works pretty well.

Sitting next to him in a meeting right now.

Shooting the shite before the meeting. He’s strange.

One day a week he sits next to me. That's the only day I see him. I work at home three days a week and he works from home two days a week. Speak him almost daily and lots of e-mails back and forth.

I try not 2 talk to him. If he wasn't a Relative, he'd be working at McDonalds, sweeping floors. Worst part, is that he is about to get promoted to one of the highest 3 positions.

He sends daily team emails.
Has a team teleconference every two weeks.
I speak with him one on one about once a week.
I see him about once a month just to go to lunch. I'm his only rep located close to him.

He starts requesting ride alongs if your numbers dip. If that happens you are already in trouble and might as well find a new gig.

I work directly for my CO and XO and I work right next to both of their offices. I talk to them every day.

I'm in the C-Suite. I only answer to the CEO and our offices are right next to each other. As the CFO I am in meetings with him almost daily.
