    My manager is constantly trying to micromanage small tasks while also being virtually silent about huge projects that would take weeks to do.

    "I should be able to get this done in fifteen minutes."

    "We need to create a JIRA story for this task and prioritize it. We need to determine the impact it will have and..."
