Yesterday my colleagues and I were discussing about that Head of Department (HOD) in our company. HOD is like the government. He acts like he is advocating democracy, but in fact he is an autocrat. On the surface, he acts like he wants to hear what you have to say and welcome you to rebut his ideas then say things like "I'll let you make the decision".

Seriously? My eyes are rolling half-way-round-the-world!

HOD is the type of person who already knows what he wants yet likes to waste people's time by asking for feedback and opinions. What is the point of asking feedback and not taking it in at all? It is okay to be superficial, let's be honest, we all were superficial at some point in the work environment. But people like HOD wants to make your opinion his decision - that is his ultimate goal. This fake democracy is making me sick.
