Has the manager you work with done your job? Has their boss? Or their bosses boss? Welcome to the new capitalist structure. Capitalists are breeding at an unsustainable rate. In order to feel like they contribute to an organization they will generate countless fruitless complications, bureaucracy is their comfortable shield.
The question to always ask is "have you done this job".
Most managers lack the skills to actually complete the tasks required of any skilled position. This is not the norm, in-fact this is far from normal in traditional work environments. Sure they might "add value" through efficiency, but if they don't really understand the work process, more than half the time they are just creating more work for those they don't value (the people who actually do the work).
Further more if you are told they are "engineering out the risk" that means someone once got hurt furthering their cause, and they don't really care about the specifics of that situation, they just want to "toddler proof" your work environment.
Fact is for most corporate vocations, they want you to do dangerous jobs, but by putting a thin veneer of "controls" for safety they want to bring in less skilled labor. And if anyone has an experience where manager who has never done your job, pulled you aside and corrected your behavior in a way that saved your life, please tell me. Because it will be a first for me.
