Eljefino is spot on the money! Use the next 6-8 weeks to really get under this wanker's skin!
Looks like I'm changing jobs

As far as waiting him out, as I said, he has sunk his hooks in. He can read a room, and agree with the right people. He quickly learned to talk the talk to reflect the management attitudes. He has very few original ideas, and most of them are, uh, stupid. We have all taken some management training, and he has learned the key words and can inject them into sentences. Apart from learning new words, nothing has changed. The management stuff is fine, but it has to actually be applied to work. The company didn't make money last year, and upper management is angry. This guy does well in an angry environment.
Curious!
Is a part of your decision to leave, have anything to do with being passed-over for the promotion to this position? I'm assuming you wanted his job. Am I correct?
