I can't think of better jobs to automate than middle management. They cost inordinate amounts of money compared to rank and file workers, and they usually don't produce jack shit. They're glorified taskmasters sans whip.
Well, that just means your boss and his boss aren't just glorified zoo keepers and actually contribute something to the bottom line.
Many of them don't, however. My very own superior definitely falls in the same category as yours. He's someone who leads by example and isn't afraid to get "down in the trenches", so to speak, so he has my utmost respect.
I've never had a boss who doesn't work more than I do. This is one of the reasons I have no desire to move into management.
