why do you care so much about what authority you have? just do your best, unless your job is actually telling people what to do.

He literally says.. 

 

Then you aren't doing your job good enough. You are being too easy and chill. You need to give them a nice growl if they don't listen to you. You are working for a company, they expect you to do the job yourself. You shouldn't always rely on asking the person higher than you to help you do your job (assuming this happens daily). If they simply don't listen, make them understand what will happen. You have to act like a boss, you cannot be nice to them. 

Keep growling at them and wait for them to complain. Then you can say that they were simply not listening to you and they hadn't done their job properly. 

Fire some people, make them fear you.

damn dude
