Now the theme will my job :)
The difficulties of working with someone who has very high expectations possibly driven by his inner disgust with authority. Or something. :)
WHY don't you FEEL as PASSIONATELY as I do about this topic!?!? If you did, you would behave the same way as me. It's repulsive that you do not feel the same way. That is the vibe I get from my boss. And you know what, he could be right. However, the fear I have of confronting him is too much for me to be able to show how much I do care. And it's also amazing to see how one's upbringing plays such an important roll in how they act as an adult. I assume.
What a person trying to discover who they are and what career path to take needs in a boss is the following:
1. Help and support in discovering what you are good at (I guess this is arguably not the best thing to do while you are supposed to be working at your job)
2. Then Find a Mentor (that's tough)
3. I am looking for a strong female mentor at the moment. I am taking applications. My mama and grandmother have been fantastic, but I need more.
4. Love.
5. This list clearly fizzled away.
Ok, if you can't do these things in your job, go to work and do it at home.
