Currently I have an "un-ideal" (is that a word?) job with a great boss who I enjoy working for. I don't mind getting up and getting an hourly wage. I have also worked for an "un-ideal" boss in an "un-ideal" job which was pure torture. The observation I want you to know about is the position where I was in an ideal position for an "un-ideal" boss which, as it turns out, has been the most emotionally damaging position that I have ever been in to date. It is a situation that I have every intention of NEVER repeating again. <BR/>Finally, a question: how much time do you forsee actually spending with this person? Might it actually be someone who you can blow off?<BR/>Sorry, this got a bit long. You're still loved...Mandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17819305986776936595noreply@blogger.com
