Quote: I would love to see her approach it like the others but she is simply a different kind of person. She's seems to keep very quiet but is showing results.
Trust that. Go with it. Feel REALLY lucky!
Quote: How would I like working for a boss that badgered me over my process instead of just giving me a deadline and expectations? That's what I'm having trouble with. The more I act like that, the less motivated she will be to work on the issues because she will see me as a-hole instead of a desirable, suckable guy.
Trust me when I say I have read VERY few statments on here that are as wise as what you've written.
Sounds like you're on the right track, and I can't wait for the day when you post your goodbyes here, never to return. We'll all applaud that!
