Whenever a colleague says a feat is impossible you find a way to make it doable. This is good but remember it’s the other person who needs to step up to the plate; not you.
You learn through the grapevine that you misjudged someone. It’s never too late to right past assumptions.
You’re uneasy taking charge of people who are supposed to be in charge, but a director needs directing. Thankfully you know how to do this discreetly.
You don’t like being dictated to, but if you cooperated then things wouldn’t get heavy-handed. Yield and the other person yields back.
You see the fly in the ointment that others can’t. Take this time to figure out a solution so that it’s ready when you hear the telltale shriek.
Criticisms sting and you’re close to walking. But is there any truth to them? If so, address it. You’d only recreate this situation elsewhere.
