That I don’t just have a boss, I have a friend. I actually enjoy my job, and most of the time I’m working side by side with him. He deserves these cookies and besides…I know he’d share! 😉 😉

Improving my time management skills.
My boss is great he is patient and as long as you are trying and staying busy he don’t care. He is happy if you ask question and if you are standing around with your hands in your pocket he will say something. He is fair and easy going and believes in a a days pay for a days work
To be honest first & foremost in dealing w/ everyone
The cream always rises to the top.
My boss always taught me to be patient and how you always want to make a good first impression,because despite what is said a first impression is what matters and how a person will always see you.

Be patient and communicate clearly. Also, document everything.
Do my best and don’t sweat the small stuff.
Don’t be afraid of mistakes.
When you set a goal make sure it is S.M.A.R.T.
Goals should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely.
The most important thing I learned from my boss is compassion and willing to go the distance with you to succeed.
Pick your battles!
My boss reads a lot and it come out a lot in his work; I learned a lot from him from his many quotes and inferences! I love to read as well.
That everyone should be replaceable and that when you become irreplaceable you become unpromotable.
Always keep documentation backup on everything.
Be enthusiastic, have patience & do the best job possible.
Stay positive, focused, and never lose hope on your goals. You can do anything as long as your priorities are right!
To practice the golden rule and always take the high road!
I think my boss has taught to all of us in the office that no matter what your age or race or ability, you can succeed. That nice is still okay in this tough economic time. That sometimes we have to make sacrifices for work. Also that you need to spend time with your staff and reward for hard work and also to get to know each other. We are working very hard, long hours and little rest but she is trying very hard to make us have fun too. She also reminds us to have fun at work too.
LPC = Least Preferred Coworker! hahaha
