re: Do you like your boss? If not, why?

My contractor boss is a yes man. That likely is his major character flaw. He stays out of my way and never seems to bother me so that's a good thing. My NASA boss is quiet and I hardly ever hear from him, until it's status report time. But I have worked for some guys who wanted to be "in your kitchen" and that's just annoying.

Best "boss" I ever had, hands down was when I was working CCTT at Camp Beauregard. Bill K was the BEST guy to work for. Retired Army Aviator and he knew how to motivate people and get the most from them. One time I dropped a socket down in the well of the Bradley simulator and there was only one way to get it...I lowered Bill by holding onto his feet and he shimmied down and got the socket...we only had one....He even asked that we "PT" on Fridays we weren't training. That included any kind of physical activity..even playing golf. Best job ever until corporate got involved and screwed things up.
