Submit a project and it will come back promptly with criticism that is vague, general and unhelpful. Emperor Joseph II once said of Mozart’s music, “There are simply too many notes, that’s all . Just cut a few and it will be perfect.” What to do? First, agree. Next, step back, wait and avoid furious cutting that demolishes your work. Tomorrow the boss will see things in a different, more favorable light.
The urge to speak sharp words has ended, finally, and a new time is beginning, one with more appreciation for what you’re doing. What’s good today? Brilliant, sunny people who are excellent role models, crisp thinking, well-done surgery for things that need extraction, and escape at the end of a long work day. New people are coming your way, be ready to meet them!
