Conversation

My new boss is pretty great. I made a mistake this morning and he mentioned it to me. Before I left for the day, I took a moment to apologize and started to explain what I did wrong and how I’d avoid doing it again. He stopped me, saying he’d rather I keep working autonomously and make the occasional slip than wait for his approval for everything, and told me to keep doing exactly what I’m doing.

Man, that was a relief and a confidence builder.
