no, just from 00 talking about his job and related things I was thinking his experience may be more applicable to me. If you have input, I'm all ears.
What was the question? On what I think of being a manager?

It is a borrowed corgi, my dog is a boxer mix. Haven't been to Hawaii but I love warm weather and the beach.
Getting unexpected time off is not nearly as fun when you are paid hourly.
Also the downfall of salary though. Right now I'm working 25-30 hours a week but getting paid for 40. A little over a month ago I was working 90 hours a week but getting paid for 40.
So we went into the walk-in clinic today to see what might be wrong with husband. (They think a sinus infection in the left cavity of the forehead)
Anyway!
As my husband's at the desk, giving his info, there was a lady with a 2.5-3 year old boy in the waiting room, I believe waiting for a ride after being seen. The boy was wandering around, getting perhaps a little too close to other people, getting places he really shouldn't have been. Mom never moved. "Andrew, get over here. Andrew, come sit down right now..." Even I, non-parent, knew this was falling on deaf ears, and probably he should have been gathered up and kept from wandering. (No matter how much he protested)
So, we're called back immediately, nurse takes pulse/temp/bp, and the NP comes in less than 5 minutes later. Not 3 minutes into his exam, the fire alarm goes off. (One of those "WONK WONK WONK *pause* WONK WONK WONK") The NP rolls his eyes, says "I bet a kid in the waiting room pulled it." He sticks his head out quick to make sure there isn't an actual fire, and tries to continue his exam while the office staff try to turn off the alarm and get a hold of OFD so they at least know it's not urgent. Problem is, the staff can't find the key.
Needless to say, I'm 88% sure lil' Andrew got a hold of that alarm. I'm not so certain about any type of scolding/punishment from mom, though.
Anyway, CG, to answer what I deduced was your question based on 00's answer, management is management. I'm assuming yours is a smaller scale with a handful of employees and not my 26 stores, but it essentially doesn't change much. It is what your personality makes it.
I know I talk up the bad parts when I'm venting, but, at least the employees that actually care about their jobs, I care very much for and defend greatly. I think you have to have two key traits to be a good manager: willing to take the fall for something if your employee needs to be protected/willing to give the credit for successes and having to be able to hold someone accountable regardless of what your feelings of them are. A good manager accepts the blame for the team's shortcomings and give te credit for successes.
Or you could just be completely awesome and amazing like me. But that's just natural, I don't know if I can teach that.
It's just all smoke and mirrors...and corgis.
I forgot to eat dinner last night.
So the thing to do in 6th grade is bring a big cookie in on your birthday. I don't need no Cookies, Etc. Gotta wait for it to cool to frost it. Check one thing off the list . . .
