No, but he has plenty of flair. I always kept beyond busy as a manager. I create large lists for those working for me. I prioritize them, make sure all tasks are progressing and helping troubleshoot those tasks that are falling behind. I interface with the outside world and handle all the exceptions. If things are running smoothly there is nothing to do but things are never running that smooth. If so I invent more products that the company can make money from or look for ways to reduce expenses. Never any slack time. But that is the way I like it.

I haven't had a single role position in decades. is this why fractional employment is so popular now? it seems everything is always waiting on something, a call, a meeting, a task completion by somebody else. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
