Unsolicited Praise

That makes twice this month that somebody said they would go out of their way to work with me. I'm not accustomed to that.

I try to be good at what I do in a matter of fact way. Historically, this has bred resentment or jealousy. Now, it may actually be creating ... admiration? I may have to work on how to take a compliment.

I'm advanced enough in my career field that I actually have things I can teach to those who are up and coming. If they're willing to learn, I'm willing to mentor.

That's how I learned it myself. Where is that eager beaver kid now? Excuse me, I have to go count some grey hairs.
