[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My old boss had obvious ADHD.  She was always all over the place and everyone talked about it.  You’d be in her office for a meeting and she’d be scrolling the internet looking at shoes or something.  Then around 6:00, she’d get stressed (likely because she didn’t get anything done all day) and starts calling everyone on the team asking for things.  Everyone got extremely frustrated by the fact that they worked all day and she didn’t seem to really start working until everyone else was ready to sign off.  I worked for her for a year and a half before I found a new job.  My new boss gives me 100% attention in meetings and  at the end of the day is always telling us to sign off, whatever we’re working on can wait.[/quote]

100% this is my work style, not by choice. But I also like not being a jerk. It is possible to manage yourself and team. The first couple years working, I would have to repeat to myself that saying "Poor planning on your part does not necessitate an emergency on mine." Now, it's ingrained in me. I only procrastinate on things that don't impact others. [/quote]
