Summary

Today’s expression and dialog: to breathe over someone’s shoulder Tim is constantly breathing over your shoulder! I know. He’s really nervous about the report. How’s it going? It’s almost finished. The NICEST thing about working for you all is...I have NOBODY watching me as I work!! I am my own boss! I don't have anyone checking my work...it's really nice!! When I worked at a language institute, my bosses ALWAYS checked my numbers--how many students did I have today, how many yesterday, why the difference, what did I teach, what did the students like, will the students register again the next month...ARGH!!! It was NOT very nice...but I do understand that a business can only survive if it has "good numbers". Well, I really ENJOY the freedom! Thank you!! Oh, today's expression? It's about my old bosses and teachers and my mom and others! Maybe yours, too! Enjoy! Coach Shane Please subscribe on iTunes and get this podcast EVERY DAY! Support Coach Shane by giving $1 a month!
