Ask Amy: Kindly atheist just wants to say ‘no’
Your children will not experience the trauma you were exposed to in childhood because they have you as a mother and you will protect them. Of course you will!
Dear Amy: “Can’t Handle Critiques” went into a tailspin when her boss pointed out minor errors.
Bosses need to make workers feel good about the important work they do and not get so stressed out that they make even more mistakes.
Giving praise: "I did see one very minor thing amongst all the great work you did..." will go a long way.
To err is human. I’m the head of quality assurance at a high-tech company, and make a pretty good living because of this human trait.
– Charlie from Silicon Valley
Dear Charlie: Quality wisdom! Thank you.
