If we have a bunch of things he'll let us know what's priority over other work and set me free. He'll work an off shift to help out. He's even done that if they've been short handed for something he knew ahead of time like vacation. Not often, but at least he's willing to. I love leaders. RandallThe terms "leader" and "manager" are mutually exclusive. A manager can also be a leader, and a leader can be a manager, but a manager is not a leader.

All of us are either leaders or followers. I don't know if it has anything to do with astrology though. Leaders have a lot of self confidence.
