New Job

I've been so busy that I lost some of my manners. I send too many emails everyday, and I forgot the simple courtesy of the greeting - Dear xyz - before firing on about what I need them to do for me. I do say thank you a lot though. And I can't count the number of times I write "please" weekly. I'm in the middle of the second month, life is good. That first month was brutal.

Someone asked me if I was making sure that my team members respect me. I wasn't certain of the answer to that (the answer is yes) but I replied, "I respect them."
