Believed Quotes
I didn't really start building my own stuff until I was 24, 25 or so, and even then, I ran into a lot of resistance from, like, older folks, like my bosses at other companies or people in the industry that were like, 'Oh that's an interesting idea, but it will never work.' And, I don't know, I kind of believed everything that they told me.

Among Quotes
I think there are too many bosses in Washington telling Nashville Diesel College and Harvard University how to run - how to run their campuses, and I'd like to reduce the number of Washington regulations on higher education and keep this marketplace of wonderful institutions among which students can choose; that's oriented toward job growth.

Amendment Quotes
Very emphatically, I never, ever in my 18 years of coaching have forced a young man or demanded or made it mandatory for a young man to attend church, ... I appreciate the ACLU, but to not listen to my bosses and to file a complaint, maybe its mission is to be controversial. Obviously I know the difference between making it mandatory and personal convictions and what the First Amendment says.

Celebrate Quotes
More than half of people who leave their jobs do so because of their relationship with their boss. Smart companies make certain their managers know how to balance being professional with being human. These are the bosses who celebrate an employee's success, empathize with those going through hard times, and challenge people, even when it hurts.
-
Attention Quotes
I got into paying attention to cities and when I moved downtown I would go into stores that were more mom and pop, so I would get to meet the people and talk to them, ...

Believe Quotes
I belong to the Screen Actors Guild and so I'm very proud to be a union member ? I believe very strongly in unions, ... to have union bosses take money out of a worker's paycheck and use it for political campaigns without permission is wrong. Because that worker maybe doesn't believe in what they put the money into.

Filled Quotes
My bosses said, 'He's a mean, old man. He's not going to talk to a kid like you who's just starting out,' ... But he was very warm, very hospitable.

-
Boat Quotes
You can have the talent at one level, but when you get to the next level, it just doesn't happen. It's like the young guy selling insurance. One year, he sells $6 million of life insurance, and then his bosses say, 'Wait until he really learns how to sell.' But then he's got a boat and a country-club membership, and all of a sudden, he's not as good. That's what happens with players.
-
Biases Quotes
When it comes to getting promoted, you want to present yourself in a way that feeds into the biases that bosses have about what makes someone promotable. You're already doing the hard work, so why not frame your effort in such a way that it increases your chances of obtaining the position you want?

Challenges Quotes
As they settled into marriage, 'Blondie' started to resonate with more people, ... Dagwood wasn't too different than a lot of guys. He forgets to take out the garbage. He'd rather eat one of his huge sandwiches than go out to any fancy restaurant. Hopefully, most people don't have bosses like Mr. Dithers but they could definitely relate to some of the challenges at the workplace.
-
Car Quotes
It's at times like this that the bosses have to hold their heads up and really earn their money. We have a fast car and we just need a few things to go right in order to prove its performance. There will be no knee-jerk reaction. Honda are in formula one for the long term and the pressure on us to perform is self-generated from within the team.
-
Companies Quotes
In most cases, tech workers don't telecommute because their bosses discourage it or their companies prohibit it. Sixty percent of help-desk and support workers don't telecommute at all -- often because they're in the office supporting all the other telecommuters. In some cases, they're working on large, expensive equipment that you just can't take home with you.
-
Beyond Quotes
If you have a special situation that really was beyond your control, like a medical expense, then perhaps you can find a way to bring that up. But in general, while many bosses will care on a personal level, ultimately your problems aren't the company's problems. Keep it about your performance, rather than need.

Debate Quotes
All of these union bosses are terrified that the governor's reforms are going to take power and influence out of Sacramento and give it back to the people of California, ... The debate over the special election is a simple one - vote yes on the governor's reforms if you want real change, vote no if you are happy with the way things are.
