Things haven't changed a single bit....I am about to say farewell to the best Boss I have ever known; he's proper old school, each day he comes around the 'shop' at least twice a day and chews the fat with every single one of us; he knows our names, spouse's names and what we're up to job-wise and at home. Very approachable.
My previous Boss was a lovely guy, but espoused the best (worst) 'David Brent' (The Office) management style whilst leadership his style was the worst of Capt Mainwaring (Dad's Army). Never seen a Sqn run aground quite so comprehensively...was sad to have to release early, but so glad to be away from that train wreck.
