Coincidentally I have been planning to make a post on my most recent boss, a Pisces Sun, Cap Moon, Cap Mars, Aqua Mercury in his late twenties.

The good: Very driven, determined, hardworking, rarely takes no as a final answer from a client and nearly always manages to lead them into closing a deal but in a way that seems like it was their idea the entire time. His ability to connect with people (when he chooses to do so) is incredible. He was understanding and considerate to me (his only employee.)

Not great: Disorganized, avoids details, unable to multitask, finds paperwork overwhelming in general, childish, enjoys stirring up office drama for fun, (sidenote: sees dating as a fun sport for sleeping with women, told me all the stories which is inappropriate in a professional setting so..) often lacks discernment.

Overall I liked him as a boss. It was my job to tie up his loose ends so his not great stuff was not an issue. I'm not Cap sun but I feel I express my Cap Mars in work environment particularly.

had a pisces manager when i first switched career to chase a dream. i need a stepping stone never intended to stay long and she knew it. she and the scorpio boss gave me big raise hoping i would stay longer. the very next day she called me to her office to express how disappointed she was because a close friend of hers informed her that i was sending out resumes right after the raise lol. she said this is a niche industry i know everyone. i kept a poker face told her i work hard here but you know my dream. nothing personal. she calmed down a bit. i continued sending out resumes and left in a few months. she was cool about it because i became a good client of hers lol.

"it's just business, nothing personal". i'm a capricorn after all lol

lol
When my previously mentioned boss gave his notice recently he felt so guilty about leaving for another company. I had to kind of talk him through how everyone should understand exactly this. It's business. Period. Cap Moon and Mars didn't stop his Pisces feels! He appreciated it and was like, "You're right. Thanks for reminding me!"

Gosh, a capricorn just has a hard time accepting all the excuses. Just get' 'er done! lol!
It's going to be really hard for me to be patient and deal with that kind of stuff in a boss. I fear that I'll end up pushy and condescending. I'm going to have to learn to be more passive and less direct.

Thanks for the advice, though. It will really be helpful. I think I need to make it my screen saver. lol!

She's one that got promoted to the position, so she's not new to the company or our way of doing things. I know, the transition period will be rough for a while. Just hope she gets better about responding more quickly.
