Absolute PowerHave you ever been put in a position of power? Did you become a rabid dictator, or did you completely arse it up and end up publicly humiliated? We demand you tell us your stories.
Thanks to The Supreme Crow for the suggestion

Not wanting to be the boring fart herebut instruct them in the correct way of doing things, even if you've worked out shortcuts that make the whole process take half the time.
Point out the possible shortcuts, by all means, but show them the correct way of doing it first.
The best bosses I ever had did that with me. The worst just showed me the half arsed method, which led to lots of trouble on my part when something didn't follow routine and I was stuck not knowing what the hell I was doing as I'd never been instructed in the proper way first...

Stuffed Chimp - Thanks for that. Good advice. It's a technical theatre, rigging lighting and sound course. There are many many hacks and shortcuts I use everyday. Nice to be reminded that there's a 'proper' way to do things and it's important to do that first.
