Listen to Your Gut

[jmellc]

Twice lately, I've had a job turn out less than I wanted because I followed the boss' wishes or the customer's. Not the end of the world but I knew going in I'd rather do things a different way. Sure enough, a few things changed and I had to do crazy backtracking. I might have had a little friction doing it my way but nothing too serious.

If your gut is well tuned, follow it and don't let others dissuade you.

If you can convince your boss that your way is better good on you. But I would never let a customer tell me how to do my job.

My gut always says "eat", I usually listen. Now they seems to be a lot more gut.

I agree that we serve a two-headed monster. The boss and the customer do a walk-thru, make a napkin drawing and agree on a price.

After I listen to the boss' version of what the customer wants, I go to the site and install what the customer needs.
