/var/log/manager: I’m the Manager, This Is My Job

I’ve written “/var/log/manager” for the past two years. The concept was to open a window into how technical managers think and why they act the way they do, and to offer help and guidance to young sysadmins trying to grow in their careers. This is my last “/var/log/manager,” and I hope you’ve enjoyed reading as much as I’ve enjoyed writing. I’d love to hear from you. What are your thoughts, ideas, and problems with respect to these issues? Over the last 11 articles, I have covered themes of communication, understanding, leadership, career management, prioritization, and problem-solving. This last “/var/log/manager” entry is my manager’s playbook.
