I think I made an associate cancel his vacation today. He's scheduled to go away next week, to Bermuda. He asked me today if I think we'll need him on a case we're working on. I told him I'd never ask an associate to cancel a vacation, but I think it's a decision he has to make for himself. I could have said something else. I could have said "Absolutely not. Go and have fun." But instead I said what I said, in a tone of voice that made it pretty obvious what I wanted him to do. I'm a bastard sometimes. But they force us to be this way. They look at us like we're superhuman. They let us rule their lives. So what else can we do but try and be benevolent dictators. Or sometimes not so benevolent. The client will at least pay for the cancelled plane tickets.
