a previous managers' management style was limited to "Work harder . Work faster ." upon leaving the company and shacking his outstretched hand i felt ill for the rest of the day .

It's taken me a long time but I have evolved as a manager to where I understand that the people in the trenches are the ones earning our money, and my only job is to smooth their way so that the income keeps rolling in. That includes seeing them as people with hopes and fears. It also includes "tough love" whenever it is needed.
If a client rings and our priorities change the team will rise to the occasion if I am seen as one of them and ask for their help in meeting the new priority.
It's all about people. See them, care for them, be honest with them and work can be enjoyable and successful.

Total guess: SILICON? A "Drunk Crook" could be a "Silly Con"?

“This” directionless could mean it starts with “Thi”
but I cannot connect the rest.
Drunk as imbibed or inebriated or ?
|
|
|
|
|
Probably imbibed:
crook - bend
directionless - be(n)d
this - post - (mumble mumble mumble) - i'm bi
drunk - imbibed
|
|
|
|
|
That's what I made it

I like this “directionless” better.
I was stuck on crook -> criminal -> thi-eved?
“imbi” looks like an acknowledged stretch.

We give up !!!

So it would've been time for a new SOTW by now, but I haven't posted one for seven weeks now and today's not going to change that.
I've been quite busy, privately with my girlfriend and professionally with my new (first) employee and more projects than I can handle, as well as other things that I would normally be busy with anyway.
Good things to be sure, but I've been listening to music a lot less and when listening I've been listening differently.
Unfortunately, I don't see that changing anytime soon.
So after seven(!) years the curtain officially falls for the SOTW.
Thanks for the amazing recommendations over the years
Going to end this with an old favorite of mine that just popped up into my head.
Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman - Time To Say Goodbye[^]
Needless to say, I'll still be around posting my Wordle scores and an occassional bad joke
