Tail wags, dear readers. Stormy here with today's post. As most of you know, I am the leader and alpha of the Ao4. I am also the dean of the Stormy Zoluschka Kryschtal School of Siberian Studies. I've taught a few on-line classes on the blog, the most notable one being my Cooperating for Photos 101 series. I'm so very, very proud of how well all of you did! I thought it was time for another course - and this one is Leadership Studies 101. We'll begin today!
Today's lesson is simple - never ask your subordinates to do something you're not willing to do yourself.
Mull that one over for a while; I'll be right back with you.
That's it for today. I'll have another lesson up again soon.
Tail wags,
Stormy

ReplyDeleteAnd heeding your classes most assidi.....dously....(er, sorry I lost the dictionary while I was scratching something distinctly itchy there..) I digress.....
I wonder if you could include in your lessons the following subject to be barked/wooed and possibly if humans are invited, "discussed".
"Master or Servamt?" In the Dog - Human Relationship.......
My answer is "just remember who shovels whose poop up"
A Poop Lesson for Us All methinks....
