I admit I have felt pride when I heard my first boss in tax own up to a mistake. The second firm tended to hide mistakes, if they could.

I truly hate the words "this is how it's always been done". Staff have been yelled at for that. Also, I am never wrong. If you think I am wrong, it is simply because I am testing you. Did you pass?

This reminds me of "Unforgiven" when the young gunslinger feels guilty about shooting a cowboy: "He had it coming, didn't he?" Eastwood's character replies, "We all have it coming."
