Here's a powerful tip that will make your boss think you are a superstar:
At all times, be able to give a 20 second answer to the question, "How's it going?" that is centered on the miracle you just pulled off and how you are saving the project with what you are working on.
Your manager only has 20 to 60 seconds. Be sure you include some phrase like, "I've got it under control," or the manager will go into problem solving mode. (Problems rub off on YOU in the manager's mind.)
You have to think up these miniture stories beforehand. BS will not work.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
