I don't know how to make my manager understand that I am a perfectionist. I am a defective, anxiety-ridden bundle of nerves and I don't know WHY, I just am. I don't like it, but it's how I'm wired. So when I make mistakes, I'm going to go "AAH" and apologize profusely. I know I'm going to make mistakes, but that doesn't mean that I am going to like it. I can, in fact, guarantee it that I am really going to hate it. If I worry about screwing up, it's not because I want you to pet my ego. And likely the only reason I'm going to tell you is because you asked and I am just being honest.

I am, in retrospect, glad that I never got rid of this icon.
