Ha! I was imagining a good boss -- someone whose job it is to give me positive and negative feedback. I imagined them doing it with a professional, supportive demeanor.
Somehow I needed to imagine it was someone with the "right" to give me negative feedback, otherwise it might get my hackles up more.
