Always a good thing. However, in my case, I'm my own boss and, therefore, promotion depends only on the day and hour. Successively salesman, accountant, psychologist (with my clients often), housekeepers, deliveryman, bunsinessmanager, conceptors, comm planners, writer, webmaster, manager... and, the worse, remain to wake-up when you would love to remain cosy in the bottom of your bed or when there is such interesting exchanges on Twilight

.
Still, I have worked for large companies and, no way, I'll ever have a boss on the top of my head again.
