It's been many years since I've had to take a leadership role at work. 

Sure, I get to be the boss-lady (in some aspects) at home, but, work is a whole different story.

I've oft said that I didn't want to be in charge of anyone but myself and I still feel that way. 

But.  I think I can do good things with this team.  They're a great bunch and, if they train me to lead them right, we'll do even greater things.

So, I'm really trying to step carefully here.  That's why, when one of our primary servers went down last night, I decided to go back to work.

I was in my comfy jammies and was getting ready for bed when I got the call.  I don't think anyone would have blamed me if I didn't go, but, I kept thinking to myself that a good leader is there for their people and leaders lead by example.

So I went in.

I DID, however, sleep in late.  :)

Hmmmm, first it was Petty Officer Honey, then it was TSgt Sweetheart, and now it's Boss Lady Bebe.

You did exactly what you should have. That's called "leadership by example". Follow your gut feelings, & you'll be fine. ;)
