I must agree with Jadegrniiz that the absence of any of the categories listed would make my career less fulfilling.



To me, the most important thing is having my opinion solicited in the management process.  Working within a team of managers and having my voice carry the same weight as the other managers is worth so very much to me.



I have worked under tyrannical bosses and wimpy bosses and just plain psycho bosses.  While my work is not easy and throws new challenges at me each and every day, I thank my lucky stars (almost) every day for my general manager and the changes he has brought to our company.  My fellow managers come to me to discuss problems they are having within their departments and seek out my advice.  I can't tell you all how much that means to me.  And I, in turn, feel free to let my hair down with each of them when I have a problem.  We share our triumphs and our tragedies with each other, and our concern for each other is evident whenever a tragedy is upon us.  We are currently dealing with a heartbreaking situation, and our group has pulled together to be strong and supportive and hold each other up.



Respect is priceless, especially to admin personnel who have been through the mill.   To actually like and admire and respect the people with whom you work is the greatest job perk of all.
