Tina FeyTina Fey In most cases being a good boss means hiring talented people and then getting out of their way.
Tina FeyTina Fey I was a hot-dog stand lady, I was an orphan housemother, I was a waitress 3 or 4 times. All of those jobs did not have good bosses. They basically told you what to do, when to do and when to hop. And I just didn’t like that very much.
