Supervising takes a special breed. You probably do have this, but you've got to learn to delegate and accept the results (more or less, depending, and that's the critical call). If you're not getting results from people under, they need to be moved. That's probably not easy working for the state.

So I feel for you if you give a siht. If not so much, then you should be grand.

And yes, if it weren't for people, decision making is good stuff. Makes you think.

Best job I ever had was superintendent. I had no employees of my own, only subs. I could say anything needed to be said and it was law. I fired people in the middle of the day if I needed to. Get out, and don't come back. Most of my contracts were T&M so I could do that and that's why I like T&M. If done right, that's the wholesale rate in construction. Sorry I digressed.

Good luck whichever way you choose.
