@BuckWoodyMSFT The line between stupid and brilliant is often subjective.

@BuckWoodyMSFT I guess I know one of the next growth areas I need to work on.

[Michael Wells @SqlTechMike]

@BuckWoodyMSFT I still have difficulty seeing myself as someone worthy of mentoring others. I know that it is just a symptom of imposter syndrome, and after 20+ years in IT, there are definitely some hard earned nuggets of wisdom. It's just something that I wrestle with.

@BuckWoodyMSFT I have a variation of the same, but badge, wallet, keys, phone...without the tune.

[Michael Wells @SqlTechMike]

@BuckWoodyMSFT It will accept help...or else
