If there’s one thing your friends know not to do around you, it’s to say, “Meh, the details don’t matter.” You know for a fact that it’s the little things that make the biggest difference, and you have no problem putting in the effort to make sure every “t” is crossed and every “i” is dotted. Of course, while you’re doing that, you’re also probably handling a variety of other high-stakes tasks because multi-tasking is your preferred way of working. You can manage multiple projects—each with their own timeline, needs, and personnel, of course—without ever getting flustered or forgetful. Yep, you can manage your time and priorities on your own, and you can take direction well (because you love working with people, of course.
