Man, what a bummer. I know the feeling.
I had a great! boss for the longest time. Never told me *how* to do my job, trusted me to know priorities, but available for questions. Plus he was so enthusiastic about our work that it was catching - I never minded working late or on weekends.
When our company was bought we all ended up wrapped in paperwork and such. It took longer to do the paperwork for a lot of projects than it did to just do the project. He had it even worse, being in management - and of course there were the layoffs that weren't pleasant.
About three years ago he got so fed up that he quit. I'm still in mourning.
But I'm trying to focus on how lucky I was to have him to learn from - and lean on.
