Great article, Jeff. Now that you're working with law enforcement, I'm sure you're seeing that sense of control even more clearly—because that's what they're constantly doing: solving problems as fast as they can (with ten more calls waiting on the board) for people who can't solve them on their own. It's hard to turn that off when they get "off" work.
Thanks Rob and yes, you're exactly right. I see two different types of clients: those who never turn it off and always seek control, and those who come home and detach from everything and everybody because they're emotionally, mentally, and physically exhausted. Definitely a hard job to simply "turn off."

I think I was a hybrid.

Hey Baird, let me get back to you on that in a few months.
