Let Your Boss Catch You Working

For a lot of people, the image of a "supervisor" is some guy standing around, holding a cup of coffee, watching other people work. That's why it is good to let your boss catch you working. Get out of your office, watch your people--but skip the coffee, lend a hand, have a quick stand up meeting, but do something that looks like work. You know, if you pretend to work long enough, you may actually get some work done by accident.
