<div class="MsoNormal">
How can you be a Good Boss?
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Often, I think it is easier to explain how to NOT be a Good
Boss. I think that we have all had a gross boss or two in our lives (I
know that I have – sit next to me at the next shindig and I’ll tell you all
about her/him/it) and I learned as much about being a Good Boss watching them
treat people badly as I have watching a Good Boss shine. And I am not
saying that I am the best boss, either. I have made mistakes and will
continue to do so. But, IMHO, here are a few tips for becoming a Good
Boss:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Symbol;">·<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span><b>Be honest</b>. Most of the time, your staff
can take the truth – give it to them. Tell them why you made the decision
you did or why you are not going to be able to hire another person to do such
and such. Everyone sleeps better at night knowing that they were dealt
with in an honest manner – including you.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Symbol;">·<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span><b>Seek diversity in opinion</b>. I believe that
the best way to make a decision is to look at all sides. Your staff can
help you to see that your initial decision isn’t always the best
decision. And keep your door open – everyone feels more comfortable
knowing they can have your attention pretty much any time.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Symbol;">·<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span><b>Don’t sweat the small stuff.</b> In the grand
scheme of things, does it really matter if Susie Q calls her mom each
afternoon? If she checks facebook a few times? A little fun in
Susie Q’s day makes Suzie Q a happy employee, plus maybe Susie Q can transition
into your Social Media Maven for Moms!</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Symbol;">·<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span>Don’t sweat the small stuff unless it is driving
you ab-so-f’n-lutley crazy. Finally, someone has to tell the people who
use the microwave that they have to clean it. You are the boss, after
all.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Symbol;">·<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";"> <b>
</b></span></span><b>Remember that your staff members are not your
friends</b>. I know that this sounds funny coming from me, as those of you
who know me know that I consider some of my co-workers my very best
friends. But a wise CPD board member once told me something that I’ll
never forget. She said, “Paige, your staff members don’t think of you as
their friend. You are their boss.” Even though I absolutely love
all of the staff at CPD and would fight a circle-saw for every single one of
them, I must make decisions that are first and foremost for the best for the
kids served by our agency.</div>

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #4d4d4d;">Over the years, an All White Bed has become known as Peacock Alley's trademark look and we encourage our customers to use the All White Bed as a blank canvas to add in a little piece of you. Throw on some fun decorative pillows, or maybe even a bed scarf or cozy throw and the end of the bed? This is your chance to reveal your inner creativity and make your bed a true reflection of YOU!</span></span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

<strong><u>Tip # 3: Simplify!</u></strong><br />
<br />
Sometimes less is more. You don't necessarily have to add a bunch of pillows in different sizes and shapes to make your bed stand out. By adding a bold, vibrant print in small pieces you can accomplish so much more. Not only will you achieve that modern design look everyone craves but you can also switch out your look more often, at a minimal cost! That's the beauty of the White Bed - your bed accessories can change with your mood, style and trend but the "All White" canvas is timeless.<br />

<br />
1. One couple lives in Houston, but has a second home (trailer) in Marfa... Obviously an airstream.<br />
2. One owns a 1953 and had no idea THIS could be done.<br />
3. A lady and deceased husband traveled all over US until he passed last year. She will not travel anymore, but wants to redo her AS which created her best memories.<br />
4. A gentleman bought a new one, customized it, and for the past 8 months has lived in it vs. his home in Houston. He wants me to join his exclusive AS club.<br />
<br />
Cool people, best conversations, and appreciating life in the simplest way.<br />
<br />
Just bought a beautiful pregnant lady a tea at Whole foods, sent her to <a href="http://www.kuhl-linscomb.com/main.htm">Kuhl Linscomb</a> to buy ADDITIONAL <a href="http://www.peacockalley.com/Departments/Bedding.aspx">Peacock Alley bedding</a> (love all these customers who love pa), am finally eating lunch (possibly why I'm so skinny!), and am enjoying a frosted Stella with a chocolate chip icing'd sandwich. I love doing what I do!!!<br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">They also want me to 'Peacock Alley' their airstreams if they buy one. I'm going to start this new collection of Peacock Alley Airstreams that I will do in a variety of unique ways. My mind is in obvious over drive with new products lines being sold on our site right next to the bedding and bath.<br />
<br />
Also, never knew I could be happy in a parking lot!!! I slept in the trailer last night (best night sleep ever) and showered in the Kuhl Linscomb retail store. I want to live as a constant mooch where I can always plug in and shower in a near by facility or better yet a creek or lake... How damn cool!!!<br />

</tbody></table>This shoeless man in the picture is Josh Needleman. He is Peacock Alley's resident trailer driver. One day his older brother Jason was so sick of seeing his face around the Peacock Alley office that he decided to send Josh on a little adventure...<br />
<br />
It just so happened that Josh had this old, rusty trailer sitting at the back of the warehouse. He scrubbed it down and turned it into the beauty that is now known as "Steel Magnolia". <br />
<br />
Then off he went on his California road trip, two weeks full of fun, mischief and of course Peacock Alley linens.<br />
<br />
And now we are sharing all of Josh's "on the road antics" - featuring daily diary entries and never-seen-before photos - all of Josh's secrets will be revealed.

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Peacock Alley is going on the road with retro cool, selling linens out of their trunk, so to speak. And doing it in style.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Peacock Alley's restored 1977 Airstream named "Steel Magnolia" is changing the way linens are sold. She (Steel Magnolia) brings the trunk show to your very own doorstep. She may look like a silver bullet--cold and uninviting--but step inside to a haven of soft, comfy textures and soothing neutrals reminiscent of a fluffy feather bed. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;">The Silver Home Tour is hitting the nation city by city, store by store, giving customers a rare opportunity to learn about the Peacock Alley lifestyle and their wonderful collection of linens. And have a little fun doing it!</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Steel Magnolia will visit key Peacock Alley accounts and host parties where guests are given a tour of Steel Magnolia. They will hear more than they ever wanted to know about linens and a history of the iconic company from Peacock Alley's owner Josh Needleman--who can't stop talking about sheets! Customers can sip an umbrella'd cocktail or two before heading into their favorite linen store to shop for more Peacock Alley. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Josh's brother Jason was happy to get him out of the office. Josh didn't seem to mind a traveling office either.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"></div><br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">"We want to promote Peacock Alley's heritage and make it fun, flirty and a little cool at the same time," said Josh. "Just like Peacock Alley's linens, Steel Magnolia is sleek, classic and sexy. The more you use it the better it gets!"</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Ultimately, Peacock Alley's plan is to take The Silver Home Tour global. "Right now it's an airstream, next it will be a train, a plane and then a space shuttle," jokes Josh. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
