    BTW The old sh*t sandwich is an effective management technique. You start and finish a conversation with some nice bread. Yum Yum. But shove the sh*t in the middle. Maybe complement that he works hard (hence the sweat). Then get the unpleasantness over with. Before ending on a high. Talk about his future maybe.:)

    I use a version of this called the "Bathtub effect" - you start at the top of the bath, on a high. Then you go down into the bath to discuss the unpleasant stuff then climb out of the bath on a high.
