My parents divorced when i was 6 and yes, i did for many many years always have the feeling that he 'abandoned' us, tho i guess you'd have to assign fault evenly. He was largely absent from my life throughout my 20s and a good part of my 30s though today we have a good relationship.

I've had many jobs and i tend to get very good reviews performance-wise by my managers, but i often have (privately) problems with overly dictatorial bosses. I do work best when self-employed or, like in my current job, with minimal supervision. I think our parents teach us a lot that for most people, doesn't even appear on the radar screen, that is, we're not even aware of what they teach us at times.
