How can I change my attitude toward a manager at work with whom I have a weird relationship, as discussed in the episode 225: Kim Scott | Care Personally, Challenge Directly with Radical Candor and the clip Navigating Disagreement? Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently, but I'm frustrated with how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed. I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them.
