Dear Bill. I am writing to apologize. I do not know what came over me when I introduced you to my coworkers as my stepfather.

A rainy Thursday night in Manchester, and I'm still holed up in the hotel. I've been here since Sunday night, running a training course for a crowd of German sales staff, hating every second. They respect the skills I have to offer them but they are a team, and I'm not a part of it. Every night they are polite to me over dinner, and then the conversation spe...
