This post reminds me of how hyper I was about perfection in everything I wrote at school when I first became a schoolteacher. It came from my corporate days, where a boss or boss's boss would flip out if there was any sort of tiny error anywhere in an RFP. But at a school, they had to tell me to chill out, that what mattered to "the boss"(aka the principal) was that the kids were learning, not that I wrote a perfect memo. I eventually relaxed, and when I realized the kids were learning, I started sleeping better than I ever did before. :-)

You'll get up to speed really fast, I have no doubt.
