Nothing gets done half-heartedly and nothing gets done in secret. This is a placement that wants the work to be seen, not out of vanity alone but because being watched genuinely raises the standard of the performance. Put them in front of a room and they are better than they were in rehearsal. Put them in a back office with unattributed tasks and the drive thins out within weeks. They will take the difficult, visible job over the easy, invisible one every time, and usually do it well.
The temper is loud and stagey and almost never cruel. It concerns standing: being overlooked, being corrected in public, being told they do not matter. The roar is real but the intention is to be acknowledged rather than to destroy, and an apology offered promptly and in front of the same people who saw the offence ends the matter completely. Grudges are rare. What they cannot forgive is being made ridiculous, which they remember with unusual precision.
Loyalty runs in both directions and costs them. They defend subordinates, pay for dinners they cannot afford, and stay in fights that were never theirs because someone they like is losing. Underneath the confidence there is usually a persistent need for confirmation that the effort registered, and it surprises people who assumed such assurance was self-supplied. Praise them accurately, once, and they will work themselves half to death for the person who said it. Ignore them and the same person becomes sulky, ornamental, and slow.
