MODERATORS
 

Was thinking about moderators, and how users always have plenty of opinions about what moderators are doing wrong, but seems like you see less commentary from the moderators themselves about what it takes to do a good job.

Which is probably true across any situation where there's a smaller number of leaders and a larger number of people in other roles.

Having experienced it, what does it take to lead a project, be a supervisor/boss, board member, pastor, dungeon master, legislator, etc?

I do think most companies do a good job and safety is their priority and most drivers have the right mindset. I feel that paying drivers by the mile instead of percentage of the load or hourly is the biggest factor in why drivers try to rush and get frustrated though so if that was an industry wide change I think it would help. Overall I think that unsafe drivers are a very small portion of the workforce but the average person would only notice those few, a polite, safe, driver is mostly unnoticed because they're just doing what you expect.
