I'd like to tell you about a time when I had to be patient. It happened when I was in my final semester in college in 2023, and I had to complete my final assignment. However, my supervisor at that point was a super perfectionist and also had a tight schedule. I had to deal with her in a sense that there was a time when she canceled our meeting or consultation all of a sudden. The first time I was a bit upset, but by the third time, I was angry when, without giving any information or a call, she canceled our meeting. I was angry because I could not sign up for the final exam that month. Instead of showing my anger to her in the next meeting, I thought it was better to hide it. Besides that, I also had to be patient with her perfectionism when she asked me to look for a variety of references or journals that met her expectations as well as her principles. Luckily, I could overcome that obstacle. At the end of the day, she felt sorry for her behavior and her rules. So, yeah.
