I'm a rock star?

Someone who, in a professional I setting, finally saw me for the hard working person I am has moved on to bigger and better things.

He hired me. He encouraged me. He pumped me up when I was down and out. And he always knew how to tell me I was doing something wrong without making me feel like I was being reprimanded, which is a huge thing for me, because I absolutely hate being  "scolded".

His unexpected departure had me in tears all night but I was able to snag a moment alone with him to tell him how much I'm going to miss him and why. He scolded me for crying, which made me laugh, then genuinely praised my work ethic...
"Hannah, you're a rock star. You don't even know. You have made such a huge difference down here..."

A... Rock star? The rock star himself is calling me a rock star.

And I believe him.
