George W. Bush is able to separate friendship and business. You can be his friend, get a job working for him but he will fire your butt if you don't do that job and show up at your door for dinner as a friend. Larry Lindsay was a good friend of his but he did not hesitate to remove him when he was not satisfied with the job he was doing. President Bush is loyal but you better produce.
Dead on. I think that qualifies as hard to work for. Because results are hard.
And God bless him for that!
