What types of decisions I did or I did make without consulting my boss, also nothing. I've held various part-time positions while I was in college, either at coffee shop or waitressing. The moment I first got my bigger job, it's been a very ingrained habit for me to always communicate. I always check with my manager, my supervisor or my sales director to see if this is how I should reply to a certain client or if I should let the deal go or if I should keep pursuing this. The only time where I do something without consulting upper management is when they grant me the autonomy to do so.
