My boss is a very well known and respected member of my community and I have asked him to write me a letter of recommendation to add to my application for uni next year. He has said he would be delighted to put forward a recommendation - HOWEVER - he has asked me to draft the letter first and then he will top and tail it.

I mean, I get that I am his secretary and all - but geez!!!

So now I am in the process of drafting the letter and I don't want to sound full of myself but at the same time I need to list all of my qualities. How am I going to feel when he puts big crosses through words that describe me and changes them?

AHHHHH..

So my question, should I include my qualities in the draft or should I just leave blank spaces for him to put them in?

This sucks
