I think there's an important distinction between this and one post the author mentions he was inspired by, the "How to Rands" post [1].

From How to Rands:

> The following is a user guide for me and how I work. It captures what you can expect out of the average week working with me, how I like to work, my north star principles, and some of my, uh, nuance. My intent is to accelerate our working relationship with this document.

"How to Rands" is not saying "you need to do this to work with me." Rather, it's describing some of his preferences, behavior, etc.

I think a rename of OP's title from "How to work with me" to "How I like to work" or even just "About how I work" might more clearly communicate the author's original intent. (if I understand David's intent correctly, that is!)

> I respond poorly to being told what to do (“Rands, do X.”)

This is a joke, right?

I don't think Rands often tells people what to do. I think he's more likely to nudge.
