Well, maybe. I’m actually skeptical that it would have much effect on my productivity. But to reverse the question, suppose you actually did know this about your boss. If you could snap your fingers and erase the knowledge from your brain, would you do it? Would you go on deleting all information that causes you to resent someone, so long as that information wasn’t visibly relevant to some other pending decision?
Deleting information doesn’t make emotions go away. Being afraid and not knowing the reason for being afraid is much worse than just being afraid.
You start to rationalize the emotions with bogus stories to get the emotions make sense.
