I suppose at my core I am someone who considers himself a good dude. I’d like to think that I serve the greater good. I am not a rescuer and I am not someone who feels like he is a great protector. What I am is a guy who does not like to see people get over if they clearly don’t deserve it. In other words I don’t like seeing hustlers who are bad at the game. Most of the people like this are assholes. Consider Trump. This is a man who is by the very nature of his history someone who has gotten over again again and again. He is getting over right now beyond this simple impeachment removal of office trail. In truth he’s getting over and everything he does as a president. His profit from this experience tremendously. I’m not talking about Obama level profit or Clinton level profit or bushel of a profit I am talking about a man who has invested tons of government money into his own business with his own name on it. And he has used the divisive Ness of the American people to profit time and again. I haven’t seen this much in your face shadiness since dick Cheney gave a bunch of money to his friends to wage wars .
I get really upset when I see this on the local level. I get even more disappointed when I see this at the workplace level. I see and hear all the time and I am seeing it in my current situation. When people have the opportunity to fail up merely on the power of their ability To convince others of the need to protect and support them then they turn what is meant to be a meritocracy into a Nonsensical mess the benefits no one but the individual failing. As a result of this others are forced to feel socially powerless, to work much harder in order to accomplish much less, and perhaps most importantly to feel powerless and ejected in their rules. I have seen this time in again. I am seeing this again. In simpler terms I can’t deal with assholes and I really can’t deal with incompetent assholes.
no I’m not saying that everybody who have dealt with in this basket is an asshole often I don’t know them well enough to make that determination. I can say that I have almost always encountered situations where people are not always held to the same standards. And that resulting schism creates for a negative spiral that inevitably leads to more than just hurt feelings but often the failure of the organization or unit to be able to accomplish its goals in any meaningful way.
So, yeah. That is just something I had to get off my chest I am still feeling around and probing out the situation that I am in. I am still happy to be in the situation I have. I am not willing to say that any one individual is responsible for any one individual is a problem I am not open to putting peoples business out on the street like that. I’ve learned Over the years that it is best – always best To handle things internally. I will also say that as a writer I have learned that people often go through the same situations time and again. It always feels like a relief to hear or to read that someone else has gone through what you are going through. So it is for the reason that I share these situations. I am perfectly willing to admit that I am Possibly Possibly wrong in my understanding of the situation. However it is also important to note that these situations are born out of misunderstanding of individuals and misunderstanding of goals. Often, in fact all too often, people working in the same place or not working towards the same goals and I can guarantee people working in the same place I’m not always in agreement on how to achieve the same goals. Therefore when it appears that one party is preference over the other or that one party is held to higher and by default one party is Alta lower standards in the other it creates for a lot of dysfunction and ultimately leads to people feeling like somebody there is the asshole.
when that inevitably happens, I start to feel empathy Towards all parties involved and as a result the party deemed to be at fault even if falsely, rent space in my head
