Do you ever feel some people are just never going to be nice to you...?
despite the fact you have never, EVER done them wrong? And don't you just hate being dragged into their craziness/weirdness/derangement?

Like enough already. I just want to scream, I am nothing to you, leave me out of your delusions and get a freaking LIFE?

I hate work sometimes.

2. In a word, yes.

Darth, just move beyond them. They can only harsh on you if you let them. Learn the art of knowing yourself and they won't be able to drag you down.

6. Yeah but you have the power to thwart their attempts.
Trust me on this, grasshopper. Nothing short-circuits that behavior as effectively as being above it.

9. As the ever-sage Gormy Cuss said, there's NOTHING that frustrates someone who wants
to have a fight with you, than refusing to give them one.

Third or fourth time you do that, they'll get the message.

8. So don't let them drag you into their bullshit. You don't HAVE to, you know.
Edited on Tue Apr-01-08 09:12 PM by Redstone
Peopel can only drag you into their destructive vortexes (or should that be "vortices?")if you LET them do it.

That really IS true; trust me.

11. Just wish they would move on........
Edited on Tue Apr-01-08 09:24 PM by Darth_Kitten
direct their energies elsewhere......maybe it's just one more kick at the can, I don't know.
DK ain't nobody's ball to kick around anymore. :)

Effectively told a friend a while back that I wasn't her friend just so she can take out her moodiness on me (which started when I actually said she had a nice purse, and she snapped aren't I terrible?) She has been giving me the cold shoulder ever since. :eyes: Whatever.

Today's incident wasn't around her, around someone really ODD at work. I don't even really work with him, but he's got in his brain that I'm his problem. Thing is, I'm nothing to him,never WAS. Like move on, dufus. :)

10. There are a few people like that, for fortunately
only a few.

I'm sorry you have to deal with that. :hug:

14. Yes. Oh, yes. Emphatically yes. Yes to the point where I went out
for a drink after work, and I rarely drink, and usually reserve even a glass of wine for the weekend, and it's only fucking TUESDAY and holy shit, the bitch is lucky she lived to see five o'clock.
So yeah...I hear ya.

15. Yes. Fortunately it's pretty rare that I have to work with them...
...and rarer still that I actually have to interact with them. I figure the best course is to pity their ignorance, and not allow their negativity to drag me down.

17. So? Fuck 'em!
If people prove themselves to be complete douchebags, why do you care to curry their favor? Better off without them.

18. Yes, that's why I am unable to hold down a job.
The world is run by serious, humorless pompous assholes.
