I am tired and frustrated by people who are so entirely fake and... in my rage, the best I can come up with is, "not nice people." (Really eloquent, no?) Jeez.
Granted, I do not have the most patience with people who are incompetent, but I do what needs to be done, and I try not to hold it against someone personally. However, the same incompetents do hold the most petty incidences against you, no matter how professional you keep things.
"Life is pain..." right?
WTFE.
Wow, I can relate to this because of the community I grew up in and the schools I went to where all the princesses and guys had Mommy and Daddy buy them cars and give them credit cards to buy expensive clothes. Some girls even had their parents fly them to New York to buy their prom gowns. One girl who lived a few houses from me and was one of my childhood friends got into that "fake" crowd and she would write each outfit she wore each day on her calendar and couldn't repeat said outfit no sooner than 2 weeks. And after all these years when she got married and worked for Coca-Cola she moved to Brussels and once wrote me about some special Japanese material she had draperies made out of. ::rolls her eyes:: I don't keep in contact with her anymore because I cannot tolerate such silliness. I also have a low tolerance for incompetence especially with grammar and speech because it is so distracting to me that it actually hurts my brain. Maybe it is the Virgo in me in that Virgoans are highly critical perfectionists and something I need to tone down a bit. I enjoy your site because you are very articulate and it provides me with enjoyable reading and my brain is at peace.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot. One should blog for oneself, but of course you do hope people will read it and enjoy it, so I really appreciate your comments very much!
I agree, it is cathartic and I have a page in which I do blog but enjoy reading the thoughts of others.
