I'm pretty sure you just described me in your post, so I know exactly where you're coming from!<br /><br />The thing that truly helped me was taking the Myers Briggs personality test during college. (Don't laugh!) My undergrad business school instructors had every student in the program take the test to prepare us for the massive amount of group work we would be forced to endure over the following two years. I'm telling you, that test told me so much about myself and my interactions with others! We had the opportunity to discuss the results with other members of our group and it was as if a light bulb went off - the motivations behind each of our differing actions wasn't because we were lazy, stupid, or trying to provoke each other, but because we viewed our choices and options differently. Taking that test saved me from going all Tom Cruise and jumping on couches after many harrowing nights working with people I wouldn't choose to hang out with otherwise. My sister is half-way through an MBA program and took the Myers Brigg. Like me, she LOVED it!<br /><br />Of course, if all else fails, you could always just make yourself a "What Would Oprah Do?" bracelet.<br /><br />Good luck playing nice!<br /><br />Amy<br />www.pot-meet-kettle.blogspot.comAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12000130674209520032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295072711393990197.post-41610303547948791942010-01-08T22:26:41.972-07:002010-01-08T22:26:41.972-07:00Hey Mrs Thang!
I feel your pain. Sometimes you hav...Hey Mrs Thang!<br />I feel your pain. Sometimes you have the right to poke out an eye or two but when that doesn't apply to the situation, ask yourself, if in a month, you will still care about the situation or if caring will make a difference in your life? If not-let it slide. Some people are just nincompoops. No explanation. No excuses.<br /><br />I have a random question for ya, how do you refer back to an old blog or a website without actually listing the web address to that place? Like when you referred to 'Shugs' being easy to shop for. I just can't figure it out.<br />Much thanks for expanding my brain power.<br />Hope all is well.<br />Kenzie<br />foxfirepromotions@gmail.comKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269130943415556813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295072711393990197.post-71495451428962073322010-01-08T14:48:22.468-07:002010-01-08T14:48:22.468-07:00The thing I've most tried to do is tell myself...The thing I've most tried to do is tell myself maybe they have something going on in their life that is causing them to be acting that way. Just like I have "bad" days and want to stomp people, I remind myself that maybe they are dealing with something big and their frustration is showing. Not sure if that helps you any but I hope so!Aprilnoreply@blogger.com
