You know what I do with that???? I dig a deep hole and bury it!!! I don't believe even a fraction of what I hear second hand, most of which is transmitted because of a personal vendetta and through someone seeking backing of an "attitude."
I give everyone a fair shake first hand. When/if they do it to me???? .... it will warrant substantiative consideration. Until then, it's hearsay and gossip.
Am I the exception???

How to deal with difficult people ..............

This is a repost of yester-year, but it warrants reposting.
While I was still working, comes in the office mail a brochure advertising a seminar titled: How to Deal with Difficult People. The brochure listed 6 types of personalities that are readily identified in the work place (and elsewhere). Do you recognize any of these types?
1. The "Know-it-alls" - These are the one-ups, the arrogant with opinions on every issue. When called upon to clarify, they become nasty and defensive. "How could you be that stupid" is their motto.
2. The "Passives" - fence riders, they never let people know where they stand and shirk from commitment of any kind. They have no opinions and never offer ideas. "Just leave me out of it" is their motto.
3. The "Dictators" - rule by intimidation, demanding and brutally critical. "My way or the highway" is their motto.
4. The "Yes People" - slackers, they agree to everything, but rarely deliver. They cannot be trusted to follow through. "Sounds like a great idea to me" is their motto.
5. The "No People" - totally inflexible. They are quick to point out why something will not work and make it clear they are unwilling to try. "It's never going to change," is their motto.
6. The "Gripers" - Nothing is ever right with them. They prefer complaining to resolving issues. They thrive on office buzz and do whatever they can to keep the pot stirred. "It's everyone else's fault" is their motto.
These people descriptions are taken from the brochure. Dealing with them was to be encapsulated in a one day seminar offered for $99.00 per person. (Heck, I have a minor in psychology and we never covered this much ground in four years time!!) My supervisor laughed out loud when I told him I would like to sign on and asked if it would be covered in the budget. I took that to mean, "NO, we like it the way it is!!"

I love photo Friday, but I wish it did not begin to occupy the front page on Thursday. I understand the timing is different internationally, but it would be nice to put everything in sync so that the front page is dominated for just one day.
No offense intended.

I don't believe that some people even believe what they say ....

.... rather, I think they say what they say because they are aligned to a party that's as impossible to work with as they are. If they can't lead, they won't play in the same sandbox. They are content to throw mud pies.
Staunch alignment with any party is about the dumbest way to vote as any I can imagine. We bore witness to that in what occurred (or didn't occur) in the past eight-year administration. The phantom Osama is still on the loose. How's that for an eight-year record?

............ and his naysayers reside right here in his own country! They are asking, "What has he accomplished besides rhetoric?"
IMHO, he has accomplished many world missions of good will and has gained the respect of many other world leaders. He has NOT thrown the weight of military might, and genuinely seeks world peace. He is NOT arrogant and was humbled by this honorable recognition.
GO Obama!!
