Over Apologizing

[girlsmiley]

I don't feel like I have to put up with people. A lot of people (especially women, who conditioned to feel bad about saying no) are so scared of being seen as mean or selfish that they tolerate even the most obvious manipulation. The profuse apologies are often just a way to make people feel guilty. Fuck that shit.

Exactly.

Above the pay grade.

That was just an example and in that case, had I gone over his head, I would have been shown the door. I no longer work there.

I think you're missing the point here.

It's not your responsibility.

Is it your job to get involved in people's games and drama when they are fucking with you?

If the answer is no, don't worry about it.

I never said it was my responsibility. I was just trying to figure out why a person would do such a thing. I do realize that I can't fix/change other people but sometimes if I know what is motivating them, I can better deal with the situation. And again, it's not just one person. I have several people in my life who do this. Some only sporadically.

You asked the question and I answered.

Don't bother trying to figure out why people do the fucked up things they do.

Very wise words. We have a hard enough time trying to figure out why we do the fucked up things we do.

I got that but... I can't help being part cat. We're curious. I like to know what makes people tick.
