And if you work somewhere where shitty people are never fired, it’s probably a good time to find another job. Unless, you know, you’re a shitty person and want job security.
It’s the complaining about it–asserting your correctness to everyone around you–that makes someone the asshole.
Everyone always thinks they’re right. If you didn’t think you were right to act a certain way, you would do something different! Acknowledging afterwards that you were wrong and made a mistake is what makes someone tolerable.
I don’t know about that. I certainly think I’m right when I do something, but I have a healthy dose of imposter syndrome, so I tend to do a lot of testing before hand, and when something goes wrong I assume it’s my fault until I can prove otherwise.
It always seems strange to me when people need to be proven wrong. Usually when I’m wrong, I’m the person who figures it out, because I always assume problems are my fault.
The weird thing is, this leads to an enormous amount of trust in me by others, which I find exceedingly uncomfortable.
It’s the “I’m always right” part that guarantees it
I work with a bunch of fucking idiots who regularly fuck stuff up. But I’m also a fucking idiot constantly fucking Up so I belong
