Pretty much this nowadays. Even then too much paperwork and hassle, i'm just tryna go home.Ain't fighting anyone unless it's self defense.
Other people can enjoy feeling like "real ones" while they're sitting in a jail cell though.
Even in self defense if you hit someone and they bust their head open and get seriously hurt, you're gonna have some explaining to do. Best to avoid situations where that can happen whenever possible.
Probably not unless they hurt another white man.Unless you are a white man in Florida?
Every job I've had I had to check a supervisor within the first couple months of working with them. Never had the problem afterwards.Sometimes you need to do that in a work related setting and let them know you’re not the one, because if you let them get away with it once, they’ll keep it up.
Had an old manager try talking to me in a funny manner in front of a few coworkers, pretty much trying to embarrass me and make me look dumb. I just let him know in front of everyone that I don’t think I’m above criticism by any means, but if there’s an issue, come at me correctly, talk to me one on one, and don’t try and show me up in front of coworkers. He never did it again, but he would constantly come at people I worked with in such an professional manner.
Like you work with these people 40 plus hours a week, 5 days a week or so. You gotta set those boundaries from the jump that you’re going to tolerate being talked to in a disrespectful manner. Especially at this point in my life. I got a decent amount saved up and make good money off my side stuff, that I’ll quit over a disrespectful higher up if talking to them 1 on 1 or going the HR route doesn’t yield results.
Wise words. Definitely stuff l think about. People are very immature and petty.Something you gotta realize too is there’s so many people who will provoke, run their mouths and antagonize a situation. You beat their ***, they’re calling the cops and trying to press charges over something they were the aggressor in.
There’s some people, if you beat their *** even if they deserved it. They’re not taking that L gracefully, and are going to try and catch you slipping at a later point when they have other people with them or when you’re with your family. There’s some who like to start **** but can’t fight but are ready to pull the strap out.
There’s nothing soft about walking away and getting yourself out of any situation you think has the potential to go sideways quick. You got too much going for you to have it all ruined by someone who either doesn’t have anything going for themselves, or even someone who doesn’t give a damn about anything.

Books?Reading certain material can help with that.
Interpersonal skills need to be considered more when putting people in positions of management.That’s how it is. What’s crazy is some of them take you standing up for yourself as disrespect to them. I got that vibe a lot, especially when I was younger.
What’s crazy is some of these supervisors need to learn how to read the room. Especially in todays work climate. So many people are quitting and just getting fed up to where a lot of stuff which employees would tolerate in the past isn’t going to fly anymore. Once I started making decent money off the stuff I do on the side and managed to get a decent amount in my savings. My tolerance level toward any workplace bs became 0. It was already low before that as is lol.
If you're asking for recommendations on that topic l only have a few, but plenty on my to do list. I've read the 4 agreements and the subtle art of not giving a f, both are pretty decent reads.Books?
Sadly a lot of psychopathic/sociopathic traits are seen as 'strong' managerial skills.Interpersonal skills need to be considered more when putting people in positions of management.
Yeah recommendation books on the topic.. Thanks..If you're asking for recommendations on that topic l only have a few, but plenty on my to do list. I've read the 4 agreements and the subtle art of not giving a f, both are pretty decent reads.

Most things can be avoided. If you are truly in tune with yourself, you can shrug/laugh off many things and not feel the need to entertain the foolishness or "prove yourself". Reading certain material can help with that.
Hip hop cats should be nominated for academy awards in acting. Alot of fraudulent dudes playing dress up.Just a thought I've had for a minute.
I've come across people who value their respect more than anything.
Also, T.I.'s lyric "I don't know what you do for your respect, but I'mma die for mine" is cited a lot in the hood.
