Again a bit of a gap between blogs. Lot of interesting experiences in the past few months/years. I have learnt quite a bit from my experience with real estate folks, sales folks, many different type of colleagues, clients and recruiters.
One thing which stood out was how you behave with the chaps around you and how are you perceived by them.
I came across a couple of folks who thought their knowledge on a small subject in a large universe made them master of the universe. They somehow felt they could command respect, when that didn't help they decided to be mean and nasty to carry their fake sense of entitlement. Someone once said "you can judge a lot about a person's character by the way he/she treats his/her subordinates, not superiors mind you"
Unfortunately the colleagues were compliant and submissive to such behaviour, primarily because of the dependence that this select group had created. It got me thinking if that was really the way of the world. Was a scary thought. Anyways eventually things improved and that shadow has passed. But somewhere that fear still lurks, bidding it's time.
