Life is too short to deal with Asshats.
Asshats.
I’m pretty sure you know one. I’m even pretty sure you’ve
been one.
A-hole.
Ever met one who is described as selfish and is chronically
inconsiderate? How did you handle the
A-hole? Just in case you’ve misplaced your Tips for Dealing with Asshats
notepad I’ll offer some tidbits below:
1. Selfishness: Being selfish isn’t always a negative. After
all, you do need to focus on your goals and take care of yourself. But there
are those who are consistently inconsiderate of other people’s feelings and
those who lack compassion. These are the Narcissistic A-holes. Their mantra is
“me, me, me, me” and they aren’t switching tunes any time soon. You can try
calling them on their behavior in hopes it will dull the egocentric selfish
shine, but chances are you will end up with a matte finish of self-seeking
narcissism.
2. Bulldozing: Asshats can be known for their bullying of
others when they don’t get their own way. This type of A-hole is quick to
criticize and shrugs off cooperative communication. There is nothing you can do
to change them, but you will feel better if you stand up to them and disregard
their intimidating comments.
3. Slothism: This lazy Asshat is a do nothing and will do
nothing. Unmotivated, uncommitted, unwilling and unmoved. They don’t care and
probably never will unless they are shown some tough love. This languid A-hole
is late to work, contributes nothing and relies on others to pick up the slack.
To deal with this type of Asshat document everything, call them on it and
report them (at work).
Asshats present as both genders, races and socioeconomic
classes. They are everywhere. They make the lives of those around them
intolerable.
If you can’t manage them – leave them.
Life is far too short.
