| LindaH | (reply to Lahdee) posted 14-Apr-2002 11:45am I like to trick people who assume too much. Do stuff that makes them reconfirm their suspicions or assumptions, and then let them know the truth. Then they feel like a total fool. |
| Lahdee | (reply to LindaH) posted 14-Apr-2002 1:14pm I have my hobbies in my profile say Avincela, then you read avincela's profile and it has single not looking |

| kaleb777 | (reply to mandy) posted 14-Apr-2002 8:25pm Ever watch TV and feel like everyone you see is a fudgewit? |
| mandy | (reply to kaleb777) posted 14-Apr-2002 11:23pm TV? Hell...walk down the street much!? Luckily, I've been saved from regular TV. and the ads.....fast forward. |

| grmbrand | posted 15-Apr-2002 9:12am Un-observant people. Conversely, I appreciate people who try to be aware of the world around them, in both literal and figurative senses. |
| icurok | posted 15-Apr-2002 12:20pm "Those who perpetuate their relationship by systematically destroying the self esteem of their partner - Those" people drive me crazy. |
| Biggles | (reply to kaleb777) posted 15-Apr-2002 12:54pm Only if they give you a laxative....... Sorry. That was *bad*! |

| spidertea | posted 15-Apr-2002 5:08pm Unreliable |
| kaleb777 | (reply to mandy) posted 15-Apr-2002 6:08pm Yeah true. I catch myself asking other people (in my head) "What the fudge are you thinking?" |
| kaleb777 | (reply to Biggles) posted 15-Apr-2002 6:09pm I thought it was cute. |
| Oscar | (reply to LindaH) posted 15-Apr-2002 7:30pm argh! |
| LindaH | (reply to kaleb777) posted 15-Apr-2002 7:46pm What do they do that makes you think that? |
| The_Frog | (reply to teatree) posted 15-Apr-2002 9:01pm hey your welcome buddy |
| mandy | (reply to kaleb777) posted 15-Apr-2002 10:25pm One day you'll say it out loud..... *snickers* |
| Biggles | (reply to kaleb777) posted 16-Apr-2002 1:16pm Ah, but you should have seen how long it took me to remember what a laxative is called! |
| kaleb777 | (reply to LindaH) posted 16-Apr-2002 4:56pm I dunno, like if they're doing something stupid or being an idiot but thinking they're expressing their individuality etc. |
| kaleb777 | (reply to mandy) posted 16-Apr-2002 4:59pm I have |
| Gamera | posted 16-Apr-2002 6:10pm Some ... |
| Gamera | (reply to kaleb777) posted 16-Apr-2002 6:15pm I wonder if those people in high positions are doing a better job in those positions than people who test higher would do, though? |
| LindaH | (reply to kaleb777) posted 16-Apr-2002 6:27pm Oh, like what certain types of teens/early 20's like to do? |
| kaleb777 | (reply to Gamera) posted 17-Apr-2002 3:29pm I really don't think they can. I mean it's usually the subordinates that fix things after they go wrong. |
| kaleb777 | (reply to LindaH) posted 17-Apr-2002 3:30pm No any people. |
| LindaH | posted 17-Apr-2002 3:53pm When you say people being stupid/idiotic but thinking they are expressing individuality, I think of younger people who talk in rude slang, wear strange clothes, and have a chip on their shoulder about it. I can't imagine anyone over 24 doing that. |
| Gamera | (reply to kaleb777) posted 17-Apr-2002 7:56pm Sure, I can see that, but on the same token, a steel worker might fix things that go wrong in building a skyscraper, but may not be qualified to be in charge of the project. |
| kaleb777 | (reply to Gamera) posted 19-Apr-2002 10:28am True, but on such a large project, there would be many consultants from all levels advising the person in charge of the project. On a smaller scale, like in an office situation, many people in charge have no experience on the floor and got their position with a degree paid for by mum and dad at a university where academic entry is not as important as the fees and donations made by parents. Take Al Gore's university history for instance. |
| Gamera | (reply to kaleb777) posted 20-Apr-2002 1:57am I'm not about to suggest that everyone - nor even most people - in positions of authority have the skills and abilities, nor necessarily even the "right" to that authority. I was merely trying to suggest that perhaps people with lower IQ scores, or less skill in particular areas, might still have more skill or ability in the fine art of project or personnel management. They might not, too. I just don't believe the two are as closely linked as your original comment seemed to imply. |
| kaleb777 | (reply to Gamera) posted 20-Apr-2002 11:30am Are you saying that intelligence and the ability to manage people well don't go hand in hand? |
| Gamera | (reply to kaleb777) posted 21-Apr-2002 3:31am I'm saying that intelligence, particularly as measured by standardized tests, may be one part of a combination of crucial traits which may also include, for instance, intuition, creativity, courage, and ingenuity- just to name a few obvious ones- and that a person who scores higher- even quite markedly higher - on a standardized intelligence test may still lack many of the *other* necessary skills to manage well. They may be quite good specialists, perhaps even the best, and it might *also* be that their superior intelligence may be insufficient for the task of management, leaving that task for someone with a better balance of the necessary traits. This is not some radical new quack theory, of course. This concept of the balanced work force- dividing various types of skills into various types of roles is about as old as social structures themselves. |
| kaleb777 | (reply to Gamera) posted 21-Apr-2002 4:33am People criticize standardize intelligence tests, but people who perform poorly on these testes are usually thick as pig crap. Courage with no intelligence is a good way to get killed, or make a stupid decision. In my personal experience, too many people with *other* skills are promoted. It's usually those who can suck ass the best but are stupid enough not to be a threat to upper management that are promoted. As long as other managers protect each other when they screw up they can get away with enormous screw ups while still keeping their positions. |
