I always find it funny (funny is not the right word but it will do) that people begin to tell lies or stretch the truth in self-defense, even if there is nothing to defend. It's almost like an automatic reaction for some people to react in that way. Unfortunately, that recently happened to me and I had to set things straight. I went to the person in a completely appropriate and non-defensive manner to discuss this and let them know that I felt it was out of line and uncalled for to act in that way, I got no response. I can't help but laugh at myself, once again, having to be the bigger person. Why can't we all be the proverbial bigger person? Immaturity is the only answer I have for that question...
What do you think?

About Me
- Erin
- My name is Erin and I am originally from Atlanta, GA and I somehow found myself in Seattle, Washington. It wasn’t part of the plan but hell what’s the point of a plan? Life, after all, is about the journey and the adventures you have along the way. One of the best decisions I ever made was coming out to the Pacific NW, 5+ years down, and many more to go…

Does this have anything to do with the workplace?
No, it actually doesn't :)
Immaturity/insecurity. That's about the only explanation there is...
Makes complete sense, however I'm confused as how no response = lies or stretching truth... maybe they just didn't have the same view and didn't want to hash it out? Hard to say, really. Everyone does things for different reasons. I know I just drop things if I feel that there's no way other than to agree to disagree and I don't feel like breaking a 40 over the crub and cutting a bitch. Otherwise you know I go for blood. :-)
