Therapy

[IKnowALittle]

So, I've only been home a couple of days. Was walking around downtown and ran into an "acquaintance" and went for a coffee.
We were talkin', I'm not the sensitive type, and he suggested that I take this course.
Basically, it's a "how not to be an a$$hole" course ... so I'm signed up for thirteen weeks.
Hope it helps.

It will probably just give you a headache, and maybe raise your blood pressure.

Hey, I need one of those courses!

Took it.........friends say it didn't help.......:biggrin:

Dude, if it's working for you, why change?

Some say it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission....

Bah, people need to like you for you. I'm a huge a**hole, I figure it's up to other people who choose to associate with me to do what they need to do to bring out the nice guy side, or grow thick skin and deal with it.

I do, however, go to therapy, twice a month (or an additional twice a week if you count guitar and drum lessons) to keep from wrapping my hands around stupid people's necks, lol.

Probably not a bad idea.. Even if you're not an @$$hole, everybody could benefit from at least one nicer guy in the world.

I took one of those - they used me as a visual aid through the course.

If it ain't court ordered I ain't goin!

I went to what my company referred to as "charm school" about 5 years ago. It seemed to help (for a while )

Probably should have labeled it "self-improvement".
It's a different world now than what I grew up with.
The general aggression is unfathomable to me.
Not to be an "old f@ck", but I attribute most of it to "social media".

No matter, based on tonite's evidence, I need some work.
At the end of the day it's just perspective.
