“How does one avoid being an asshole?”

News:
1. Trecem pe romana
2. Exista o categorie de oameni la munca ce vor sa te enerveze pentru ca pe ei asta ii face fericiti. De dimineata am observat asta, iar acum ceva putina vreme Bob Sutton a scris o carte.

How To Avoid Being an Asshole
Do not make people feel oppressed, humiliated, de-energized, or belittled.
Do not mistreat people who are less powerful than you.

Si in general, mi-am adus aminte iarasi de ceva ce ar trebui sa aplic mai des:

IS IT TRUE?
IS IT KIND?
IS IT NECESSARY?

This is one I've lost and found.

O zi frumoasa tuturor!

p.s. mi s-a parut foarte tare cum face Bob Sutton identficarea unui asshole:
"...If you hear someone at a Starbucks order a 'decaf grande half-soy, half-low fat, iced vanilla, double-shot, gingerbread cappuccino, extra dry, light ice, with one Sweet-n’-Low and one NutraSweet,' you’re in the presence of an asshole. ..."
