Quoting: GradientI don't know. We all play different roles depending on who we're interacting with. Maybe you should look at your own behavior when you're encountering an unreal person. Perhaps you could force the other person to play a different role? "Buy the ticket, take the ride." |

Brainsdonthurtabit User ID: 4356 United States 06/04/2011 12:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Throwing out a Friday topic..... Quoting: GradientWhy is it that it seems everyone these days is always someone else? It seems that there is an underlying motive or personality that always rears in the times when doors are finally being opened. Are the days of the handshake deal really gone? If not, where are these people that mean what they say and say what they mean? Trust, to humanities detriment, has become a multifaceted term that at one time meant something. Something that was attached to a length of time. These days, it's 'trust while convenient'. Don't hand out something whole, unless you are ready to get it back in jagged pieces, tied to mendacious reasoning. "Let's make a deal", "I'll pay you back", "I mean what I say" Why is this getting so bad? People used to feel confident in their future. We do not anymore, and for the first time in a long time that includes the rich. Romney has a Swiss bank account and you have a double-wide. The American Dream! Vote for You Dummy! |

That was the last time I trusted anyone in business dealings I should say.... But it was by the shaking of the hand, looking in the eyes and meaning what we say. I delivered and when it came time for the payday.....well you know the rest of the story... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1410813 Canada 06/04/2011 12:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The human race is on severe decline morally, physically, spiritually. Thing seem to go faster toward something that will change us drastically on every level or destroy us to restart another species that will be more fit. Just look at the dinosaurs it look like someone start playing with lifeforms and figured that the dinosaurs were not fit enough so he destroy the work and start again with another life form that evolved in humans. And my feeling is that someone is ready to destroy the new life form seeing it is not behaving the way he like. What would the new specie would be remain in that someone idea. |
