I defined my working life and many jobs by the way I wouldn't stand for any nonsense and I'd walk rather than suffer it. I'm not an easy person to get on with because I demand high standards that I keep myself. INTJs are wont to do that. They set high standards of themselves and others. If you fall short professionally then after a few chances and no improvement your'e generally going to be toast!
A politician has resigned on principal yesterday citing the PMs and his cabinets propensity to, how can I put it nicely? Have their interests elsewhere than the people they are meant to represent. They are making a laughing stock of this country and they look like a bunch of total amateurs - more like children in a sweet shop than serious politicians. I don't suppose they see themselves as we see them. I'd send them to bed early with no supper that's how petulant the little buggers are.
Anyway, someone has stood up - they haven't forced a By-election which I think they should as it would show what the people think of her as an individual but also the Labour party's standing. Hey, she's going to be an independent. However, she completely exposed the Labour Party for what it is and in doing that, respect to her for her stand. Her constituents will be better served in some ways but the financial pain and the sleaze will not go away. I'm not sure what wil hapen - the Budget is in a few weeks and I imagine we will see what happens after that. We are all expecting that they will come for us for more money.
I recall the other times they have come for us, especially when I was a business owner. On one occasion my shares were destroyed by a Banking collapse that my shareholding company had to pick up a failed bank and lo and behold, my shares (which are still seriously damaged) now count in pennies rather than the many pounds that they were. At around the same time there was a bit of legislation aimed at disguised employment that was a sledgehammer to crack a nut - IR35 it was called. It affected my business and so I did what anyone else would do, I changed the business to suit my own circumstances, arranged financies and contracts accordingly and shut it down. So in the end, I'd rather not work my arse off for someone who waved their arms and did me harm. Covid legislation killed my business off a few years ago too. Lots of people made shed loads but not my business which having just been fed with a large lump sum of my savings to launch it and no chance of getting the advertising revenues back and no previous trading history, lost the lot!
In business I've nearly always decided to leave them to it rather than suffer fools. Back in the day I could pick a phone up and start with a company the next day if needed and so when I got fed up and sick to death of all the politics and back stabbing, I'd just leave and let them get on with it. So what if they fell flat on their faces, maybe they'd learn something, but I doubt it. Human nature is strange. Why pick a fight with me in your own company and make my life difficult when it was difficult enough working in these circumstances. Just leave and let them get on with it. Then give a wry smile as you knew they'd be up for hours and hours trying to rescue things.
More and more I'm just saying to people, "F off, do it yourself then" Even recently I'd been trying to alert someone to something and then they, out of the blue started getting all verbal about the situation that I'd alerted them to, trying to blame me so bang, cut them off, block them, mute them and forget them. F*** them and any of their ilk. I don't need that sort of nonsense in my life and I no longer suffer it.
Just do it, it feels great to shut these f*****s out of your life. Courage. Do It!
