THE LAST CAB RIDE

THE LAST CAB RIDE

I arrived at the address and honked the horn. After waiting a few minutes I honked again.

I could hear something being dragged across the floor. After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her…

PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR

PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR

Passive Aggressive behaviour can be described as a pattern of behaviour where negative feelings such as anger, frustration and hostility are expressed indirectly instead of being openly addressed. Passive aggression is also known as negativistic personality disorder. However, the Diagnostic Statistical Manual no longer uses this label. This type of behaviour is not a mental health condition in itself but is commonly practised by people who have particular mental health conditions such as narcissistic personality disorder, anxiety disorders, and ADHD….

SELF CARE or SELF-SACRIFICE

SELF CARE or SELF-SACRIFICE

How many of us think that putting yourself first is a little self-centred and selfish?  Raise your hand if you put everyone else’s needs before your own. If so, you’ve got to STOP. Think about yourself for a change.  It’s not selfish. It’s absolutely necessary. There’s truth in the saying that you can’t pour from an empty jug. ‘Self-care is the delicate balance between selfishness and self-sacrifice.‘ Elayna Fernandez You may upset some people when you start to prioritize yourself…

NARCISSISTS DON’T LIKE TO SEE YOU HAPPY

NARCISSISTS DON’T LIKE TO SEE YOU HAPPY

Narcissists don’t like to see you happy unless they are the cause of you having such a great time so you can bet your bottom dollar, if you’re having a ball, they’ll do all in their power to change that. Maybe it’s a holiday you’ve been planning for some time and the narcissist knows just how much you’ve been looking forward to it. Maybe it’s a reunion with some friends, a family get together or a special birthday party. Whatever…

Are Some Bosses and / or Employers Bullying or Manipulating People to Come To Work When They Can Quite Easily and Efficiently Work From Home During The COVID-19 Pandemic?

The world is not short of managers. It’s short of leaders. (Bob Townsend) The world is in crisis and yet I’m hearing that some bosses and employers are bullying, manipulating and guilt tripping people to come to their place of work when they can do their job quite efficiently and competently from their homes.  The advice here in the UK is that people MUST work from home where it is possible to do so.  Staying home saves lives.  Unnecessary contact…

The new supply in his…
