See also: modern music, modern movies, and EVE as regards fitting, fleet compositions, "doctrinal warfare". ;-) "No we can't try something new, if it fails we'll be publicly humiliated on our KB!!! *rage-rage-emorage*"<br /><br />Also proven psychological fact that yes, people do like following a narcissistic asshat who's way out of his league and doesn't know it, but sure talks like he's right at home... Well, they love it til he fails, throws an emoragefit, and because he's sure of HIS abilities, starts blaming everyone else even remotely around him for his failings...<br />Yes, that's surely a pleasant person to work for. Only not. Trust me, I have ages (virtually my entire 33-year lifetime) living with, dealing with, and working for, narcissistic fucksticks. They may succeed from time to time, but realize that that is far more to do with "stopped clock right twice a day" than any actual knowledge, skill, or ability on their part. :-/Hong WeiLohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14702284760088727892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4602866399420215362.post-19914239003531428122012-02-24T09:39:13.190-05:002012-02-24T09:39:13.190-05:00You might want to have a loot at this:
