Is it just how come across on this forum or are you not liked much in general and in particular at work? -
You've referred to mental battles, crushing people, showing them who is boss and getting them working for you, being the leader amongst other things.Originally posted by aussielong View PostNot once have I said "control". Influence fella. Big difference.
I've summed that up as ' an illusion of control', as in you like to convince yourself that you're in control of your environment.
Nothing to do with influence really. More to do with you having a rather strange and one dimensional view of how people interact.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment

Control? You really have been bullied haven't you. I'm not your bully, I'm your leader.
And if you screw up just "this" much, you'll be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog sh!t out of Hong Kong!
