Being too nice to people who clearly don't deserve it and allowing people to call me things that they are bigger ones themselves, and not telling them.
Given your current predicament you want to hope your constipation holds up while you are in public....if it doesn’t you are in real danger of following through. Don’t wear your tennis whites if you go out.
Being too nice to people who clearly don't deserve it and allowing people to call me things that they are bigger ones themselves, and not telling them.
Is that your way of saying "sarcasm"?
No mate, as my Mrs says, I give them too much latitude till they go one step to far, then I want to kill them.
Impatience with arseholes or at least people I think are arseholes very bad poker face
Judgemental
My wife told me I argue too much, I told her I don't
Basically, this. Minus the wife bit 🤣
I'm pretty sure I'll never get to senior exec level in my career despite being bloody good at it simply because I'm not diplomatic enough. I've got better at it over the years, but I still can't hide my contempt for liars and lazy bastards. I also swear far far too much (always have done). Finally, I often wait ages to make a decision rather than going on instinct... only to be be proved later that my first instinct was correct.

Do you know what, I'm as diplomatic as they come and very emotionally intelligent but this isn't about good character traits!
Problem with both of those things is the sheer volume of chancers, general arseholes and lazy obnoxious pricks in my game those 2 qualities are easily seen as weakness which then brings out the worst in me. I always think if I have given someone a chance and been pleasant, fair, honest and well mannered to them I deserve the same in return and when I dont get it I can then climb up on a high horse and not feel bad when fucks start to get lobbed around
Genuinely to step into management you have to not care about the actual job or the people doing it but make a show of making them think you care and as much as I actively dislike my colleagues on a purely professional level I would care pastorally for them too much

Spot on. I care too much in both ways - don't like seeing good people get shafted, don't like seeing chances getting away with it. Project & Programme Management is generally OK - provided I'm working with properly defined objectives and resources (I can distance myself from the people involved). In actual day to day management roles, I feel too close to the people and end up too matey, or wanting to bang someone out too often
Mine is I hate any form of confrontation with anyone, even when I am in the right. Its probably some kind of anxiety but would love to be able to beat it.

Giving advice when it's not wanted, because I know better.
And @oohaahmortimer can you get your IBS sorted or is it Diverticulitis ?
As you spend more time on the throne than Queen Liz.
