Don't you just hate it when...
Once Someone Agrees With You And Acknowledges Their Mistake, That's Your Cue To Shut Up
This one makes me rage sometimes. So there you are, having made some sort of mistake.
Hypothetically, let's pretend you forgot to put your mask on before going into Walmart. (This isn't about masks; don't make it about masks, just using it as an example).
"Sir, you need to have a mask on." (Acceptable)
"Why yes, here it is, I'm so sorry I forgot. You're right." (Put on the mask)
We are officially done here.
"Well, you see, there's a pandemic going on....." (Wrong. The conversation is over.)
"Yeah, you're right I'm sorry man." (Acknowledged twice now. The problem corrected! We are done here.)
"When you don't have a mask on you can infect other people...." (Why the hell are you still talking?!)
Just assume it's the only song he knows and get away from him!
Agree! Just had a conversation with my boss about this very topic. He asked if I was going to respond to a feisty (agressive?) client who ended an obnoxiously long message with ‘I’m not doing that, you figure it out’. I said, no point, we’re done here. He proceeded to respond. They continued in a totally unnecessary pissing match for three more email exchanges. Let it die when it’s over people!
Hi there. Some people won't rest until they have the last word. Lol
