David's Corner

I am thankful for good health, my mother and family, happiness and my friends. I am especially thankful for the patient staff at the Anixter Center and my mentor/editor for their compassionate support of this blog and all of my services that I'm proud to do. What are you  thankful for? Have an awesome holiday!   

Sometimes the Anixter Center cafeteria sounds like a bunch of gossipers wasting staff time to speak for them to their neighbor about their problems. This could turn off some people from eating in the cafeteria. This form of bickering is hideous, disgusting and ignorant-- it turns my stomach! If you bicker, people lose  interest in having a relationship with you because you  are boring and negative. Bickerers don't like themselves. Try to be patient and positive with bickerers. They need our compassion. Suggest other topics, change the subject, offer a break. These are my ideas. How do you deal with bickering?

What are the n ice ways to say I don’t want to hear it...    What do you not understand? I get turned off because when my peers put each other down like this is the end of the world, it makes me n ot want to be around you—I feel like that. How about you?
