"Haffo my own experiences with what? Job interviews?"

Not just any job interview. But a job interview where you felt pretty confident about yourself and then nothing...

Share your experience with exactly this kind of situations.

"I'm just saying that if you have a negative attitude with whatever it is you attempt to get or do in your life you're not going to get very far."

The creator of negative attitude is not me. It's stupid system. And I'm not going to be pussy whipped like person just to get that job. If any gonna be with me, is the job place that shares what I think, not how I look.

"I interview people all the time at my work and someone like P with a positive and a "can do" attitude, someone with a bit of spunk, I can tell you goes a hell of a lot further than someone who just sits there and gives you the answers they know (or at least think) you want to hear."

BS. Only a person with right skillz and right person behind to support them will get the job. Not smartarses like P-Angel.

Sweet-P,

The only reason why we are still tolerating each other here is because we are biased. You see, this is the Pisces board and it means we share something in common. Our birthdates. Or lets say our birthdates that fall under certain interval of year. This makes us biased. Perhaps if our birthdates would fall under sign of Virgo, Virgo's would be more tolerant to us than other signs.

We are biased, we all are biased.

For example, if you didn't know my sign, you would definetly not tolerate this much I would say. So this is my point, we simply can't freely argue our points without hurting each other and make them feel unhappy towards us. This is how it usually happens.


Now you asked what's wrong with confident approach in a job interview.

The wrong part is this: It's unrealistic. It does not have a reliable grounds. You just acting like artist in front of them and that's enough for them to think that you are simply a clown. They will not respect such a person.


"And it's not about being pussy whipped either as you put it. P went into that interview with no expectations but came out feeling that she did a good job. Now what the hell is wrong with that?"

I didn't say this to her behavior. I was saying this to my negativity. Most people are negative, and they try to hide this part during job interview. Which means they don't reflect their true inner during the job interview and that's exactly what I call pussy whipped like personality. They try to show false outlet to please the interviewer. I would definetly not buy that. Apparetnly most interviewers don't but it too.

"Nevermind MY experiences with this type of situation from the way you are talking I would rather hear about YOURS."

Simple. I'm negative *until* they call me and call to the job. This way I do not feel disappointed. Because internally there is nothing to expect.

"Haffo you can talk about your opinions freely here, I am not arguing with you we clearly have different POS about this subject, besides healthy debate is good."

Trust me, the reason why you say that this is simply a debate, is because you are biased.

"I am always open to hearing someone else's view on things."

I hope so. At least I'm not so much open for any debate, despite the fact that I always loathe about how open am I.

P-Angel,

Being a fighting type is a good quality. Not giving up etc. Yes, I'm a fighting person as well. Maybe even more fighting person than most of us here. Who knows...

But lately I've realised that a line between fighting and stupidity can be blurr. You see, saying that "I will find that right job" and going for it could be quite a stupid behavior in the long run. But taking the fact that stupid people like the kind of interviewer you met is just another stone to push is a part of normal job finding process is much more ralistic than being a "hero".

Yeah hero can be looking kool and most people can like you for this, but in a long run you will become stressed under the "obligation" the people placed over you and make yourself unhappy. So I say again, the line between fighting and stupidity can be blurr. And people who encourage oters to be more "hero" are contributing to their unhappiness in the future. It's just another stupid emotional manipulation.

"Just because I don't hate them doesn't mean that I will allow them back in my life.......there is a difference."

So you would tell them hello but never keep things further. Grat. That's what I wanted to hear.

Ok. Let's move further. Now. When I came here first, we had some sort of disagreement, and more than just a disagreement. At the end of this disagreement you mostly chosen to ignore me.

Now if we combine those two situations, you are still talking to me as if nothing happened while you don't do the same with your ex'es.

You're biased Sweet-P. And that's my point.

Before you started to lurking on this board, you've chosen to ignore most of my posts. Most probably when you started lurking and reading my posts, you have seen that I'm not that bad person and more importantly, the forum has grown into group conscience such a Pisces group, Virgo group, Aqua group which is the source of being biased.

And I also don't think that tolerance shown on these boards is same with the tolerance is shown to your boyfriends. At any time, you can simply ignore my posts whenever you find them intolerable and that's all (which is by the way was sufficient enough to be intolerable since you started to ignore my posts). According to common sense, most of the conversations of that time did end even on lower amounts intolerance which is also pretty much indicative of seriousness of disagreement.

We are all biased Sweet-P.
