the problem
a problem he realised a long
time ago is prevalent and persistent and
unwarranted it seems an obsession that people
have that they have to ask others what they think he or she ought to do that theyfor some odd reason have
to be told or assured what their mind is what they should do
whether position or status whether professional or personal they bear strictures and responsibilitiesobligations
that we know that we understand
when he went to dinner he didnt
ask his date or whoever he was eating with what he should order
perhaps simplisticyes
however
one knows what theyre supposed to do Do it Dont ask permission or questions in order to perform your assigned designated responsibilities
too often hed been asked What do you think?
blandlynearly blithely he
responded I know you know what youre supposed
to do Dont ask me Im not flattered you have
do what you know youre supposed
to do
precedent exists
if someone wants to change the rules
you better damnwell ask why ask them their reasons
if their reasons arent good enoughthey dont convince you call them out
if need be go over their heads
challenge their authority
hed been doing it since he was a
boy
he was called cantankerous
how
could he not wear that as a stripe of honour
he was cantankerous
Thank you hed reply
