Corrective Action
Today I had a small issue with a superintendent. I won't go into details. But at this point the only thing that's been decided by his boss is that I need to read a copy of "How to Win Friends and Influence people."

I'm really surspised this is the first time we've heard this! Damn it Garb's, quit messing with your co-workers minds!
It was actually well meant criticism. He said i wasn't totally worthless or he wouldn't waste his time on me. But that this was something i really need to work on. A back handed compliment I suppose, but sill pretty depressing.
what did you do? sleep with his dog? steeal hias parking space? inquiring minds want to know!
That's what sucks about working in corporate america. One tiny incident and you're basically sent to sensistivity training. I would have told both of those guys where they can stick "How to Win Friends and Influence people."
So like, what was the mistake/problem you caused. I gotta know, it can't be THAT bad.
What?! Garb's has issues when it comes to influencing people and social interaction?! I don't believe it... I can't believe it.
Everything I've ever believed in has now evaporated. My world is collapsing in around me...
Simon, it's not really sensitivity training. It's just that I can be more effective if I don't piss lots of people off.
I know from experience that it’s tough to be “pleasant” ALL the time. Especially in an industry as frustrating as automotive and machine-tool design.
Sometimes you just need a day-off…
