I am hated by a hell of a lot of people
I have recently had to take some very unpopular but necessary actions outside of DU. Doing the right thing apparently does not lead to popularity. Due to confidentiality agreements, I can't elaborate.

I haven't pissed anyone here off recently too, have I?

1. Your lack of specificity pisses me off.
Naw, just kidding. Hope everything clears up in a good way.

2. This post is pretty generic, brad.
Ha! See what I did there?

Haven't pissed me off, at least.

3. There's a method to my madness
I don't really want to get fired.

6. If madness has a method...
is it really madness?

See what I did there? Yeah, I'm totally clueless too.

18. Doing the right thing is never a popular thing to do.
It has came back to bite me too many times to count. Spike Lee should have to do a movie showing the pay back people face for doing the right thing.

That confidentiality thing is a pain in the behind. I know about that also. Don't get fired.

10. My dear Generic Brad...
It's tough when you have to do the right thing, and it turns out to be very unpopular.

You have never, nor will you ever, piss me off...

:hug:

14. I hate GD in general, if that's what you mean
Well, not hate....I'm terrified of it. If I weren't so addicted to DU, I'd pull a Sarah.

23. Of course. Thank you.
A senior moment I suppose but these days I try not to think to much about those like Palin and her right wing nut job pals.

Happy thoughts, happy thoughts, that's what I keep telling myself. :rofl:

16. Look at it in a different light
Perhaps this is just a god given talent you have. Accept it as a gift.

20. Who cares about popularity? Be yourself.
Soap operas and mob mentalities are for wankers anyway...

27. Same here
But among relatives, employees, and co-workers I am a pariah. If people would make their judgements of people based on facts instead of habits, beliefs, or loyalties, I would be looked at a lot more objectively. Sigh.
