I can't resist saying this, sorry. :-) And if it's already been brought up,
forgive me, because I'm on the digest.
Someone on the list said:
"I used to find a lot more people disagreeable and hard to work with than I
do now, something I attribute to my growing up, not the general nicening
<g> of the population."
And I reply--I used to be a doormat and let people walk all over me,
smiling all the way. No one was difficult to deal with, because I said yes
all the time. Now I've learned to say no and push back. Does that make me
difficult to work with?
