I had forgotten how much I can learn from jerks and their ilk. It reframes the experience for me to remember that. I find Paul’s brief, non-jerky missives to be useful distractions in my day.
Cheers,

    Thanks again for reading Idea Sandbox and for linking to my site… Yah. Jerks are tough. But a fact of life. So you gotta learn how to deal with them… Take care! – Paul

    Believe me, I know from jerks – I worked for lawyers for 15 years. One of the things I learned is that the jerk many times has a valid point or good idea that no one pays attention to because of the jerk’s personality and way of presenting it. Once again, writing down ideas – including those presented by others – can be useful because it takes away the emotional reaction and allows one to look at them objectively.
