Pushing back!

When I was having frowns and frustration about the job (the flight attendant one) and Boss wasn't around anymore, there were no hankerchiefs for me to turn to.

I went to him.

And he always said, "I don't understand how you can give me all this shit but you just don't know how to dish them all back at JL!"

"Yell at me and scold me if it makes you feel better"

"You can be such a bitch with me but with JL you just take it???"


He didn't understand that with JL, it's a waste of time and it's a waste of breath. I would only get more frustrated.

I used to spend half hour, walk away from my lobby, go sit down where he is and almost crystalise. But more often, I did it in the comfort of Boss' Car Park Office Conference Room with Boss' hankerchief that ends up being with Eisen for a couple of days.

I wasn't pushing back with JL. With him, I did a lot of praying. And then I realise, I really need to learn how to push back. And it wasn't until he pointed it out to me that I realise, I am pushing back. But with the wrong people.

Go play push with the right people. You might even enjoy it.
