I'm the same all the way. It's not arrogant I'm just not willing to settle or take direction from toxic people or people I'm clearly smarter than. I operate on logic and if I see that's not how you operate, I'm out cuz it's just going to be endless headaches.All my sisters, my cousins and my kids mother constantly call me arrogant. And I tell them all the time, I'm not purposely trying to be. I just have a hard time being subordinate to people who dont dedicate themselves to the same thing they are asking you to.
I have a natural ability to read people, and I have an inability to be fake if not for a purpose I respect. It always go back to respect for me, and my sisters always tell me that's where my arrogance lies. The current job I have, I was interviewed by two guys that would consider themselves alpha dogs.
They were asking question based on my ability to do the job. They were trying to find people with the ability to do the job, they werent using their positions to fulfill a sense of superiority. Some of these interviews are like mean girls..like, huh, ion think u can hang wit our clique.
Yea, but do I actually have the aptitude to do what's required?
I to have a gripe with people expecting me to do something they wouldn't do. First rule of being a good leader, 'dont ask of others what you yourself wouldn't do'. To me THAT is the arrogance. And you can take that arrogance and shove it up your hooha cuz again, lifes goes by too fast.
