Admitting you’re wrong is seen as just as weak, and I believe it to be our biggest obstacle in resolving differences.
…or don’t know something. Tis the season for interviews at my work and the number of confidently incorrect answers I’ve heard the last 2 weeks is mind numbing. They say all the right buzz words (so many buzz words), but its like everybody is bullshitting to get ahead.
I don’t blame them with the state of the job market either, corporations made this mess, but damn shits going to collapse if there is no viable path for people to get work other than lying their asses off.
I was just remarking on that last point. A YouTuber I watch who runs a farm amongst other things stabbed herself in the hand on accident and essentially paralyzed it for a period of time. But she was so dead set on not asking even her partner for help on the farm because of some weird sense of pride or something. It was actually really sad to see someone repeat over and over to internet strangers that she’s not a quitter. Seems to be doing much better but I feel bad for folks who have this type of outlook. Something I’ve seen from a lot of content creators online unfortunately.
Similar to the Fetish of Leadership.
Everyone has to be a leader in the Western workplace. This dilutes the ability to call leaders to account.
funny enough many of the same people on the “individualism” train are super keen on having others conform conform conform…to thier arbitrary and or religious based standards of course.
