Training colleagues at your workplace

There is many things NTs do that make me say to myself silently ‘’Why? Why do I have to put up with this?’’ I managed to develop sort of solutions to some. It’s hard to say if they finally get it, but I consider it a win if they stop doing it. My solutions usually take form of a joke-comment-statement.

One of those things is saying ‘’Sorry’’ all the time, especially when they want to pass and you would expect ‘’Excuse me’’, or ‘’Excuse me, may I pass?’’.

I say to that: ‘’Why? What have you done? Have you got a guilty conscience? Because if you do, I am not really authorised to give you absolution and you should find yourself a priest. But if you don’t, you don’t want to be a sorry person’’. I make short breaks after every sentence as if to give them a chance to interject. They never do, and when I finish, I am rewarded with their regular response The Furious Blinking Response.

Next time it happens I say: ‘’Why? Did you do it again?’’. That is the only time when regular response does not happen, they tend to blush instead and run. 3rd time rarely happen, after all they capable of learning.

Just to add some humour, we need that a lot, don't we?
