I don’t know whether that would help as much as you think it will. I just got out of the military, and there are definitely certain people who started out taking a lot of shit from people just like you did at that rank, but their motivation to rank up was because they couldn’t wait to become the people giving people shit.
Hardest part about being a leader is being better than the shit leadership you had
If the leadership you had was shitty shouldn't the easy part be being better than them?
Why would being a good leader be easy?
Nah, common decency isn't that hard, it just requires not wanting to be a leader.
I've been working in customer support for three years and I absolutely despise people in that job that don't try their best to help. This is their job, and if it's so bad they can't be assed to do it right they should work at another place. Sure, many customers are clueless assholes. But if I come up to them with all the respect and try to lay down my issue I don't want to get treated like shit, no matter how hard their day was.
If anything, my experience in this job made me less tolerant towards incompetent or disrespectful people.
We'd put them into cust-supp after they've done their mandatory gap-year service. Waiting tables or trying to hear bubba over the dimestore drive-thru[sic] gear and his argl-bargle diesel F350 garage queen will DEFINITELY work the stick out from where it got lodged.
