I've been there and I remember wishing the ground would just open up and swallow me whole so I could get out of it. It doesn't have to be that way, either. I just went on a job interview yesterday. The manager who was doing the interview was obviously an extrovert, but he was so kind and welcoming that I actually bubbled with enthusiasm, as well. I think the people that are rude, such as this author you encountered, are typically insecure. Your advice is good advice. Keep smiling!Heather Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09504581197597982992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-81365979666722176432019-10-24T14:35:53.336-04:002019-10-24T14:35:53.336-04:00Good advice, Chrys.

I'm more outgoing around children. Guess it's because I taught for many years and young ones don't intimidate me.

That person usually does run up against me since I am also headstrong. (I'm lucky - I am an outgoing introvert. LOL) But keeping one's tongue in check is a good idea.L.
