Following on from yesterday’s post, Bob Sutton has come up with an Arsehole Test to go with his new book
You answer True or False to statements like:
You secretly enjoy watching other people suffer and squirm.
You believe that one of the best ways to “climb the ladder” is to push other people down or out of the way.
And my personal favourite:
You enjoy lobbing “innocent” comments into meetings that serve no purpose other than to humiliate or cause discomfort to the person on the receiving end.
Over the years, I’ve met a number of people who liked doing that.
It’s interesting to fill it in for yourself but also to complete it for people you know. If you’re really brave you could ask your colleagues to fill it in for you. Then you’d find out how much of an arsehole they really think you are.
Hat Tip: Guru
I saw this a few days ago and it is brilliant. just so you know!
