why is that when something is so important to some body, they'd make someone else do it? and it is rarely ever to their liking, when it is done? why is it that most people can't seem to do their own work? they just so need someone to do it for them or clean up after them?
when it comes down to me, i'd rather do something myself than let someone do it and have to find fault and correct it a trillion times before i get something just right. maybe its the virgin trait me to be a stickler for perfection, or anything close. it isnt of the effect of an obsessive compulsive disorder but i like things a certain way and its less troublesome to do it myself than have someone else do it and have to correct them, get frustrated and waste precious energy.
but it beats me..how people can stand to have someone else do things for them when every time, with rare exceptions, something is wrong, just like clockwork. especially men. and its a trait that just gets my goat royally. u know..beggars cant be choosers...and when u ask someone to do something for you, in a very twisted and funny way you are begging, you're at their mercy and i can't believe men have their macho ego take that...but then again i guess the whole process of getting somebody to your work for you is such a big ego trip for you that it obscures your own stupidity.
ok i will not scream and shout and say that my generalisation is to the dot (even though it is)..i'm willing to consider that there might be a few exceptions to this rule of nature, as there are to most. let me say this...my dad and brother are no good examples...if i were to go by them..and truly...if any guy out there feels the need to justify....your welcome to ..but trust its gonna take u quite a cartload to convince me..
you know times like these...i just know that women are just so much more superior..(and yes..i have a supercilious grin on my face) ..pardon me but i can't help it..

too generalised. I think women get others to do more of their work with a "Please", "cute smile" or other tactics.
I think you have still not heard of Management...
Its the art of getting lotsa other people to do exactly what you have visulaised...imagine..what would have happened to henry ford had he sat down to manyfacture every car in his plant to make them perfect.....
The entire world....depends on each other..the faster we understand that, the sooner we can move on.
venks...all thats great...the production line and all that....but it isnt gonna help if when i want a letter typed out a certain way...and it isnt...i'd rather do it myself...really...
and neelakantan...there has to be a few upsides to being of the female sex man...and i'm not complaining...and after today..i'd be mad to...
But Meera,
then you can never have a receptionist....
well...yeah that might prove a problem..hmmm...dunno venks....think i'll leave that to be solved when i get there!!
To take a cue from Venks, leadership is the art of getting people to do things they don't want to do, and making them like doing it - Franklin D Roosevelt.
But its not purely a male trait. (though i could claim it thus, and lay stake to the superiority of the male ;)) Its just that the kind of things men get people to do, and the kind of things that women get people to do are a little different. F'r instance, (with no attempt here to stereotype gender roles - not mcp comments at all) a guy may get a girl to write his record for him (and hell, I've seen millions get girls to do it), but a girl may get a guy to, say, drop her outside or get him to move a piece of heavy furniture.
In both cases, the other person may get it wrong - draw a circuit diagram in a biology record, or drop hte furniture.
So, QED. Its not a male phenomenon
:-D
ok siddhu...i have to give it to u coz u do make sense...though i believe that when ppl do get others to do their job for them...its most often things they think are trivial..i dont believe that anyone would let another handle for them, something that is beyond importance for them!! so there's the explanation for a guy's record and a woman's furniture!
...coz Men are from Mars and Women from Venus and ppl from Venus are generally better at most stuff...Historically proven fact...
jupe....buddy....ur really flattering!!! but i aint complaining!! so i'll be gracious in victory and not say 'i know i know'.instead *blush* and say 'thank you'!!*flutter eyelids*
