Say what you will about Go Dog Go, but I absolutely love the open and honest exchange between these two. No one got hurt, and no one was rude. And at the end of the day, everybody was better for it.
In case you in fact do not know how to write a resignation letter, let me help demonstrate using a standard way, and a fancy way:
standard
I quit.
fancy
Dear
<Manager Name>
,
I quit.
Sincerely,
<Your Name>
It should be noted that <Manager Name> and <Your Name> are placeholders that you would replace with the name of your manager and the name they put on your paycheck under “Pay to the order of” field, respectively.
It’s quite possible these men have reached the Nirvana of being thick-skinned. If so, we all should be in awe, as that is a rare thing to achieve. It also could be that men are not allowed to show emotion, and would otherwise be condemned if they complained or didn’t “take it like a man”; especially being around a lot of women where they feel even more pressured to show up and be a man.
In the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (also referred to as H2G2), a hitchhiker will always travel with a towel. Hence why everyone is making frood references.
It’s kind of like when you get a sunburn, and someone comes up and gives you a slap right on the sunburn. Maybe they meant to, or maybe they didn’t. Either way, it’s going to hurt like hell until your sunburn heals.
One of the many things I’ve learned in my two years of therapy is that we carry our pain and trauma around like a big old sunburn, and more often than not we get slapped by other people not realizing we’re hurting already.
I wish you the best on your journey of healing. It’s never easy, and you’ll often find yourself relapsing. But don’t give up on yourself.
I just made "Father of the Year" by enforcing a time limit on my 12 yo playing with his friends on the computer, so his younger brother could play, and now he's in his room in tears. Yeah, adulting sucks sometimes.
At first, not likely. But if you take the time and spend the effort to genuinely get to know your partner (on that intimate level), then yes you can learn their tells. It also takes a lot of open and honest communication, which means sometimes you or they may hear things that are not flattering. But that should be okay and encouraged, because as with anything else in life, it’s through failure that you learn and grow and get better.
So if working from home. Isolation sucks.
