    Scenario: Every relationship problem that someone brings up


    Pat Answer: Communicate.


    Reason why this answer is stupid: If a wife asks a man what he thinks of her and he says, well, she's a nagging *kitten*, it will likely make her *kitten* iness worse.

    I'll start:

    Scenario: Wendy lost weight. Suzy keeps bringing cupcakes to the office. Wendy perceives it as sabotge. Wendy complains on annonymous message board.

    Pat Answer: Tell HR.

    Reason why this answer is stupid: Wendy wants a promotion. HR isn't going to think of her as leadership potential if she can't handle petty grievances with one coworker.

    I would be the worst (or maybe the best ) HR manager ever, because I would only have three answers to any given issue:

    1. No.

    2. Buck up and stop acting like a crybaby.

    3. Rub some dirt on it.

    Live life to the fullest; live like it is your last day on earth, etc.

    Who does this...most of us assume a week/year, etc. from now we will still be here and just live our day to day routine lives.

    Treat people like you want to be treated

    Yeah does not always work...sometimes people need to be called out on their *kitten* to make them realize.
