Usable Insight – Know Any Jerks?
8 Signs of a Jerk
- Interrupts.
- Doesn’t take turns.
- Takes advantage of people who are down
- Gloats in victory.
- Is sullen in defeat.
- Is not fair.
- Lack integrity.
- Is the kind of person you’ll avoid if you possibly can.
One of the reasons that most jerks get to you is that first they appall you, then they frustrate you, then they anger you and then they outrage you. And if you’re not comfortable with feeling outraged (as is true for most people), that is when they push you off balance and get the better of you.
