I think last year I talked about the know-it-alls and the overly-confident-for-no-good-reason type of people. That does put me off. Really makes me wonder about people when they are as new to a situation as you are yet they talk as if they know everything about it. And it’s all BS.
Besides this, those people who completely lack self awareness, they boggle my brain. In the online course I’m taking, the Instructor often breaks us into small groups and we’re put in breakout rooms on Teams. Let’s say there’s three or four of us and we have fifteen minutes to discuss whatever it is.
Some people will start talking, and it’s usually the first or second one to pipe up, and rather than actually paying attention to the time remaining, they’ll monopolize the whole thing.
They don’t seem to care that in fifteen minutes we each should be getting some time to talk. Fifteen divided by four, do the math.
They don’t want to do math. They want to have the floor to themselves and try and impress the other three with how much they know.
And persons three and four, have fun, you get to divvy up the remaining forty-five seconds to say what you wanted to say.
