Rich or Stubborn?



Snarky attitudes don’t only come from a wealthy background. I find myself on a high horse when I feel a moral push and occasionally shout when the spirit moves me to do so. A friend suggested his co-worker, who tends to get bossy and high-pitched when she does not get her way, has a holier-than-thou position because she is confident she doesn’t really need the income. Her family has enough to feed and clothe her for decades so she has the wealth shield of protection behind her roar. I disagree since I get disenchanted with a system and blare my discontentment. As an employee, the Dog House is a commonplace spot for me. I have tamed the reactive beast in the past eight years or so, yet hardly accept the fact that a disingenuous boss/company/system immoral directive be swallowed without complaint.

So, what is it that gives us the guts to defy an order, to stand up to someone or something when we vehemently disagree?
