Questions that are a result of serious & curious thought.
Are you:
  • A feminist - if you like reading chick-lit (but, categorically, don't appreciate the title to the genre but are forced to use it for lack of a better expression) but believe in women's rights and equality of the sexes and other 'feminist stuff' (well, almost, except when you need to indulge in physical labor or other such hardships and mundane activities)
  • A kid - if you are half way to mid-life crisis (umm.. a little over it, actually) but get excited about the 'small stuff', enjoy every moment you can, laugh without a care, sulk without a reason, forget you've had a fight and remember it AFTER you've started talking to the said individual again!
  • A wimp - if you don't see the point in indulging in petty fights for trivial reasons (but, overriding factor - all this AT WORK), let someone walk away with all the credit for work you've done (but let it be coz it doesn't matter to you - work got done. Period).
  • A saint - if you think you're all this and are not bothered with doing something about it.
  • A patient of schizophrenia- if you're all of the above?

Introspective; describes Shisul well ;-)

Well, to the "wimp" point- look, this is no utopia. Where a depressingly large number of people hog credit for what they did't do, you need to fill in the space for their conscience. Don't fake it, but what's the reluctance in claiming something that is yours. And that applies to both credit and blame btw.

Anu - thank you. Not sure if that describes Shisul well. Shisul is still to figure herself out.
QQ - can't help but agree with you. Point is not about not claiming what's mine when its still unclaimed for. Point is getting into petty, insignificant fights when someone else has already laid claim to your result. Is it worth it?
