Where did the author of this article get his facts? I expect more from the Derry News.

Half of the "facts" in the article are only partially true.

Come on guysand gals... do some research before publishing articles in your paper.

Joseph,

Thanks for your reply on Zillow Home Valuation on my blog site on AR. After all the bullsh#t answers that I got, your answer hit what I was looking for right on the head. Have a great weekend.

Greg

in People don't like you because they're earlier versions of you on Torley Lives
In my experience, as with guitar, hockey, or graphic design (my fortes) I find the pendulum swings the other way.

As a rookie in any field, I value and seek out the advice of other, more experienced people. Arrogance or jealousy may fly in high school, but legitimate gripes in real fields will end your career in said fields.

I'm decent at guitar, was in the ECHL and do design for a living... and I find that I have little patience and often snap at the "noobs". It takes a LOT of effort to be nice and mentor the people starting out, in essence "I don't like people because they're earlier versions of me". It takes a big heart and patience to mentor these people, because either you can never think of yourself sucking at guitar that bad, or you're protecting your career (ie they're a threat), or you've paid your dues playing hockey.

That's just my experience. I've always been humble... but the few things I actually excel at I defend and get jealous over, especially when that person shows promise. Being helpful and not threatened is great, and usually those below you really look up to you and respect that, much less remember it for years to come.

Why would I worry if it was in my house, and again... ignorance is bliss with public toilets. But of course public toilets get used by other people. So.... what's the point of this?
