I am a Scorpio
and even if my last name comes from Germany..
my Dads' people owned Sicily for like 600 years..




I don't really hold grudges..
I embrace them.. feed them and Nurture them.....

Ah yes.

Scorpio here, plus an Indian. Never p*** off an Indian. The Indian Telegraph will make the Coconut Telegraph look like a high school newspaper.

Note to self: Don't EVER p.ss off Wayne or Ravi!

you are good..

I wouldn't want you mad at me either - but then I can't imagine why anyone would want to screw you over, you're such a great guy!!!

Yes. I won't say with whom, but there are people whom I hold grudges against. There are people who know to whom at least one person I hold a grudge against.

I flashed back today.. I had a former supervisor that
made my life harsh..
when I left California.. I put two bumper stickers on her car.. (brand new)

first one...

" My husband locks me in a Kennel at night..
I'm a B)(ch"

the other??
Uh not for a Family board..

OK that is a good action!!!

I have a situation where I felt I was wronged badly by someone that was a major influence behind my decision to move to Sydney - and I have to go to a social function next weekend - and I am the only person she will know - she is one of the bosses ..... I dont know how I am gonna keep my mouth shut on how wonderful my job is now ...... so guess that is a grudge????

I'd basically ignore that person completely and brag about how wonderful my job is.

It also depends on if I receive a genuine apology. By genuine I'm not talking about apologizing for something and then turning around and doing exactly what you just apologized for either. It's sad that some people just aren't decent enough to offer a sincere apology.

That being said I've also found that the majority of the BN'ers are forgiving if you do offer a genuine apology. Well unless they've been screwed over bad........

And that being said there are simply some things I will not apologize for. About 2 months ago I went off on someone in a big way - I will NEVER apologize for that- nope not one iota. The persons involved deserved it and much more...

I tend to guage on intention rather than the severity of the issue - sometimes an innocent error can result in the ugliest of issues - but if there was no bad intent - I will forgive.

If there is intent - well - GONE!!!!

I had some incredible proof of Karma today.....a former co-worker of mine who is/was the biggest back stabbing, lying, cheating SOB I've ever known in my LIFE was teaching a gun safety class today and shot himself......
and yes, he's hurt, but I guess he's going to be okay....Karma is a b*tch

Intent plays a big part for me too. So does remorse.

Yeah.. I suspect that I anger more people by not meaning what
they heard, than I do by doing/saying something wrong..

Wayne that's silly - I've seen you think that you said something wrong and apologize when an apology was never necessary
