Ive been guilty of gossip in my younger days but whilst i was at college and uni i was victim to some extensive bullying due to gossip that was totally untrue. Since then i have always tried to only say good things about people especially when using their names-if i cannot be totally positive i try and stay quiet or give an overall balanced opinion of good and bad points without being too focussed on negative qualities. We all have negative qualities as we're all human but its how we use our positive and negative qualities that gets us through.<br /><br />I have just started to read your blog im sorry its taken so long ive been battling some rather major health issues aswell as wrestling some rather difficult tribunal situations recently and all i can do is apologise i have been so rubbish at keeping in touch. I promise to try harder :-)<br /><br />Will be doing a lot of reading over the next few days to catch up on things.<br /><br />I hope you are well and i look forwards to speaking to you soon.<br />Take care <br />lotsa lv Rattles Xxxxrattleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05443362027817427981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927199606776255610.post-5062955552724644332009-05-14T15:13:00.000-07:002009-05-14T15:13:00.000-07:00Sid,

Having been trai...I don't tend to listen to gossip. Having been trained in propaganda and it's uses as a weapon, morale building tool etc gossip is just the same thing done by non-professionals. My usual response is to claim I have no idea who they are talking about. To be honest I usually don't. Even when I do claiming to not know is a very good way to drive them ( the gossips ) nuts with frustration. When you notice that is happening you know they are only doing it in some misguided view that putting others down elevates them.<br /><br />On the other hand I have a habit of putting mouth in gear when I should be applying the brakes. This usually applies to jokes or wisecracks. The odd time it is very effective. I recall one time I had a very busy day at work. All of the Emergency Mechanics had been going non stop for over 9 hours. The pay stubs were at the station which I was stationed at. Around 1AM things settled down. 3 of the other four Mechanics on duty were down to get their stubs and all 3 were black. The collector on duty was a good looking young blonde lady named Kim. The subway would be closing in another half hour and the bars were closing. We were at Toronto's busiest station Yonge and Bloor. A skin head ( white racist ) came in and saw me talking with my 3 black co-workers. He stared at them and blurted out "All niggers should be hung" before the guys had a chance to react ( one of them Henderson was a semi-profesional bodybuilder and could have torn him apart with one hand ). I wise cracked back " I can't speak for all of them but these 3 sure are hung ".<br /><br />My buddies switched from angry to laughing so hard they could barely stand. Kim fell out of her seat and the skinhead almost crawled down the stairs.Sid Brechinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00861501123102122129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927199606776255610.post-38983162898459935762009-05-14T09:06:00.000-07:002009-05-14T09:06:00.000-07:00hi odette, you are never short of good ideas to po...hi odette, you are never short of good ideas to post, what a great mind!<br /><br />as much as i hate to say this but i stayed away from getting too close with our community for this very primary reason. you know how it is. but it is a human nature and within us. you can always detect a gossipy person through the movement of the eyes and facial experessions and also the kind of conversation they carried. it's amazing how gossip spreads faster than any epedemics, uncomparable to any modern techs any genius minds could invent.<br />my marital fall out was a hot venue for a while, i told one friend about it and there it goes bwalah!!! i was an instant star. I am no longer upset of having my personal life being scrutinized, I have learned to shrug my shoulder and laugh it off with them.amnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09331372661842820754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927199606776255610.post-53008754003921240342009-05-14T07:31:00.000-07:002009-05-14T07:31:00.000-07:00As Tracey has already said, I also had some "frien...As Tracey has already said, I also had some "friends" who I discovered had been spreading lies about me to other friends and there was a big bust up back in 2005 and since then I have been careful how much of my life I share with people, especially those I don't know that well, and espcially when I'm writing posts on the internet...my blog here is public and is censored, but my LJ is private and only people I know can read it so I'm more likely to share more personal things.<br /><br />As for my own words, I'm ashamed to say that in my younger years I did my own gossiping and I sometimes fall prey to it even now, but generally, I'm good at keeping my bad opinons to myself and only telling people good things about someone else.<br /><br />Now, back to writing chapter 19 of book seven!<br /><br />JoeyJoey Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00950833278471728849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927199606776255610.post-37146352646734834202009-05-14T07:09:00.000-07:002009-05-14T07:09:00.000-07:00We have never had neighbours, so gossiping over th...We have never had neighbours, so gossiping over the garden fence is out of the question! I am very choosy about friends, and I never tell anyone else anything ever!
