What can you do really, except put on your best face and fume quietly afterwards. And how do you know you may not be the idiot that someone else is desperately trying to avoid.

That's my life every day in this place! This is my second stint here and I have tried to 'go gently' this time around. Doesn't change the fact that getting things done is a pain, but at least I don't get my blood pressure up. You are right about expectations. Keep them low, then *sometimes* you are pleasantly surprised!

I always try to remember the saying 'Be kind to everyone you meet because you never know what battles people are fighting'. It often works, sometimes it doesn't and I have to call my husband to rant.

deep breath and smile! The law of attraction says that if you go into a situation expecting a negative experience you will get one .... go in with positive expectation Ha ha ha ha - the writer hasn't been to Dubai!!!!! Yeah - lower your standards and keep going until you don't think you can lower any further, then lower them some more :(
