People Person....

I think like most people.... I like to believe I'm a 'people person'...
Strange thing is ~~ do we all just believe our own hype?
Anyone who's written their CV, has had to try & explain what a fantastic human-being they are...
Funnily enough, we all tend to use the same four or five words....
We'd like to put more down ~~
try and cover absolutely every angle & possible want from the prospecting employer..
But as we learn from the first few attempts, what the School taught you about writing a CV was bollocks!
After the first five descriptive words, it starts to read like a shopping list!

And let's face it... if you write like me & keep changing the use of: 'and' / '&'.
Any employer with a B in English will begin to get really annoyed!!
Why do we even have the symbol & (AKA 'ampersand')?
Why isn't their other symbols... for words like 'it'??
What? Because, there is one more character in the word 'and' ~~ someone felt the need to reduce it down to a single character symbol!?
Was this person able to foresee the future? Did they know of the impending confinement of Twitter & Text!?

Getting back to my point.. We all like to believe we are a 'people person'... Some even do write it on their CV!
Is it really that necessary? Do we all actually expect the person reading it would think we're a sad recluse, because we do not state otherwise!!
That's just ridiculous!  Chances are, they won't even bother to read it!!

But, still, after affirming to ourselves, over years & years of our youth & self-development, that we are, confident, we are outgoing, fun, bubbly, enjoy being around people & can get along with anyone.....
I bet... like me... when you venture out into the big bad world....
More specifically... you venture out during the day... a Saturday... Into the Town centre...
By god/allah/cow (who-ever/whatever fits your faith, I don't judge.. just mock!!)

I bet.. like me.. Especially on a busy Saturday... You fucking LOATH people!!

It's a peculiar double-standard though isn't it...
I can only parallel the psychological feeling, to that of when we are behind the wheel of a motor vehicle...
Suddenly, you're not a people person, any-more than you're a child rapist!!
And with that statement, I think it's only fair to say; that for a small minority (as far as we are aware),
they thoroughly enjoy the busy environment.. They become a people person!
Admittedly, most usually... They become a 'little people person'!!
The busy streets, a perfect playground for their 'lolly pop' cliché... 'stranger danger' ways!!

HAHA.. I'm just quietly admiring the idea of how a paedophiles CV reads!!
