They Should Be More Open-Minded (But Not Really)

Because Who Needs Empathy, Anyway?

We've all been here: stuck in meetings that feel more like hostage situations, with coworkers who are totally unwilling to listen to your brilliant ideas.

Maybe they should be like Donald Duck, but without the temper? Or, you know, just be more open-minded, but let's be real, that's too much work.

Here are some helpful hints to get you through these traumas:

• Agree with them (just nod and smile, like a sociopath)
• Say "I'm not a morning person" when asked to make decisions
• Blame it on the intern

Or, just be a dictator like, here or here.
