That is so true. I was even criticized by upper echelon when I tried to give proper credit to another.

It would be nice for people to be big enough in spirit to be able to credit others but most just can't do it!

Good post!  Pride is actually a self=demeaning quality that gets in the way love and other good qualities.

jim won't watch it nor would Wiley but i love the big bang Theory. Actually i wonder if some of these people want a Nobel Prize and are not going to share anything or name anyone else incase it affects them negatively. Either that or they are so arrogant they just can't accept anyone but them is worth anything.

Good Afternoon

Pat, I think some people just don't have it in them to say thank you.  I wish I knew why.

Really it is a form of something, but it really means me,me, me.

My brother watches all of the episodes so I rarely get to see them.

Re: Ciel

Observed that many a time while working at SIUE - faculty (mostly male) who hogged the spotlight and never wanted to share any of the credit.

Re: Sherri G

The diff between those two characters is that Amy was loving and generous and Sheldon was anything but empathetic.

Good afternoon

John and I used to watch that show regularly. Amy and Sheldon have an interesting relationship that often portrays a battle of the high I.Q's. It could be that bosses fear that too many thank you's will lead to an eventual pay raise.

So many women who did the actual work see the accolades go to the men who could not have succeeded without them. Some of them saw those men get Nobel recognition that should have gone to the women.
