I’ve been thinking a lot on my free time and I think it’s useful to share some tips with you on how to deal with dumb people all the time.
We all go through that at some moment of our lives. Sometimes it just takes us to look at the person sitting right next to us.
This has been helping me deal with this problem:
1. Invest in good mp3 player and/or headphones: if you have good music and good equipment that blocks any noise from the surroundings, you will be able to work without interruptions and listening to stupid remarks/questions. The added value of this tip is that besides blocking the noise, the headphones usually demotivate people from talking to you.
2. Always put on your ‘statue look’: whatever you do, never show any interest on what these people talk or do. You need to keep your face frozen, with no emotions, at all times.
3. Try to act like an asshole anytime you are asked something: if you give people stupid/asshole replies, they will probably try to avoid contact with you in the future.
4. Use tranquilisers: if none of the above tips are effective, your only way to keep your sanity is to use prescription drugs. These will not do you any harm if prescribed by a certified physician and if it’s the correct dosage. They will in fact make your life a lot easier and working with dumb people will be much better, since you will not care about them at all.
5. If everything else fails, just tell them they’re stupid and their dumbness is disturbing you: this will of course not solve any problem, but will make you feel a lot better with yourself!
If you don’t have the time to read the above instructions, here you can find the shorter picture version:
