Black bits and that. I can't understand how someone with that level of responsibility thinks that it's acceptable to lead business meetings with literally tens of millions of dollars at stake, with a gob like Dalry Cemetry. It's not as if he's short of a few quid to get them fixed, ffs. My respect for the guy is greatly diminished on those grounds alone. It's basic stuff. Some people have a real phobia about dentists. I’ve a friend whos teeth are like a row of condemned houses . Going to the dentist is so important as they can also check for other illnesses such as mouth or oral cancers. Earlier detected the better . Edited February 1, 2023 by JudyJudyJudy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyJudyJudy Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 3 hours ago, Lord BJ said: It’s a quality, amongst many. Good looking people make better leaders, it’s a fact. (Fair or not) Not understanding importance of appearance is lacking in intelligence and emotional awareness to cater for others tbh. Whilst, knowing it and doing nothing about it is even worse. It’s not complicated 🤷🏻♂️ At no point have I said it’s the be all and end all🤷🏻♂️ however, the more leadership qualities they have generally better leader. On your last para off course but that’s issue. You need to become a leader to prove effectiveness, that why it’s generally very important as we are judged hugely by our first impression. . Especially higher up where interactions are short. People make the good guy/wank decision within a min of meeting someone. I really can’t help but feel you’re not understanding and I genuinely have no idea the point you’re trying to make. This stuff isn’t a debate, lots of stuff (studies etc) out there if you want to read up on that and leadership. Most the stuff is learned skills even the body language etc. Though like most skills some people are naturals others not so much. Anyway as pointless discussion goes this must be up there. Leadership qualities on inflation threads. Take it easy 👍 Properly better than my economic chat, I grant you 😂 First appearances and presentation are important in initial social interactions .

Slowdown is under way in housing market and looks like gets worse before better. Possibly. Hopefully moving back up to Inverness. Plenty going up there, especially when this free port kicks off. I'll never drive a taxi ever again. I'm well insured, so I'll just figure out a way to make sure the Mrs gets that. Scaffolding fall or road traffic accident.

We live just outside Forres for six years, that area, Inverness along to Fochabers is lovely, one of the places we'd move back to, infact, there's an area managers job for FLS advertised I thought about applying for last week but FLS is a basket case and I don't think I'd last unfortunately.
