Working With Almost Anyone

Gopher Tortoise Sign

Many animals can coexist with many other animals; can humans coexist with other humans?

I think it’s fair to say that I can adapt and work with almost anybody. Not everybody, definitely no absolutism here. Regardless of beliefs or nationality, for example, I’ve managed to work with fundamentally different people both personally and professionally. I realise that not everyone can do this, and there are many reasons this can be difficult.

There are still people I cannot have a calm and constructive conversation with, but that typically boils down not to culture but to basic things like nonsensical core. For example, people who judge people based on what car they drive are typically toxic people; people whose whole life is based on reality [sic] TV shows are hard to converse with, even if they’re not obnoxious. It’s just shallow and boring.

It’s probably important for people to assess whether they can get along with many other groups of people. And if not, why not?
