One that comes to mind for me: “Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is not always true. Maybe even only half the time! Are there any phrases you tend to hear and shake your head at?

    I dont think it applies if everyone you know is actually an asshole.

    The takeaway from the phrase is just to check yourself and your attitude. Make sure you aren’t the one being difficult before you confirm that all these other people are shit heads.

    Juat about self-awareness.

      Yep. I’ve worked with people who call everyone on their team idiots/lazy, oblivious that they are in fact, the toxic asshole.
