A coworker casually threw this quote out the other day: “Some people don’t play nice in the sandbox.” It was funny at the time, but then I started to think about how it basically explains all the difficult interactions I’ve had with people throughout my life. You know, the power hungry colleague or the condescending acquaintance that infects a circle of friends. They’re out to make your life miserable, but who cares in a sandbox. Just take your toys, move to another corner and don’t let them kick sand in your face.
