How to Express Admiration

February 18, 2022 by Scott Meyer

Not to mention the subterranean city hidden beneath the Magic Kingdom.

I once had two middle-aged men walk up to me while I was working in one of the parks and ask me to solve an argument for them. One of the men said that he had heard there was an extensive tunnel system under the Magic Kingdom.

The other guy said, “No, there isn’t.”

I said, “There is.”

The first guy said, “I told you.”

The second guy said, “No, there isn’t.”

I said, “I’ve been in it, more than once.”

The second guy said, “You’re lying.”

I don’t have a lot of faith left in mankind’s ability to settle our differences.

How to Tackle a Project That Seems Impossible

January 12, 2022 by Scott Meyer

I was the receptionist at an office where everyone had to fill out a specific form every day. Almost nobody did it. The person in charge made it my responsibility to make sure everyone filled out their form.

Of course, I was the lowest person on the totem pole in that office, so I couldn’t use fear of punishment to make them fill out the form. Instead, I had to rely on charm and their respect for me and my opinion of them.

I’d bet that you can predict how well that worked.
