Sobti used to always talk about the 'little black book' - everyone has one, especially in the workplace. Allow me to elaborate the concept - if you were to cause one any sort of heartburn - possibly by way of a promotion, 'one-upmanship' - anything for that matter - even an argument, he/she will jot your name down in his/her little black book and when the time is right - a time when you will not be able to retaliate - this person will definitely make sure that you pay for your earlier intransigence. Such people always get back at you.
What hurts is when your subordinates are made to pay in order to avenge your intransigencies. Someone who has nothing to do with whatever has happened just gets it for no rhyme or reason and it hurts more than it would if the person had just made you pay in some way.....and today I can't do a shit.
You got me. We are even now. I owe you nothing.
