(82,849 posts)See Mick, it's about negotiation and compromise. You don't just get to bull your way forward to your goal. You have to look big picture, not just this quarter's balance sheet. I know, none of this comes naturally to you and it's against every stringy fiber of your shrivelled little soul. But it's how the world works.
Grow the fuck up, you whiny-ass titty babies.
