EngineeringChic: Hi Mr DragonDog,
The way I see it, people either accept me or they don't. However I will still put posts on here anyway bacause I enjoy the diversity these conversations bring. Part of my job as an engineer is to be able to inter-culturally interact, meaning accept others views and ways they do things, but not to be conformed to them. I do not beleive there is a right or wrong answer, but an answer that could be the best one. I am mindful of how I react to others answers because I do not want to offend. I am a team player therefore it is of utmost importance that I maintain a good relationship with people. At the end of the day, a team that doesn't get along is unproductive.
Do you see where I am coming from?

Yes Sam i quite agree with rhetoric. Words spun by a good spin dr. But it doesn't show your warped. i was seeking the warped side of you. This just shows that your People skills and political skills ned little polishing.
Now please Sam this next bit is not a personal attack. just a little debating.
Reading between the lines of what you've written. Expanding on what bourbon wrote.
As you write, there is no right or wrong answer but there is a way that satisfies more people. So this is considered the most correct way to do things. But it is rarely explained to the group like that. Instead they say it in the first person implying it is my way or the Highway.
But as stated by Bourbon, just getting a group to get on with each other does not make a group a productive group.
And someone who is mindful of how they react with others is said by others to be Wishy Washy. As they watch that one Flip and flop trying to satisfy all.
It is important to note; In these sorts of HR statements they fail to recognise the individual. Yet it is the individual who will make or break a team.
The Hero is always the individual who stepped outside the team for the good of themselves and the team. Every team needs a leader and a good leader is rarely a good team player. They inspire and lead by example, not merge and try and be everyones friend.
Aas an after thought. I will also say the villan is also someone who stepped outside the team and selfishly stuffed it up for everyone.
It's a very fine line between Hero and villan.
Thanks in advance though Sam, To allow a bit of debate in the Forum.
