Re-Tooling TBL

For several years TBL was a blog where I wrote about a wide variety of topics. Those postings are still in the Blog Archive and many are about professional development for engineers. I am now transitioning TBL to be a place where my current and former students can find information related to job searches.

Superiority Complex

On my first job there were two or three people who I encountered that had what I later coined as a superiority complex. They had no qualms about telling you how good they were and what weaknesses you had. It was quite intimidating to encounter these peers and they were not fun to work with. As time went on (I worked there for four years), I came to realize, quite surprisingly at the time, that in fact these people were quite insecure. Their actions were a way to cover that insecurity.

TBL: When you encounter these people, don't be intimidated. And GEEZ O' COW don't be one of them!
