Tough Talk: March 6, 2024

Tough Talk,

I have a group of friends who work at this social services organization that takes donations and goods on behalf of the less fortunate.  They have worked really hard and gone beyond the call of duty over the years.  It has paid off and one of them has been promoted and now can really take advantage of the constant intake of goods and donations.  There is a whiff of corruption.  She also is letting her friends take advantage and they no longer work the whole day and leave early. And now, they all act high and mighty, forgetting why they got into this field to begin with.  What should I do TT? (Berryman, Colorado)

Berry,

It’s sounds like your so-called friends have let a stupid promotion go to their heads and have shown their true color which is arrogance and selfishness.  You need to take the bull by the horns and tell them they have lost their way and that you are totally disgusted by their behavior. are and find them thoroughly repulsive.  You’ll need to use some tough talk.  They may not like what they hear, but one day they will thank you.  Don’t worry about their feelings.
