i'm not looking for ulterior motives. nor do i assume pple always do things for an ulterior motive. i merely state that pple do things for a reason or a motive or a purpose.Originally posted by the Bear:ahhh.. ultimately, everyone is selfish to you...
sadly, with that kind of philosophy, a person becomes twisted and bitter as the person becomes older (note i didn't use the word "grows" older)
i guess the long and short of it is.. sometimes there are no ulterior motives...
stop looking for them
after this exchange with you, i start to understand why a lot of people especially at work view me with suspicion.. and some, downright hostility..
i never had, and will never have ulterior motives for what i say and do at work.. and they seek to find these motives... and they fail to find them where there are none...
the lack of such motives make them feel uneasy... they think that i have somehow plotted it in such a way that they are unable to see.. and then start to suspect me...
i brushed that aside when i was told this by a friend and colleague... one of those good friends made at work... i guess he was right..

wow i guess you've found the perfect candidate to serve that moving air pollutionOriginally posted by tare:the new secretary claims she dun smell anything... while the other division secretary (who having a flu) went in his room complain abt the smell....
and what i'm saying is even if you don't see the benefits as such, you are still motivated by them.Originally posted by the Bear:there may be benefits.. but here's the thing about it.. which i've been trying to say..
those who do things without ulterior motives don't even think about it.. and usually would totally fail to see any "benefits" at all because they don't even look out for them...
while those who are obsessed with benefits, will tend to let that motivate their actions.. and it becomes their reasons for doing anything...
