Get a sense of humor
By QBlog in
Is it just me or do most Quixtar IBOs take their "business" way too seriously? It seems like when they sign that IBO contract they must remove their sense of humor.
No, of course they laugh. My wife laughed at all those J-O-B jokes and the one about the guy from Louisiana and the President (that's all I remember). But laughing and a sense of humor are completely different in my book. Someone with a sense of humor can laugh at themselves, is fully aware of their own quirks and foibles and enjoys a good-natured ribbing.
Folks with a sense of humor are also often a little irreverent and have a keen appreciation for irony and absolutely love a good satire, even if that satire is aimed at them. Folks without such qualities are easily offended and a total bore at parties. They just seem to take life (and their Quixtar business) too seriously.
I dunno. Maybe it is me? Maybe I've lost touch with what's "really funny" and am living in my own little world of yucks and yee-haws? Maybe those Quixtar IBOs are the ones with the sense of humor and I really am that "bitter, broke loser" they keep talking about? Or maybe I just need new material?

I think of myself more as a frying pan than a pot or kettle.
And here I thought you were a chafing dish.
Shows how much YOU know.
I once was lost but now I'm found and have my sense of humor back ... or part thereof.
I left my sense of humor at home so I could come here and be offended by this pot vs kettle remark!
*gasp!* How DARE you! I am offended!
