Seeking sanity

Dear Jimmydo,

How do you inform someone that they’re not cut out for a job that they have without making them feel bad?

I have a hard time saying “no” to people and find that I am overwhelmed most of the time because of it. How can I become more assertive in my communication so that I save myself from insanity?

Desperately seeking sanity

Dear seeking sanity,

JimmyDo recommends that you find a posture that makes you look as comfortable as possible. Tell them this sentence verbatim: "JimmyDo says that you are not cut out for this job. I agree with JimmyDo. Oh by the way, do you want a tissue?" Then leave.

The confusion that will ensue will keep the anger from reaching you for a while. Because you were able to make someone else responsible, they will have no idea where to focus their rage. Who has ever heard of JimmyDo?!

Party

Dear JimmyDo,

During Spring Break I flew in a plane to my destination. On the seats next to me was a mother with an infant. The infant screamed the whole flight. When we got in I wanted to get my hearing checked because I think I suffered hearing loss from the screams.

JimmyDo remembers a wise person once said"And a little child shall lead them". JimmyDo says TAKE NOTES, YOU MORON. JimmyDo is SO SORRY about your poor little ears. When you get to your destination you will be exposed to loud music and screaming crowds that will make that baby next to you, sound like it is whispering. You will be ingesting copious amounts of alcohol and all your "animal" instincts will be tingling.

JimmyDo says, watch the baby. The baby is crying because it wants. It is demanding to have its desires met. Maybe when you reach your destination, you too can be crying like a baby and get your desires filled as well..
