As much a I loathe the phone, and have such terrible success rate at getting what I want via phone conversation to major corporations, when something is not right I will waste hours (on hold mostly) as they pass me around department to department hoping I'll give up. Jokes on them because I won't give up. But ultimately jokes on me because they literally won't care.

I’m very much like this, but typically only in the defense of others. I struggle to stand up for myself at all

well i'm an anarchist now who studies fascism as a special interest cause I have a hard time understanding why people act like that and want to know what can we do to fight against it. I honestly run myself ragged a lot trying to find ways to help other people.

I have this to a strong degree. Can't enjoy true crime. Have to filter some news, especially the tragedy porn.

Anyway, started a lot of fires at my old job due to how some of my hires were treated by corporate. Pretty much marked me as not promotion material. All in all happy about it. Managed to do some good.

I categorize this with the emotional regulation issues. I had to talk to HR today about a health insurance issue only to find out the law restricts certain changes to once a year and I'm shit out of luck. I'm so enraged by my impotence to change this stupid rule I could cry my stomach is all in knots and my mood is ruined.

Calling out injustice is a thing i try to do, but with my poor communication skills it often backfires on me.
