One-uppers!

This post is dedicated to the all the people who have to deal with the "one-uppers"! You know, the select few that have to outdo whatever you say? I am fortunate to work with one! No matter what I say or do, this girl has to comeback with something "better"... Its actually quite amusing! I am pretty certain that it stems from high self esteem, or it could be just an awesome personality trait! (sensing the sarcasm??)

Today while I am at work I plan on seeing just how much better she is than me... Is that mean? I will challenge her to come up with superior accomplishments, just to make my day a little bit more entertaining. I will not have to try that hard since this commonly occurs with her.

How many of us deal with "these" people? What is the right way to handle working, living or acquainting such a delightful person? I know that there is gratification in being the "bigger" person and letting things like this slide. Seeing that this is a HUGE sign of poor self confidence, maybe playing on it with my co-worker is kind of being a bully.. I guess I should just have a little compassion for her, and simply deal with it. (As hard as that might be) It has been said that you should do at least one good deed daily. Maybe today I try to be tolerant, but I can't promise anything!
