Aspies For Freedom

I thought it might be interesting to post who we think are the worst rolemodels.

One of my ideas of the worst rolemodel...

The lousy boss.

     He's the kind of boss you avoid to comminucate with on purpose. He thinks that social skills makes a person a good worker, while his mind clearly misses all the effort a person gives to the business and any smiles/compliments the customer sends in return. As far as he is concerned, you need to "step up" and/or work harder. However, instead of explaining why or what you need to "step up" he annoyingly dodges giving an answer by blameing you for complaining or arguing toward him.

      He will tell you that he listens to you "if there is a problem" in the very begining to lure you into his 'not good enough", manipulative mind games. Soon as you do try to tell him about something, he replyies to you with some standard line that has worked to brush you off in the past. Such as, "No one's harassing you. No one's being mean to you." The same, lame line will even pop up with a stupid, lousy boss when you only wish to be more sure about your job performance and nothing more.

      If he does finally find a problem between employees, he won't rationaly try to solve the issue. He will use shouting and demeaning phrases to "correct" your "bad actions". When the conflict is in place, he will forever treat you like the lazy, unloyal employee regardless of what you done or what you accomplished during your job. He won't believe you if you tell him about missing products or food ingrediance that is running out of stock. After all, you're not his little employee buddy and therefore (according to him) don't have the intellectual standard that a person should have because you aren't friends. To him, friends can't do any wrong.

      If you tell him something is out of stock, he will ask for a second oppinion, or for someone else to check as if you don't know what you're doing. Nothing you do will be suffictiant for him. As soon as you get to the last standard he told you, he will raise the difficulty up a notch and make your job feel like some cheep video game of drudgery and enslavement. Everything his friendly, social coworkers do, even the errors, he treats as 'ok' and might even give them a little mini warning. When you do the same thing you get yelled at or warned. He will sometimes argue with customers, but tell you never to do the same thing.

The devil-care-bear-woman (Yes, I do have someone specific in mind, but I doubt anyone here would know her.)

She usually speaks with a high pitched tinny voice, and with a shrieking laugh like something between a banshee and a hyena.

She treats everybody like she would treat a small child, but at the same time treats all small children like miniature retards.

As she laughs, her chin scrunches up like an accordion. And even the smallest jokes are rendered useless by the power of her over-reactive laugh.

She tries to make herself into your "friend", but reaches for a superior, condescending role that makes you shrink from her presence.

She is as condescending / patronising as if she'd been engineered with the genes of a care bear (hence the above appellative.)

Hah, this learning support woman at my old secondary school :p
I should have just told her one day "i'm normal, now *** off"

The "blonde" prep.

She touches boys in bad places, and tries to steal their things. She gets into catfights with other girls. She disapproves of quieter people. She screams in a high-pitched way and her voice is pointy enough to stab your eardrum out. She travels in large groups. When she talkes to these groups, the whole group manages to form an impassable wall. She is deaf to "Excuse me, please move" and gets really mad when you push her. She takes over the majority of the female population, ruining your wardrobe.

Meiolyn. Try the headbutt. Sooo unladylike the blonde prep girls will not expect it or know how to react to their smashed nose.
Then again you may get into trouble...maybe not a good idea.

xD

Good ol' Zinedine Zindane.

I can't believe I spelt his name wrong. Its Zidane.

He was an inspiring rolemodel to every football playing person, until the headbutt. It was funny though and helped me win a £40 bet I had with my brother and my dad. I said 1-1, my dad said 1-0 Italy and my brother said 1-0 France. I wonder how many little kids have been copying him on the football field.

AAAAAAAAAAAH, YES! And she has foster children that she simply abuses.

The one I know does.

I have enjoyed the last ones.

My number 2 bad rolemodel.

The 'All Mighty' Prophet (I thought this title would be very funny)

    This person thinks they know whats best for the universe. Anything you say, that they don't agree with, they will think that you need help or corrective actions. This narssict loves nothing more than to proove that he's/she's always right in his/her over all belief system. It wouldn't matter much if their own Deity gave them devine intervention, they would still go on thinking that their the best wise folk.
    
     When religion comes into play, the little prophet uses what they know to persuade you to think in their terms. They know that according to their religion, it's right and proper to teach other's about it. However,  they will literaly point the finger and call you wrong, blasfemous, ect. because you raise a question they don't want to answer, or you again don't agree with their 'all knowing' mind.

      They will call the religious material that you grew up with "boocoo" material (my grandfather's term to mean 'satan's books' or "material that corrupts the soul". he does also think fiction reading is sinning). Listening and understanding the other person's perspective doesn't mean squat to them because they long ago gained a strong concept of "my way or the wrong way". When it comes to a church, they bring along a mental check list of how it should function just for them.

     If a little thing is different or 'out of place, they will get very angry and call the church false and "unscriptual". They will then storm out, and tell the people that agree with them about the "evil deeds" of that one church, despite whether it's within their own religion or not. In this case, they think it's the deity's way, when really it't their way. When their belief system doesn't envolve the religion, they find something else to preach over and make other people agree with.

     As a parent, spouse, boss, or even "best friend", this person can be mighty toxic. Everything within the household of the parent/spouse prophet must be to their likeing, but not nessisarily to anyone elses'. After all, they 'know everything' and are 'all knowing'. Everything not completly to their likeing must be 'fixed'. The prophet will basicaly preach to his family how things should be done their way.

Common female prophetess "You men are all the same! 'snif' Oh! My heart, I can't breath... You were supposed to (their high standard do list here). I am so dissapointed in you. I failed to make the perfect man! 'sob, faint'"
Common male prophet "No, no, no! I told you for the last time, that you were supposed to do it that way, not your way. What?! *suddenly goes into I'm the victim mode* No you're not, you're makeing it up! How many times do I have to tell you! I am the male, you're the inferior female! You are supposed to serve the house, I RUN IT!"
Msl. bad behavior typical of toxic prophets.. "What do you want to talk about?" If it's not one of their topics to proove, "(their BS excuse or reply for dodging the responcibility of listening here)."

      As a friend or date, they annoy their date with their need to control you. During every date, it's always the prophet's topic, not your's. And when it actualy is your topic to discuss, the prophet must manipulate it or be a noble pain in the butt, in order for it to be the "correct' way to talk and think. What it boils down to, is that this prophet person goes around makeing sure that everyone knows that they are always right. Their personal job is to be correct and all knowing. It's their obsession to go proove how they are right.

Almighty prophet...sounds familar....You didn't come up with this term after intensive case study on my ex-wife by any chance? LOL
Terrible Rossco.

Heheh. Nope. More like from my grandfather.

By a funny sort of coincidence, the one I know (knew) was once a social worker.

[insert scary face here.]

Goodness gracious, I have met so many perky twits in my life! Many of the counsellors I saw fell into that category and it really annoyed me when they would tell me off but have a big smile at the same time because it seemed so hypocritical and fake. It was probably part of their training though.

Perky Male Twit (aka. P.M.T.)

Any relation to the Role Model Wannabe?
