Why are we forced to wait when it is not needed
Wait there, wait there. We're always waiting for something. We waste time, nerves and money. We go through all the stages of anger, we learn zen, but we can't change anything. We were told to wait, and we wait. And why?
Many of us have met important women in or near government offices who have solemnly declared, "Wait!" to our modest request for attention. Why we were told to wait - I do not know. Perhaps she was having tea there, behind closed doors, or perhaps she was preoccupied with something important. Either way, here we are in the role of beggars. There's no need to be angry. We just have to face the fact that we're wasting our time.
In this case, everything is clear. This woman is nothing, her name is nothing, but she thinks otherwise. The only way she can prove her worth in the world is to manipulate our time by creating an artificial ellipse for herself.
This technique works. You really begin to believe that something depends on this woman.
But it's not just civil servants who keep us waiting. You've made an appointment with a client or partner, you arrive at the agreed time, and then you stand and wait. A bit. Long enough. Long enough for you to realise that it's better for you not to commit to this person. But you have to do it. Something is very dependent on him (money, contracts).
Again, this is manipulation aimed at increasing your own importance. The person who puts you in the waiting position knows that you are already important, that you are dependent on him in a certain situation. But that's not enough for him. He needs to entertain his ego and prove that he is not only the master of the situation, but also of time.
Even before the talks, they put you in a waiting position. They all have the same goal: to show who's boss. A sign on the door and an official statement are not enough. You need an iron ore - your time.
Other people's important people have already been dealt with. They need to be manipulated in every possible way so that no one dares question their status. But the relatives are also put on hold. Friends and relatives are stalling, stalling. Are they manipulating him? In some cases, unfortunately, yes.
Either romantic or childish people believe in friendship. It has long been known that one makes friends and the other lets himself make friends. The one who "lets" will thus prove to the other with everything he owns that he is smarter, more attractive and more successful. He is the one responsible for the relationship. And he will manipulate the other's schedule.
In this respect, relatives are no different than friends. Family ties are wonderful, but the head of the household is only one person. Or one.
Time manipulation is great in terms of effectiveness: it's 100% likely to create resentment in the one who's forced to wait. But its original purpose - to show who's boss - is only achieved in a limited number of cases.
It also happens that when someone is deliberately forced to wait, his only purpose is to make fun of him. For no reason whatsoever. Because he thinks he is more important and can afford it. Also manipulative, but very rude and cruel.
In all these situations where waiting is not necessary but forced, there is something in common. This person is extremely insecure, angry at others and expresses his dissatisfaction with the world by manipulating time. Such a person must be pitied. It depends on the circumstances whether to wait or not to waste time. Perhaps something depends on him.
