    When some shit hits the fan, additional shit reveals. When a flight is delayed, you see who has the courage to speak up, who complains kindly, and who is the Buddha. When a waiter misses your order, you see who is rude, who is impatient, who needs constant validation, and who overeats. When your boss…
