[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - these replies are so interesting. Could there be an introvert/extrovert dynamic to this? As an introvert, maybe the social work of dealing with these requests just feels like more effort?[/quote] I worked in a very traditional, hierarchical organization where requests up the chain were made only when the response was likely to be yes. There was a built in notion that responding "no" was burdensome to the high-ranking official, and being turned down reflected badly on the requestor. This thread being in Family Relationships, the dynamic shouldn't be the same.[/quote]
