Reputation is EVERYTHING................ if you remember that you won't go far wrong

Even when you have the right ars*hole with something/ someone try and resolve it to everybody's satisfaction as opposed to ''F*ck off and find yourself another whatever''............... as tongues wag for both good and bad........... however, in my experience they wag MUCH quicker and to more people when they have something bad to say
