A Survey On a Low

It would take some personal adjusting to have a survey taken of your low. Even if you’d never had a high the drop to the depths would be a challenge. George Bush’s nose-dive to a 28 percent popularity rating could be upsetting. If a survey was done on twenty of your own acquaintances and six of them thought you were popular what about the mindsets of the other fourteen. Figure on four really hating your guts. The ones in the middle would put up with you and maybe not feel much either way. The ones’ who liked you might be suck-ups and so how accurate would their reports be. It would take some real LEADERSHIP to not get drawn into stressing about who likes you and who doesn’t. It’s the other end of the scale you’d fret about. Those folks with a real bad case of nerves just thinking about you wouldn’t be candidates to baby-sit your kids. You’d need to STAY LOOSE. How much credence could you put in someone declaring that they are going to find out who likes you and who doesn’t. Would you want to know? What would the percentage of women be who answered the questions? Would they be good looking and have any money? You’d want to know. Or not. Or would you just accept it when someone you know who doesn’t think much of you says “and the neighbors don’t like you either.” So what will you do at your next popularity low?
