In a previous post I alluded to one of my nicknames--Switzerland. The traits that lead my friend to call me Switzerland are generally good traits, but they have some significant downsides. I've discussed some of those in the past.
A sad but predictable consequence of being "Switzerland" is the perception by many that because I am reasonable, open to compromise, and composed, I am also weak, and therefore an easy mark.
Anyone foolish enough to think so will sooner or later learn the truth. Meek does not mean weak. And those who underestimate me empower me.
Precarious human existence.
