Application for Tarek

I have common sense, think things through. My personality is that of a mediator. You won’t find me starting drama or causing rifts between people. I try to mend relationships, not break them apart. That being said, I can be stubborn if I think I am right, though I will allow others to be wrong if it’s something I view as trivial. 🙂

I don’t mind discussing things like politics, religion, etc however I never discuss these in open channels, only privately and only if someone asks me my thoughts or opinions. I do not typically start these conversations myself. Many people are unable to carry on a debate without succumbing to name calling or getting hurt feelings, so I only discuss these matters with friends I trust and respect. I don’t mind agreeing to disagree and continuing on with a friendship. If I feel someone is starting to take offense, or become uncomfortable, I stop the discussion.

I can handle adult humor, even participate in it from time to time. However there are lines I won’t cross. I know how to use the ignore functions rather than get butthurt over someone being ignorant and refusing to stop running their mouth. I believe it’s a choice to be offended. The only things that offend me are cruel comments about my family (sons and wife), that are direct personal attacks, and disrespect of women, such as calling them degrading names such as “cunt”. I will speak out in defense of both and expect leadership to step in to assist in dealing with it. I believe this is in line with your rules and regulations, or at least the spirit of it.

I’m not looking for any leadership roles. I’m looking for a place to make friends and have fun. 🙂 I hope you’ll accept me.
