Buffetting : Being Assessed

I personally like it when I listen to comments about myself from the 3rd party rather from the 1st.

It's much more direct, and probably less buttery and sugary additives compared to 1st hand information, especially when it comes to impressions.

So the family was sharing a night out in Rakuzen when we celebrated the Mom's birthday, and we were talking about another business associate named Uncle Boss.

Apparently he was quite fond of me, stating me as Honest, Modest, Polite, Respectful.

Considering, my elder sis was the one he usually deal with in the company compared to me.
 thank goodness there's no more feud.

This was surprisingly delightful, because this associate is pretty well-known among the people in the industry for his eccentric personality, extreme pickiness in his acquaintances as well as stubbornness and intolerable cooperation. Hence, getting a good impression from him is apparently something quite big.

Heck, my dad keeps on saying that he asked for my name whenever they have their teas.

Oh well, guess we are being assessed all the time. I normally deal with people very nicely, until they show their true colors and be a pain in the ass, I'll show them who snipes best.

So have you been told that you are somebody or something lately?
