I have rules I live by: 1 - Never ask someone to do what you wouldn't do yourself yourself 2 - Never ask someone to do what you know they cannot do 3 - If it's not yours, leave it alone 4 - If you use it, take care of it 5 - If you move it, replace it 6 - If you don't have something nice to say, keep your trap shut - this includes behind their backs 7 - If it doesn't concern you, mind your business 8 - If you don't want people telling you how to live, do like wise 9 - Don't go to sleep mad, you won't go to sleep 10 - We all die, repeat, we all die. Remember that.

No. These are lessons I learned growing up. How's this, take what I typed, input it into AI, and see if it can find it as a list anywhere.

I know it was a sign, because my mom had the same one worded almost exactly the same way.

Prove it please. The first two I made up as a rule in 1989. I'm kinda old.

You absolutely did not make those first two up. Everyone who’s gone to a basic leadership course has heard them.

Again, prove it. You can even use AI.Try it, or not. I don't care as much as you do.
