Sometimes you would come across an interestingly ridiculous person in an organization who would show visible reluctance and resistance to following processes he is supposed to follow.
He would say that something is not applicable to him and in the same breath also add that he doesn't understand that thing.
That's complete non-sense -how can you say that something is applicable or not applicable unless you understand that thing in the first place?
This kind of a situation is all the more surprising when this person is in a higher grade. Such a person is actually a senior only by grade but not by attitude and mental level.
The resistance and reluctance by such a character would come to the forth in various ways:
Remember, you are luckily not like this sick man (and must thank God that you are not such an ass-like pest, SP) and hence you should certainly handle things with maturity.
How to handle SP is a challenge for anyone.
You should stay focused on your interest and not position and negotiate accordingly.
Handling SP, who is an ass-like pest, is surely a great personal learning.
You might go through interesting situations.
The situation might be even more interesting if the person the big SP reports into is another character who thinks highly of himself and is very immature.
The manager of the big SP is a man who acts as if he knows everything and is the only one who cares about the company and also that he is the man who runs the company.
The man who knows everything (MK) is another challenge that makes things interesting.
Though this person MK is a silly guy he is in a position of power and you need to act smartly to keep yourself safe.
The situation gets even much more interesting because the man you are forced to report into is another funny character.
This man is a pesky pest (PP) and a crook beyond any limit.
He is a person who would smile in front of you but would do a lot of non-sense behind your back.
This man PP is where he is due to his blind loyalty to the top dog.
He enjoys his position and creates non-sense by not sharing anything and also taking actions without informing you.
In such a company where you have characters like SP, MK, PP it is but natural to expect reluctance and resistance to processes.
The SPs, MKs, PPs are really the symptoms of the widespread malaise of sick corporate culture in such organizations.
You must still do your best so that the right things happen.
So brace up.
Be ready for the show down.
And just get, set, go.

The resistance and reluctance by such a character would come to the forth in various ways:
- He pretends to be the busiest person in the company (quite funnily busier that the CEO himself!). The other funny thing is that this person is not handling anything critical like delivery operations but non-core things like accounts payable for the company.
- He doesn't give time for discussions, giving one after another lame excuse. Then he says that the other side has delayed the entire thing. Such behavior is a clear indication of the fact that this man is playing stupid games and acting in a funny and even dangerously silly manner. It also shows that this man has complete lack of maturity.
- He writes funny emails shifting his responsibility and work on to others. He would write things like "I am not going to approach anyone" which shows two things - one, he does not take ownership of the matters at hand and two, he is highly rigid, opinionated and with a closed mind.
- He may be incompetent and hence not able to finish his work on time and thus ends up putting up unnecessary resistance and reluctance to shirk any additional work. He may essentially be a shirker and someone who doesn't want to put in his bit.
- He lacks any understanding of organizational requirements and hence doesn't support organizational initiatives. He would pose to be expert in a field of which he doesn't even know the ABC.
- He cites illogical and silly reasons for why something is not applicable. And that too when he doesn't know the ABC of that he says is not applicable.
- He has empty haughtiness and arrogance about himself. The underlying reason might be his low self-esteem about himself. He knows that truly speaking he is a complete ass and a buffoon but to have a sense of grandeur he poses to be something much bigger than what he really is, a pesky, little corporate insect.
- He puts up unreasonable requests and send unjustifiable emails just to show he is supreme. However, in front of his manager he is a very lowly creature.
- He is a man who has become too big for his own boots and carries a sick attitude. He walks past you as if you don't matter. He shows as if he is the boss when he also clearly knows he is a pesky pest-like character. He ignores you to get a sense of self-worth.
