I got a former coworker an interview with my company. It was an IT job with an on-call rotation. During the interview, his phone chimes. Instead of apologizing and putting it on Silent, he pulls it out in the middle of the interview to type a reply. We ask what he’s doing and he says it is work, he’ll just tell them he’s got a flat tire or something.
He later admitted that he had just gotten back from vacation and was severely jet-lagged, but let’s just say he didn’t give them a great impression. My team elbowed me for years about that one guy that I got to interview for the team.

Good on you for being aware of it and attempting to be better.
Digging the proverbial hole with the shovel. (now, double down, OP.)
This describes me in literally every online argument I’ve ever had.
What helps me is remembering that some people aren’t worth being understood by.
My son is 11, and this is a daily… or even hourly occurrence.
That would be a perfect description of Trump
What do you mean by that?
Say or do something. Experience negative consequences. Rather than owning it or admitting you did wrong, double down and deny or continue doing the thing that got you into trouble.
Me getting banned from reddit for saying what child molesters deserve and then getting perma-banned for doing it again.
