in what way?

if you want to be ruth and dont wear pink shoes it is. more is better than less

I'm not ruthless, but sometimes in life you need to be. I'm learning to be like that with people who have been consistently horrible to me. I still don't like being that way, buy then why should i be nice to mean people?

Not always. Sometimes you have to be for self preservation. I'd find it hard to be ruthless as I'm a softhearted cow lol. But I can be in certain circumstance if it's deserved.

It depends on the situation. If it's a survival situation then it's entirely necessary sometimes.
These days unfortunately includes many work-based situations, e.g. if you know SOMEONE has to lose their job tomorrow and you know that you or your family will be in serious trouble if it's you... then you simply have to **** over your work buddy. I don't think there's ever any need to take pride (or worse, pleasure) in it though, not if it's someone who has never done you any harm that's caught in the cross-fire. |

I think its bad if you're ruthless all the time. I don't see a problem with being a little ruthless every now and again when needed.
|
Yeah there might be times you have to be a bit ruthless out of necessity, but you shouldn't bask in your ruthlessness or take any satisfaction from it

big difference between being hard or firm cause you got to me and being ruthless though. ruthless is stealing your ill home bound neighbours milk of the door step cause your too lazy to go to the shop lol
or saying your workmate is lazy so you get the promotion and he doesn't . having ago at someone isnt ruthless . |
Really depends on the situation

Ruthless is okay so long as you don't crap on people in the process because they remember it. Focused is better... unfortunately, and especially in my previous job, if you don't have a penis 'focused' is sometimes just seen as 'ruthless'.

Well I wouldn't say it's a very positive personality trait, it's best to get by on your merits but it's helpful if you can recognise it in others and make sure you keep one step ahead of their game.
