Latin for "I will not serve".
Skimming through the wikipedia page, it is often attributed to Lucifer in context to not wanting to serve in heaven and concequently being kicked out.
If there is something I can't stand in this world it's people telling me what to do without giving me a good reason.
I am very much willing to do a lot of work if you can give me good reason to do so.
If there's a close second I despise it's when other people tell me to still act on the wishes of the incompetent first group.
Lovely thing about the second group of people is that they generally have arguments that are about as strong as those in the first category.
That is probably the best case scenario, the worst case scenario would be around the lines of the second group saying "They told you to work so you better work".
I can't think of easier ways to piss me off.
I honestly think it's downright sad to blindly do as you're told, would even go as far as calling it weak.
And I understand weakness most of the time, physically, for instance, I am not exactly strong either.
But if you never stand up to anything, you're not gonna get very far.
Other tedious thing about this is that the people in the second category often indirectly tell me to be inefficient in my work and not take any obvious shortcuts or tell me to do more work than I have to.
Though, as far as I can tell this is a sad reflection on those people themselves, since they work their ass off and get rewarded about as much as I do for sitting on my ass all day long and taking care of the things I actually need to get done or have a personal interest in.
