Doing a solid vs doing a favor.
Quote:
My thoughts are, doing a favor in expectation of a return is high covert manipulation. If you receive a favor, why wouldn't you want to return it? Well one reason would be...because it was contrived. Purposeful. Today we say, "He did me a solid." I believe it was George Costanza who said, "A favor is for free, a solid is a debt." If not, I could easily see him say it to Jerry. Giving or asking for favors with expectation is a tactic. A Clintonesque, measured and monitored sneaky way to gain. Gordon |
