Get over yourself.

So this is a form of control? People who do this are TRYING TO CONTROL me?

Do they not see something fucking wrong with that?
No, they don't think about it. It's mostly instinctual because they are in a superior position and therefore implicitly expect a servile attitude.

By the way this bemusement definitely rules out E8 as your enneagram type. Like beyond any shadow of a doubt. Seriously. Look at E3 or E6 pleeeaaaase.

So essentially there's nothing wrong with telling employers "I cannot be controlled?" I'm under the impression that's a huge turnoff to a lot of employers because I've been conditioned to think I need to learn how to "bend over" and be submissive when this is something that is physiologically impossible for me to do unless I feel like dealing with neuroses and gerd. Its the reason I feel as if I've been FORCED into the entrepreneurial world.
No you definitely don't want to say that to employers. What you should do is just maintain your own boundaries while proving that you can do the work better than others without being a robot. Also maybe read Ayn Rand for consolation
