Haha, that's cool.I like eye contact, but the menacing kind is a lot of work.
During a deposition, the lawyer actually complained bitterly that I was trying to intimidate him. My lawyer responded by advising him not to look at me. That deposition cost me several thousand in legal fees, but at least I have fond memories of his whining about it....& it's in the transcript.
Normally I don't like eye contact, but if someone challenges me, I step up to the plate and keep my eyes on them without backing down.
That's actually kinda fun. When I was driving to the park the other day, there were some workers doing something there and one guy looked at me as I drove in. I looked at him, looked away and looked back, and realized that he was still looking, so I just looked him right in the eyes intensely for a few seconds until he looked away.
My confrontational skills are either totally on or totally off; I don't really know how to keep it moderate, so im normally pretty passive.
