Argument

I had dinner with my host today. However, it was heated up and sound like a big argument in the restaurant. All eyes on us. What actually happened was a discussion of my host career and life. I tried to brainstorm some of the decision he made in life. However, it took a sharp turn when I told him he can be replaced if the company made some major decision. I was trying to let him know the good and bad side of his decision especially in making other people aware that he is very important and indispensable.

I may had put the word wrongly and I could sensed his ego was bruised. He started to think I was making judgement on him hence I asked questions which may oppose to his actions. However I was trying to brainstorm so that he aware of the consequences for sounding arrogant. In the end he ended up defending and I was trying to make my own point as well. I do not think I was giving him a counseling but sharing my own experience with him. The outcome was loud debate in a tiny restaurant. He told me later many eyes were looking at us, but I told him I wasn't feeling shy. We are merely getting our point across. I guessed next time I will not discuss such heavy subject on a dinner table.
