I dont compete unless I know I will win and I dont bet on anything unless I know I will win.
I have a few good friends that know me well enough that if I am willing to put money on something they back off.

At work a few years ago they decided to have a big summer cook off and the people that came up with it had me in mind when the did it.
When they found out I wasn't interested they were flabbergasted.
I'm not t team player I dont follow other peoples rules and I do things my way when I want to.
The very idea of having a cooking contest with silly safety rules and plans goes against every thing I am.
