Walking down the only road I've ever known!

Are you like a duck, looking like you're calm on top of the water and paddling like crazy below.

Or are you all batshit crazy.

I like to think I'm a duck.

My eldest son always says I'm like a Swan.

I don't think I'm anywhere near that grateful in a crisis but I like that he thinks that

This, have had to master the art of appearing to be in control so mass panic doesn't break out among the minions

I aspire to be a swan, all serene and classy, but in reality I am probably more like Beaker from the muppets!

I'm a duck swimming in circles and seem to be getting no where at times everytime I straighten up something whacks me again and it's back to circles again the last year. But hopefully there's land close by and I'll be able to waddle up on that and relax for a while.

I remain calm and unruffled. Mostly because I haven't actually realised there is a crisis going on.....

This is me too! Put on a brave face in front of others. Hope to seem in control, but probably not as effectively as I think x

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

In a real crisis... like life or death... duck all the way.

The rest of the time... bat.

I have always functioned well in a crisis and done some critical roles, and been in situations that have blown peoples heads up, metaphorically speaking. I just seem to go into a zen like state and work through the problem. Perhaps I'm just in denial.......This can't be f^$king happening!!..

I'm the fat duck that doesn't ever go in the water and instead just lies at the side of the lake watching the other ducks going round in circles and occasionally waddles around hassling everyone for bread.

I'm definitely a duck, crisis means I focus and get shiy done. But there's the inevitable burn out once the crisis has run it's course.

I've been described as cold by the majority of my family. But funnily enough it's me who they turn to when there's a crisis though

I thrive but I just go quiet and, so I'm told by colleagues, quite scary. I think it's because I'm normally quite laid back when nothing's happening..it's a big change.

It depends what the crisis is. ( I’m in one right now, and I’m aware of it, my head is above water).

Others, when there’s crisis’ around me, I’m rather good at dealing with stuff.

I've dealt with several serious first aid emergencies this year and I was a duck. I'm proud of that.

When it comes to my own crises I'm still ducklike with occasional batshit moments. (bat)

I’m a duck! I’m extremely calm in times of crisis, but probably because I’ve dealt with that many I don’t even bat an eyelid now!

im a Duck thats asleep,, no paddling like crazy,, or more like the Cadburys bunny,, chill,

First tip i got when training as a chef,, the more people that fill the restaurant the slower we go,, no mistakes, they will wait at least 20 minutes,didnt make sense when hearing it for the first time, but a sendback sends the whole crew into meltdown and the night becomes hell,

Looosing ones shite in a crisis adds up to more of a mess,, calm and steady is the way to go.
