What a Way to Start the Week
I love being in a good mood. I like being that guy who doesn’t get grumpy, the guy you can count on for a humorous quip at just the right time. Getting mad or annoyed or frustrated just isn’t any fun. I try to keep a rosy outlook as much as possible.
But the day has barely started and I’m already annoyed.
First, it’s freezing in here. I can’t feel my toes.
Second, I’ve already received two phone calls from a very rude guy who wouldn’t be nearly so frustrated if he would just RTFM. I’ll take responsibility if I screw up, but if you’re rude to me because you’re too stupid or stubborn to read the instructions that I worked so hard to prepare for you, I will quickly take to disliking you. I just know he’s going to go whining to my boss. That’s not a problem for me because I know my boss is with me on this issue. But that means my boss will have to deal with this guy, thus putting a damper on his Monday morning.
I’m on the lookout for number three, since these things tend to come in trios. I suppose the good news is that once number three hits I’ll be done, because these things never come in fours or fives. Uhh, right?
I think I can actually see my breath…
