Day 8- Something You Hate
I am really trying not to HATE anything. I dislike cooked spinach, I dislike my weight. But I can/am change/changing the weight.
I also dislike people who make everything an emergency. They forgot the deadline until it is 2 hours from now. Call me in a panic, "Can you get it done?" Most of the time, I can if . . . IF I drop everything I am doing now, and you have it to me NOW. UNLESS there are 13 others who like you forgot even after I sent you a reminder, after I called you to say it is due next week. Most of the time I will even try to help you organize if there is time before the deadline.
Is that being to nice? I am feeling lately that it is. I am wondering if they don't take what I do seriously. It does take brains, and time to sort through all the information they have. It takes paper, ink, printers, computers, printers talking to computers, computer programs, and NO virus's or other bad mojo happening to my equipment to make it possible. It takes the power not going out at a key moment when I haven't saved! It also takes a puppies with a short attention spans to STAY in OUR yard when out for a potty break!
So yes, I will help if I can. I just wish people were conscious enough of the time it takes to do the work. It takes them 3 to 4 hours just to organize, why would I be able to go through their information in 10 minutes?
Another thing I dislike - people with moods that flip from happy to depression in less than the blink of an eye and all I did was smile at them! Sorry to you for having such a crummy life that you have to scowl back when I am smiling at you. AND - just because I smile at you guys - you know who you are - I AM NOT HITTING ON YOU! Tell your wife she wants you, and go HOME!
Got off on a tangent there, sorry.
