Keep it up, wolf dog. I enjoy your threads.

If I were you... I would get your compatriots singing a few rounds of... "SOUND OFF" ... I would think that should liven things up.

I'd be kinda suspicious if someone is being happy that you're returning a busted product too. Sometimes service with a smile, we're using different definitions of service.

There aren't many people alive who don't compare themselves with others. It's part of our nature and responsible for some of our successes and many of our failings. Anything left unchecked can become a negative force in our life.

Don’t compare yourself to others, compare yourself to what you were yesterday. Always try to be better than the day before. The only bad day was yesterday...today’s a new day. Yeah I twisted the words around a little, but you get the drift. Every day at the gym I push for one more rep, or set, or increase in weight. Every year I push for one more catch or more than last year. I don’t compare myself to y’all, I’m only as good as me, lol.
I’m with ya Wolfie, my boss has been called because I didn’t get upset when they told me off and what they think of my company. I just smiled and said, “Yeah I think of them that way too at times.” Some folks just like being miserable. You just do you and it’ll rub off.

Not only do I get the drift but I also recognize that playing competitive sports had a role in getting there.

I remember one job I had that was so depressing that I decided to bring a little humor to lighten up the atmosphere . I started walking stiff armed like a mummy moaning and groaning . Needless to say I got fired . Funeral directors just have no since of humor .

I just don't get it I guess, the whole making others miserable. Like when my depression is beating me like the coked out chimp it is the very last thing in my mind is "hay lemme go make this random persons day just as miserable" just plain don't compute
