Some people need to push others down so they can push themselves up I guess. There are people aren't happy unless their miserable.
Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

I wonder if extra grumpy people are a regional thing? I've noticed that certain parts of the Country have different attitudes and mannerism. I even know of two neighboring towns that have different personalities. One of the towns (population about 2000) is the friendliest town with the most helpful people I've ever encountered, the next closest town Pop. 3000), about 40 miles away, is full of clannish stuck-up folks.

I just found a list of the "happiest" States, versus the least happy.
Hawaii ranked #1 Mississippi ranked #44 West Virginia ranked #50 as least happy.

The last line of your post. "Or do people just wanna make eveyone feel as bad as they do?" Fixed it for you. Just keep on being YOU, and let them stew in their own mess. Charlie

I love it when the person behind the county is cheerful. Or the waitress who actually talks to you jokes around and listens beyond just taking your order.. Adding that human touch makes you a better employee.
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

When we were travelling through the States a lot when the kids were young I remember thinking how sweet the servers were at restaurants in Georgia but how mean as nails folks were on the highway through Atlanta. Man that was a nice place to see in your rear view mirror.

The number #1 way to steal your joy; Compare yourself to others.
WD, In ministering to folks, I typically find it's not the day's circumstances that get people grumpy, it's what they compare themselves to that leads them to continual unhappiness.
You seem not to do that as often and that is healthy for your soul.
Blessings, Mark

Flipping the coin , I have personally found being extra nice while visiting the motor vehicle department helps you a lot. Most DMV employees are used to grumpy customers as things generally don't go very smoothly there for most as they are unaware of the process and knowable of having the proper paperwork filled out with their 'I's dotted and 'T's crossed. Being nice there will make you one of the few smiling faces they deal with every day. Sometimes they may even bend the rules a tiny bit instead of acting like the 'Soup Nazi'

In virginia the grouch line follows the blue ridge mountains. East of the blue ridge the people are terrible. West of the blue ridge different story. I spend a fair bit of time in Page county.
