Angry trappers catch less critters

Angry fishermen catch less fish

Angry hunters harvest less game

Angry people live shorter lives

Angry people are no fun

Avoid angry people!!!!!

I bet they straighten right up when you say that. lol

I do similar when someone chews me for trapping in certain places in the ROW. Totally legal here, but they still get ticked. I keep calm and talk in a super sickeningly, friendly manner while explaining they are SOL. Nothing makes them madder. LOL

There's always someone out there trying to wipe the smile off your face. Refuse to be manipulated by them.

I confess I got a bit mad today when I found out a chicken had crapped in my shoe. Can't keep the dumb birds out of my shop. But it's pretty funny too.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

Yep.
I got angry as all get out the other day at work. It had to do with required training not getting done which is critical for my new coworkers to do their job. A lot of balls were dropped by management, so I made a few phone calls and plainly made my case and dropped some vulgar sentence enhancers in the mix, but made sure that this was not directed at the manager specifically, but something needed to get done ASAP before we start losing employees due the lack of getting this training done.
Guess what? the training got scheduled for next week.

not necessarily.

I spent most of my 30's being angry, and not really knowing why.

later, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea, and started using a CPAP machine. My wife says that made me a lot easier to live with.

About the same time, I turned back to God.

They usually slump down in shame and agree with shame.

I do the same as you anywhere I trap. I look at them and try to give them the "doesn't everyone know this" look.

I love people.
