Have you ever met a doctor, short order cook, WalMart employee, bus driver, or a Salvation Army Santa that acted like they were just bending over backwards to talk to you?
Why do people who don't like people, take jobs dealing with people? Everybody has bad days I know, but it takes an overall dislike of people to make someone feel guilty for asking about how your day is going. Its an art to convey the feeling "I AM PUT OUT AND MAD AS HELL" from 3 blocks away.
I have a cure for such people and it involves a 11 1/2 size shoe. Its a shame but such people dont usually get the fact it aint all about them until that shoe comes into play.
My point is, someone who takes a job they dont like, and makes sure everyone they deal with KNOWS they hate what they are doing, well they should get shoes.
Yea Nike!

Well let's think about it.
The Doctor probably became a Doctor because a parent was one or because they saw how much money Doctors make. Being nice to patients was never part of the plan.
The short order cook wants to be a cordon bleu chef. But didn't make it. So you must suffer now. He's saving to go to medical school anyway.
The Walmart employee either couldn't get a real job or is working there until the 'real job' arrives. Maybe he's saving to go Medical school.
The bus driver flunked medical school and ended up driving buses.
The Salvation army santa used to be Doctor but took to the drink, ended up on the street and was recruited by the Sally army as part of his rehab but has to stay off the beer for the month of December. You'd be grumpy too!

It doesn't matter what happens to you, the only thing that'll never let you down is attitude.
Failure to keep a good attitude is sponsoring your own defeat.
People that consciously cause themselves grief, on purpose, and then blame you for it...

maybe it's just you. Everyone is friendly to me.

Looks like we've got ourselves a happiness nazi.
I've been in countries where the people front no social air of happiness, it's refreshing. Hellos are rare and smiles are fleeting and sincere.

There's an irony to this post.
-
So... you wanna kick anyone who doesn't meet your customer service expectations?
That's funny, in a sad pathetic way.

You get that just travelling From the South to the North in this country...people almost too friendly down south almost to the point where it is fake....but much more pleasent then some places up north where you say hi to a stranger and their like "Yeah? Go f yourself!"

I know I'd like to invade every Sears customer service MANAGEMENT enter. I'd use non leathal CS grenades and such because I dont actually want these people dead, but it would be fun to torment them.
Then I'd like to get Sears' account number at citi bank and cash a check for...lets say 120 million. When they ask for it back I'm gonna say "my bad" the checks in the mail....but it may not be....and I may have sent you two checks by accident.....but I'm not sure....the person I hired to print my checks neither of us are allowed to talk to.....trust me the checks in the mail.

Saw, think about it.

Sorry Moot, I must be missing your point, think about? (I can't seem to be able to cope with "the day after" as well as when I was in my 20's...)
I do not beleive we were all born under the same conditions, or that we all have "choices" in our lives. We (western world) are pretty lucky to be able to have a choice, but it's not the case all around... like the children workers I posted the picture above.
or was it somehing else? :D

Tu petes pas les plombs, je te parle honnetement, ok :-)
There's no such thing as luck.
I didn't mean to make it sound as if it's always easy, that the right choice is just a snap of the finger away.
Using your brain and will is what enables better choices.
There's always a way to get what one wants.
Being born silver spoon or in the gutter makes no difference as to one's will to make the best decision as to what he wants.
To me that capacity is worth more than a fat inheritance, for example.

the choice to disobey...
And Jews had no choice but to lemming-line to camps?

My point is there'll always be a choice till you've had mind control implants hardwired into you.

That's all fine for us Moot, but what about Yussef (my brother ;)) who at the age of 8 had to start working in a factory to help feed his 12 brothers and sisters. Do you realy think he has a choice? (Besids leaving for a rave party and let his family die)

yeah.
The only thing we must do is die. Everything else is a choice among consequences.
