today is a really good day for me...
I adopted a rescue Bichon and I'm enchanted by this little dog. He is so good, such a gentleman, and so willing to please. He's loving and kind hearted. I've never had a little dog before in my life, but I am in love with this guy...
I'm the one with seperation anxiety...
Lucky you! I'd be excited too!
We lost our little Yorkie last summer. I still miss her. They can be so loyal, loving and fun. Congrats on the new family member!
In my job, I get cursed at almost every day. I have to keep from yawning when they do it. I don't take it personally because I understand their frustration most of the time, but it is always something totally out of my control. If it makes them feel better to curse at someone, then they can curse at me. I'm a big girl, I can take it.

I just got written up today. I am a very easy going, passive introverted individual. I always avoid confrontations of any sort. I suck it up and just let things be. But not today. I have a severe cold/cough/allergy funk on me I just don't feel like sucking it up anymore. So one of the parts delivery drivers comes looking for a part that I sold yesterday and was supposed to be pulled and ready for delivery. Someone told him that I had it, which I did not because all parts are pulled by another person. This person "forgot" to pull the part and the driver came up to me with a real nasty attitude, barking at me asking where was the part. At the same time, I am on the phone with a customer and the driver starts to curse at me. I put the customer on hold, got up and walked up to him and told him to "never speak to me in that effing tone of voice". He continued to curse at me and came closer with his hand pointed at my face. I walked up to him even closer, smack his hand out of my face and told him a few things and came this close from tearing his head off. This guy has been talking to me like crap for some time now.
Everybody was awed because they know the kind of person I am so they were very surprised. The funny thing I had spoken to the wife 15 minutes before the whole thing happened and I told her I had a feeling I was going to "have it out" with someone today. So I got called to the office and the boss told me he knows the type of person I am and that he didn't expect me to act in a unprofessional way and that it could have been handled a different way.
After signing the write up, I took a walk to 7-11 and had a RedBull. I am happy now and having a wonderful day but still feel sick.
How's everyone's day going?

Frankly, I'm glad you did what you did. Why is it always ok for everyone else but not for us. I always take it but never dish it!! I hate that about myself. If I do try to defend myself I always end up feeling like I hurt their feelings and there is always some consolation after I blow up. People can be so freaking rude and uncaring, it drives me nuts That's why I end up with stress and anxiety and illness, I think!!
