I don't believe it gives me that right. My stuff is no one else's but mine. I feel the compulsion sometimes to react unpleasantly towards others because i'm human. but giving in to it would be projecting which is something i need to resist, and usually can.
I have worked in some form of customer service my whole life, and hospitality for nearly 15 years. There is little more frustrating then a someone in a bad mood taking it out on you for no other reason then they know they can get away with it because you have to "take it" or risk your job.
Bad moods happen. I get it. I have bad moods too. But that is not a license to be an asshole.
A strategy could be to address your own unpleasantness and not buy into another’s. Either way both unpleasantness and pleasantness are responses of the ego to presented situations.
I believe you have every right to feel the way you feel. How you act in response to that feeling is up to you, but other people also have every right to respond to your mood appropriately. You may feel justified in your actions but you likely won't win any friends if you are too grouchy. Try as I might, my feelings get the best of me occasionally. Sometimes I just need to vent, even though I know I will regret it later.
I'm only human. I have been on both sides of this one.
Me too! I try not too but it doesn't always work...
@Donna_I yep, me too.
I’m always unpleasant whether it’s a good day or a bad day.
That has not been my experience with you pet.
You must have an occasional day when your pleasant. Maybe not.
I would say "yes".....be as un-pleasant as you like...cuss, scream, call people harsh names.....just do it in the privacy of your own mind and don't spred the infection around. A good total bust out is good for what ails you...
Of course not! We're adults and should be able to manage our state!
Not really but look up cantankerous curmudgeon.
And is the treasonous groper's face there?
@LucyLoohoo no, when it comes to Agent Orange I believe Rex Tillerson was right
it makes it hard to be pleasant. So being unpleasant is easier when you have a bad day
Sometimes the grief overwhelms a persons perspective for a day and they just make the grief greater by their actions.It may not be easy but the people I have come to admire are those people who we say have a stiff upper lip regardless of what comes at them.
