    I was rude to someone on the phone this morning. I had explained several times why I wasn't interested in their job offer due to the time constraints - they wanted me to leave in 2 weeks out of state to do 2 weeks of training at corporate (all expense paid at least) and I just can't swing it due to family obligations and my current job.
    I lost my cool after the 3rd time I said no I wasn't interested and said "It appears you're either not listening to me or not comprehending what I'm telling you."

    That was not nice. I don't feel bad about it either, and that's also not nice.

    Was it @rickswifey83 offering you a job?

    No way, I'm always super nice when I have to call places. I worked in a call center as one of my first jobs, in collections, so I sympathize.

    My mother just called to tell me about my sister-in-law's horse that just died. Then she started going into all these details about mementos they took (cut a little mane off, etc). I am super soft-hearted about animals and could feel myself starting to get weepy here at work. I rudely cut my mom off and told her "not to call me about stuff like that at work". She got all offended so I had to explain why I cut her off. Then she tried to change the subject to take my mind off the horse and started asking me about this construction project south of town. I was like "how the f do I know?" Just leave me alone.

    Now her feelings are hurt and I will have to apologize.

    I learned from my extensive HR training that persistence pays off...I'll call again in 2 days..give em time to think it over

    Good idea, offer less money the next time you call too.

    Visualizing punching a patron in the throat. In my defense, he was being a HUGE kitten.

    Cleared a bunch of people I never interact with out of my friends list. Doing the same on all the social media accounts. Feels not nice, but feels good at the same time.

    My goal today is to NOT have a reason to post here!

    I work at a food co-op as a cashier. every time a customer doesn't unload their own basket, I secretly wish their bags rip and all the berries and grape tomatoes would fly out of their containers.
