It was never, the "you're fired" or "you'd better get a grip", but more just people concerned, apologizing or asking why. It actually deepened a number of relationships. I'm betting you are really nice most of the time, so when you blow, people take notice and really think about it. Not necessarily a bad thing especially if they are behaving badly. The bible does not condemn anger as an emotion. Jesus broke up those money changers in the temple by turing over tables and cracking a whip! I'd say he kind of "lost it" there, but in a righteous way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-76135690465718309102008-11-20T06:22:00.000-08:002008-11-20T06:22:00.000-08:00Hey man, every now and again you have to let the H...Hey man, every now and again you have to let the HULK loose!

I think, after the rude lunch lady that one time, and all the ridiculous themes they make you go through and the fact that it took 20 minutes for everyone to decide what to order, they deserved a little rage.

Unfortunately, this adage seems to be true much of the time.<BR/><BR/>It was nice of them to realize they had blundered and thank you. Sounds like that was a little apology in disguise. Remember, even SuperG is allow to loose it once in awhile!Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04290126384874472887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-44462967475485660792008-11-19T15:48:00.000-08:002008-11-19T15:48:00.000-08:00Ha!

Nobody in my office ever lets on that they're going out to pick something up, or they will have a dozen additional orders.<BR/>Just last week I was going to Subway and one lady caught me. I told her to write down on a sticky exactly what she wanted and what toppings. She put "w bread". Well, shoot, does the w mean "wheat" or "white", and you guessed it, I picked the wrong bread. <BR/>But, on the receiving side, I love having somebody go get the lunch for me too. I like being waited on...tee hee.Minnesota Nicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02170043587010711783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-10875166239890514342008-11-19T14:45:00.000-08:002008-11-19T14:45:00.000-08:00You know it's important when you lose it if everyo...You know it's important when you lose it if everyone THANKS you for it afterward. <BR/><BR/>I am this close to losing it myself, trying to get through to a person who can HELP ME at the Arizona Department of Transportation. (Long story, but I tried fixing this very problem five years ago with approximately the same level of rage--and non-resolution.)Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11102524397278597786noreply@blogger.com
