I don't know how I did it before quitting dope. No wonder I did dope....just to cope with the idiots.

my sobriety has been an exercise in patience and tolerance
It absolutely drives me nuts sometimes
one example is when I was working....some people are held to extremely high standards while others wallow in stupidity, ignorance, incompetance and are allowed to keep their jobs.......not to mention the general public sometimes
There are some things in life and in this world I will never understand...
I do have to look at myself though and make sure I keep my side of the street clean....

Truth, facts and reality run counter to feel-good "works well with others"

Being "programmable" is considered more desireable than having an ability to think

I never understood that AA/NA slogan. I always really hated janitorial work of any kind.

Look at it this way...
A complete moron, at least you know what you are working with.
An in-complete moron...you never know one day to the next what kind of person you are working with.

A guy at work who I would stay away from... One day he asked me..Why don't you like me?
So I repeated something he said the very first day I met him.
No really...why don't you like me?
So I repeated what he had said the second time I had seen him.
Opps! Sorry but really...Why don't you like me?
So I repeated what he had said another time.
Oh! I am so sorry for saying that but really...why don't you like me?
He said it that last time with attitude...so

"Because you are a moron."

*now with a raised voice*
What? I am a MORON?

Yes you are. You are a MORON!

I guess he got it because he walked away...either that or the look on my face said to him...I better move before he hits me. *LOL*

I only worked with one moron but many stupid people along with him. *LOL*

There were a few nice ones as well.
