When was the last time you had a BAD DAY?

I decided to make a title in a rhetorical question. Let's not be pessimistic; unless you always have a bad day (which is unlikely, I supposed). I think most everybody could relate to this so called "bad day". It's not the day itself which is bad; it's about the events or situations which happened that day which made it not so friendly.
I ended up fighting with almost everybody today. I don't know, for some reasons, I can't get my message across the way I want them. I ended up misinterpreted and misunderstood. Language is very complicated. And when you start NOT speaking, that's when it gets more complicated. Why can't people understand that you're nor speaking because you just have nothing to say, nothing to share. Silence means something to them which in truth is, it doesn't mean anything to you at all. You just want to be silent, not utter anything and that's all. Why is human communication very difficult?In short, I ended up in an argument because they want me to say something and when I said something, that's when I got several violent reactions. What the heck do these people want me to do?
To make it short and a little inspiring for readers, I just view it this way: this is no different when someone lost his job, when someone spilled coffee in his suit while all dressed up for an interview, when someone missed his very important flight, when someone got mugged (thank God, I haven't experienced that), when someone sh** his pants, when someone forgot his lines while delivering his speech, etc. Neither one of those I mentioned is funny, right (well of course in exemption with when you sh** your pants because the thought of it makes me laugh)?The bottom line is, these things aren't permanent. They last one or two days and we forget them. They made us angry, laugh at ourselves and even made us cry in desperation. But whatever it is, isn't it lesson learned? I want you know your views. Would you like to share them?

I am very sorry for you. I hope your condition is far better now, if not, a little better than before. Like I stated in my paragraph, these things are not made to last. Not all the time that you will experience those. I do not suggest that you forget them all at once. Instead, make them your motivation to aspire for something better, something greater.. You deserve a better life. You just need to figure out how to make things happen for you.

last week, im not sure if its a monday or tuesday, my boss approached me and told me that our previous supplier who lost the bidding i conducted ws complaining and saying I was not fair in conducting the bid, and she is complaining on the things i did, she seems to be saying i should have done this and that, when it is my prerogative to do this or that, she has no right to interfere with how i conducted the bidding because as the purchasing officer, i can use several strategies which i may think is appropriate for the bidding,i followed the rules and regulations, if she "feels" there were some grey areas on what happened, then that is her opinion, but what she did was, she complained to the finance director who immediately said our department need to conduct another rebidding because the bidding was a failure, my boss said the finance director did not even ask her opinion on what happened, she just concluded immediately and sided with the supplier. i am new in the company and i was so afraid that they would kick me out. nice thing about it is that my boss got all the info she needs to say that we followed by the book and there were 4 bidders and the lowest bidder won the bidding and she said it is not grounds for me to be terminated, whew thank goodness

Hello,
I actually have bad days just about everyday, a bad day for me is when everything is boring and nothing exciting ever happens. I sort of don't really know why, but that is just what happens to me. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!
