Why am I so impatient with other people's lack of patience?
    #10117635 - 04/06/09 03:46 PM (14 years, 11 months ago)

Today I became aware of how impatient I am with other people's lack of patience...what do you guys think about reacting impatiently to other people's impatience?

By the way, I have been dwelling on patience and acceptance a lot lately, and they seem to have to do with not forcing my desires/wishes on situations.

Ah! A paradox!

It annoys me too. It helps if you just start viewing everybody as small retarded children. How can you be mad at small retarded children?

I was helping this lady today at the counter and every time I told her what needed to be done with her computer she'd scoff and say, "that's bullshit".  I ended up going full robot mode and made the dept. $70 off of her. 

"We need your computer for a few days to properly diagnose the issue."

"Bullshit"

"That's $69.99+ tax"

"You guys tax THAT too?  Bullshit"

"The gov't taxes it, not us.."

"Oh.  Still bullshit."

"Why can't does this keep popping up every time I hit "Send mail""

"Because Outlook is your default mail client"

"Bullshit"

I definitely think impatience is or can be contagious...compassion seems to stop the spreading though.
