gewing Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Re: The cranky thread speaking of chocolate.. has anyone else tried the new drinking chocolate at Starbucks? Chocofino, IIRc.

Given it is you, it is probably agreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life can be a tricky road, the curves and ice patches can throw you in the ditch in a hurry. I can be very judgemental, but there are many issues that it really doesn't matter what I think about. Even to me, really. I Can only think about some of the mistakes I have made in my life. SOme of the people I have hurt... Many of the things I did that hurt people were really aimed at myself. I didn't really feel I deserved what I had, or might be able to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to your job, you don't mean you lost it, do you? I thought you were complaining that your boss was unjustly discplining you. Given all the things we've heard, that fell in line, and so I think many just felt it was more of the same, and many (sometimes including me) feel like they don't want to react to every single post, it's a fine line between being supportive and just appearing to be a "me, too" or to lose "credibiltiy" (I don't know if that's quite the right word) by appearing to just chime in always, regardless of who or why. Regardless, I am sorry about your job situation (and sorrier if you're without a job situation any more). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though my stuff is not in the place it should be if everything was 1000% tidy, I can still find something pretty quickly, even if it has been over a year since I last saw it.

Interestingly enough' date=' I try to be as neat and organized at work, while my bedroom is constantly in disarray.[/quote'] I am pretty good at work, and if things start to get bad, I stop and clean my desk even if it takes "too much" time compared to seemingly more urgent matters (within reason of course), while at home I'm similar to you. However, for me, it's been a very long evolution of improving gradually. I used to have a terribly messy desk, and while I thought it was manageable, I found that if it did get out of control it became that much harder to clean and detracted from my ability to get things done, both psychologically and physically. So I got better and better at organizing. Things going increasingly electronic helped as well in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
