Ignorance is an Occupational Hazard

Have you ever had one of those days? One where you have to tell yourself that you're better than those around you or fall to pieces? One where the words coming out of the mouths that surround you make your mind blank while trying to understand the stupidity? I try to be a person that values those people that I keep as company...someone who holds myself to a high standard...unfortunately when at work you don't always have that option. Every once in a while I stumble upon someone who just amazes me with the level of ignorance they have encroached upon. I'm not talking about the user who can't tell the difference between logging into the computer and logging into email, or the user who has their bank account name and password on a sticky note under their keyboard. Those people are what keep my job going. I'm more annoyed by the petty nonsense that comes out of no where for no apparent reason. Complaints about little things like "your mail was in my mailbox and I refuse to be responsible for what happens to it" are very kindergarten "He put his crayon on my desk so threw it away" type of mentality. It drives me INSANE! Or complaints about what happens in the office of someone else.....or "hey I have this problem at home which has absolutely nothing to do with this place or my job but I think you should help me fix it." Not my problem people. So those are just my two cents. Sorry if this makes little to no sense at all, but sometimes a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do to make it in the modern world!
