Had a terrible day at work?

We all have bad days at work, don't we?

You must have encountered some bad days at work before, you know, those that drive you nuts, makes you wanna walk into your GM's office and tell him that you quit?

Well, I've had a terrible week at work.. (thank God it's Friday, almost thought that Friday wouldn't come). I have tried many a times to pen down my thoughts when I am frustrated at work but it never seem to work. Either I am too frustrated or too occupied wth work to write my blog.. when I am finally free (usually after work or weekends), I don't feel like dwelling into my memory bank for those frustrating moments again, just to write my blog..

Someone told me that there is no such thing as a terrible/ horrible day at work. He maintains that it is all in one's mind. To a certain exent this is true, but I maintain that there are worse days than others. Recently, I am feeling it more than ever.. I don't know if it's a sign that I am not enjoying my job anymore, or is it just a passing phase.. I am still trying to determine.

To quote a friend, "If you enjoy your work you do not have to work a day in your life.."

No matter how bad things seem to get, you can almost always imagine how things could be a LOT worse. That gets me through most of the bad stuff I face in life. For example, if you've had a bad day at work, remember that it could be worse by it being a bad year, or you could get fired, etc.

By understanding it's all in the mind, we achieve the unique ability to contain and manage our bad days. It works for me, but it did take some time to get used to. Mental discipline is like going to the gym, you have to build up stamina.

Hope you try, hope it works.
