Cranky People

Earlier today when I was at work, they asked me to go and take care of the person at the register, so I went over. I got her name so I could get her order and ring her up; but when I brought down the pizzas she yelled at me. She told me that she had more than two pizzas but what she didn't understand was all of the orders were on one ticket because it was all the same kind. After I got them all out she apologized and told me that she was having a bad day. I didn't think that was a very good excuse for treating me badly when I was trying to help her. Why are people so harsh to others when they're having a bad day?

I can only think of one reason and that's because of all the stress that has built up in them throughout the day. All day they've been dealing with things that didn't make them very happy and then all of a sudden when there's one more thing they explode. It isn't very fair of them to do that especially if you were trying to help them in the first place. A lot of times they want to get it all out of them and you just happen to be their target. If we can help to make someones life a little less stressful then maybe just maybe we will be able to see more happy people.
