I don't know what it is. But it's everywhere. I was fired from my job yesterday and for no really good reason. Granted, I was 'iffy' about working in a deli - smokehouse. Wondering what all those nitrites, high sodium foodstuffs, heavily preserved meats, etc., were doing to myself just handling them, working around them. (Up to my elbows in buffalo jerky for hours at a time.) So, I may not have stayed very long anyhow. But to be fired because one boss sent me up to the office to fill out (another) W4 form, and her husband (owner of the place) came down hopping mad because he had someone with him. said I made him look like a fool. I told him he didn't need my help for that and he said 'you have a bit of an attitude'. (No, I didn't but I was getting one as I watched him hop up and down in front of me.) So I admitted it and he said 'hit the clock, you're fired'. Now it's funny, but at the time I was stunned.
Anyhow, seems like everyone is on a hair trigger these days. And it's odd but the angrier everyone gets around me, the calmer it makes me. Don't know why but I guess I see how ridiculous it all is and maybe that's saving my sanity.
