Is Greg an IDIOT?!?!?!

IF you answered yes, then you would be right.

Last night I let my job and a couple of the shitty people that work there get to me. I lost my cool and did something completely irrational. I punched a concrete wall. I also broke my hand because of said punch to concrete wall. I am an IDIOT. I am fairly embarrassed, so please be gentle when you tell me what a MORON I am.

Hope you don't need an op to fix your broken hand. We get quite a few people with similar injuries coming through the recovery room getting their bones put back in place.
I'm with Christy, is it a man thing?!!!

I don't even know how to gently call someone a moron.

Smooth move?
Way to go?
The short bus...?
(I'm now giggling...)

There you go, now you got me giggling like a school girl at work. All bets are off :-)

Greg, first of all, it takes a MAN to admit a mistake or an error. You are ahead of the curve there.

Secondly, name me a job where you do not want to punch the lights out of a co-worker (or two) and a supervisor (or two). You can't, can you? Your feelings are not unusual. We are human beings.

How you react to those feelings... That is where we have some control. True, punching the wall was not the best idea in the world. I suppose you can say that at least you did not hit a co-worker, or a supervisor! That's one way to look at it..

What I have to tell myself in these situations is that "they will win". I tell myself that over and over. If the person who I want to lash out at is still there talking to me, I keep repeating "they will win" in my head until the they sound like Charlie Brown's Teacher.

Mwa-mwah-ma-mwa-mwah....

I can not say that will work for you, but it does for me.

hahahaha. Definetly a man thing. My husband did that too (although it was a fridge) about 5 years ago. Broken hand. We made up an elaborate lie revolving around him triping over one of the dogs becuase the truth was just too embarassing.

sorry to you!

Damn. I read a book a few years ago that referred to cheap privately-run prisons in California that have styrofoam walls. Too bad they don't have that in your county. At least when it comes time to punch a wall.
