When work becomes more than you can take

A huge part of maintaining a good reputation at work is to keep your cool at all times. As much fun as it is to throw things, yell at people, and even drop an F-bomb from time to time, the best thing you can do for yourself is just remain calm......unfortunately it's one of the hardest things for me.

I know that no one at work will kill you. No one's allowed to smack you around. The worst thing that can happen is that people will act like obnoxious unfair jerks, your hard work won't be rewarded, you'll be bored, you'll be under-compensated or you will eventually be fired.

While all of these are terrible things, they won't, most likely kill you unless you let them get to you so much that you act out in other ways which can be detrimental to your health.

Bad work can make you stop sleeping, drink/eat too much, shop to relax...it's all connected.

The next time you realize work is seriously bringing you down focus on the fact that no matter what, it will be ok, the day will end and you will go home.

Sometimes that's all you need.
