Every time I think about going into work.

I'm at a point in my life where I am no longer willing to put up with the corporate bullshit.

I just wanna do my job and be left alone.

Unless you're willing to actually compensate me for it, I am no longer willing to "help".

I work with the general public. I always go to work expecting the worst, so when I have a day that's relatively normal I'm pleasantly surprised.

I work in international freight for a mega corp, a few years back I was offered a position on days (I'm currently 3rd shift) with the promise of better hours, lower quotas, andquicker chance at promotion.

Day shift - spending all day on the phone getting yelled at by idiots who used a crayon and a napkin to hand write a bill of lading, and now are furious that I won't break multiple federal and international laws to get their fucking crate of plastic trinkets across the border.

Night shift - processing international shipping documents while listening to podcasts and audiobooks. 1 or 2 drivers call per night with issues that require 1 maybe 2 phone calls to resolve, generally resolved in less than 30 minutes and almost always I only speak with other knowledgeable professionals in the industry.

Now that the promotion is just around the corner, the extra two years I spent on nights was worth my sanity.

Sometimes. It makes me wonder it it's just a self-fulfilling prophecy, since I'm already annoyed and thus more perceptible to being pissed off.

If I wanted to read my e-mails out loud, I'd record that and attach the .mp3 file. There is almost never a reason to call me.

I don't get that way. I stay that way.

No? Is that common?

You're correct. For example, me or my wife get "pre-annoyed" at the other. We are always in the wrong when we do it and it takes a couple of grown ups to understand that. I don't agree with the childish mentality that you are in the right for being an asshole. Like, just treat people with respect and don't take your ish out on other people. When you find yourself aggressive towards someone before they say anything, you are in the wrong and should reexamine your life.
