Worst on the First is a monthly review of the most outlandish things that made me question my sanity from the prior month. Am I losing my mind or am I just a voice of reason?
It is that time. Time for me to reflect on all of the things that made me question my sanity in March. So many things make me question so many things all month long. I haven’t even begun to scratch the surface in my posts. I am hoping to have more time to share more things, but for now, what was the most irrational? Help me figure it out by casting your vote at the end.
Drive Thru; The Express Lane of the Bank:
This post is about how the convivence of the drive thru is being ruined by the inconsideration of the lazy. Drive thrus are designed for quick, simple transactions. There should be rules at the bank, pharmacy, and fast food establishments similar to the 10 items or less rule at the grocery store. There are some transactions that are too lengthy or complicated to be done in the drive thru. Be courteous to the people behind you and get out of your car.
People are often clogging up the drive thru at the bank or pharmacy screaming personal information thru a two-way speaker. With identify theft being a common occurrence, not only is this not smart, but it is being a jerk to the person behind you. So few people nowadays take the time to think about how their actions effect others. Am I the only one who gets infuriated at someone saving themselves a few minutes at the expense of others?
Saturday Morning Frustrations:
Oh the frustrations of a day going from bad to worse. That is what is one is about. Waking up on your day off with a full day of plans and not getting to one thing on your to do list. So many things can throw a monkey wrench in your day. It is all the more frustrating when you warn people about things to come, they tell you that you are wrong, then everything you predicted comes true. And things are even more irritating when you are the only one inconvenienced in the whole scenario.
Co-parenting is definitely a challenge and can get to the best of us. When there is strong animosity between two usually rational adults, rationality can sometimes go right out the window. I am usually one to write about things that make me ask myself if I am crazy even though I think I am having very logical thoughts. When I question my sanity, I ask where I have gone wrong in my thinking. But this post, well, this one is just me venting. You probably should not vote for this one at the end.
Saturday Afternoon Frustrations:
This one is about when you think that your day has been complete crap, but then it turns to shit. This is pretty much a sequel to my temper tantrum earlier that day. I enjoy sharing my experiences that make me question my sanity in hopes that if I am being crazy, that someone can talk some sense into me. I pride myself on my voice of reason. But sometimes you just have to let it all out, so you don’t actually go crazy.
We have all had those days that felt unbearable. But then we get through them. The days that feel like they will never end. But then the next morning comes. Some days you just need to resort to angry laughter, so you do not explode. I do not have those kinds of days often, but when I do, they are usually a doozy. Please do not vote for this one either. I know this is nothing but the crazy babble of an angry woman about to lose her mind. There was practically no voice of reason in this one. I would actually question your sanity if this was your choice for this month’s Worst on the First.
Discrimination or Life Choices??
This post is questioning if there is really gender wage discrimination in this country or even the world. Or is the difference in pay more likely caused by life choices.
Since March was Woman’s History Month, the media is flooded with information about gender wage discrimination. As I keep hearing about this, I keep questioning if it is really a common thing. It has not been my personal experience, or I have my blinders on. I would really like to know. The more thought I put into it, the more I come up with a different conclusion then the rest of the world.
As I think back to when I was younger, I walk myself through all of the positions I have had, the opportunities given, and the pay scale I climbed. I remember back to what I know about male friend’s jobs and pay. When I still cannot see a problem, I start asking females that I know about their experiences verses their male counterparts. At the end of the day, I still can’t find the problem. Please let me know if I am missing what everyone else can see by comment or voting at the end.
Crazy Babble or Just My Voice of Reason??
Worst on the First is a monthly review of the most outlandish things that made me question my sanity from the prior month. So, I am looking to find out if the way the world works, and the way other people think are crazy or if I am the crazy one. Sanity is a tricky thing. Please select the post below that is the most irrational because I need some help figuring out if I am just babbling like a crazy person or sharing my voice of reason.
Loving the concept. Loving the writing. Saved to my favs.
So glad to hear. Check out Worst on the First tomorrow
Excellent article. I am going through many of these issues as well..
