Today I had the chance of meeting two of the most pessimistic people on Oahu. One of my pet peeves is a bad attitude. I met a guy at lunch who basically told me everything in the world he hates. Now it was a long list of hated items and when I asked him if he hated everything, he told me that he was "very opinionated about the things I hate." Now, let me say something about his vocabulary choice. For starters, hate is a very strong word. It should be used only when needed, not thrown into conversations like the word "the." Also, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, BUT an opinion should be well thought out. If all this guy does is tell people all the things he hates, who is going to want to tell him anything?
The second person was a girl, so a different kind of pessimism, but still negative. She went on and on about how she is a straight up jerk, and she never wants to be skinny,and skinny girls are obnoxious and more. Lot's more. I do my best to find the good in people. Especially if it is someone I don't like as well. Pessimism is never a good option.
Service of the day: I carried a girl's backpack to her. She had gone swimming and brought her backpack to her. The End
