Thanks for the tip.

That was meant as a joke at the end; however, you're right. Being nice has been giving me fewer positive results by the month.

Everyone has a bad day now and then. It sounds like a lot is eating at you. You might be dealing with more than your fair share people who haven't gotten the help they need to learn why they're twats and how it hurts them and everyone around them. I know I was a worse person until I figured out how I got the way I was a few years ago; it took me til the back half of the 30s to start to be better.

I hope you find some peace for yourself.
