Be realistic people!!. Crap happens to everybody and if a worker doesn't smile at you and make you feel warm and fuzzy every single time you go through a line-up, try to consider what kind of day THAT person might be having. I agree, Lizard Lady. We need to allow people to feel what they feel and not try to be "cheerleaders" 24/7. It is humanly impossible to be such a person.

That happened to me,,earlier, in the year. Was cited for not being on board at work. I was doing the work, but wasn't all cheerful. Let's see, my exh was being hardcore, owed me hundreds of dollars, was ending a several years long online friendship, after we had the talk and he said he thought of me more like a sister, depression was coming back, was missing my deceased Mom, was having flashbacks to what I was feeling during my sh years, was grappling with a married man interest and trying to resolve once and for all why it is emotionally unavailable men gravitated towards me, sooooo, by the time they brought to my lap, new equipment/new product, with then untreated/limbo anxiety to boot....just how was I expected to smile????
