Trying to read this book on anger management....it's actually making me angry! So for the most part I've been mellow but our new post doc opened the last case of one of our cell culture supplies and I asked her if she knew how to order more and she's like oh there's half a case left...well when people don't order more when they open the last case then someone later has to figure out what the right number is and no one assumes a case on higher shelf is half empty. So basically I'm like do you know how to order and after like three tries she finally answers the question I'm asking instead of giving some alternate excuse. The problem is if we run out of this supply the lab will cease to function for like a month...so now I have this note to myself to double check that she actually orders it but given her personality I have in my own mind decided that she will simply forget and that is making me angry. I had more of less forgotten about it myself but this book actually takes you through the types of anger you experience etc and telling you why it's bad and it's just ticking me off even more because now I have to remember all this garbage I was I think justifiably angry about in the first place. Roar! All it is doing is reactivating old anger and putting me in a mood!
