I need to be more forgiving. I think. I’m not sure.

Is my frustration with idiocy something i need to learn to forgive myself for ? Or is this frustration something i need to rectify ? I’m finding myself being obliquely rude to people who just don’t "get" the subject at hand and those who don’t follow social protocols.

And what is it with todays society and its total lack awareness of consequences ? This is possibly my biggest cause of "idiotic" frustration.

I wish i could say that it’s the province of Gen-Y & Z but it appears in Gen-X (my gen) too ! 

I’m shuddering at the thought of what Gen-i is going to be like in the workplace.

For example, a Friend Gen-X-er is accusing me of (what boils down to) unprofessionalism. ME?!?! I have no idea what the hell she thinks this will accomplish. Is she thinking that i’m so soft that i will acquiesce to her demands and that things will then go back to normal ? Did she ever wonder why i never fought with her ? I didn’t care enough to fight with her. But i care about what she’s accused me of. No white flag from Tamity. Her actions, her accusations are pure idiocy. And it frustrates me that my judgement of her character was also so foolhardy. I hate that i was so wrong about someone !

Don’t get me started on Gen-Y’s and Z’s. As a general rule – selfish. Only interested in what they can get from a situation and don’t give a flying hoot (did you like my lack of "language" there?) about what they should offer to said situation. And i hate that the rest of society sits there and goes "oh they’re young, they don’t understand". They are never going to understand because everyone is afraid to hurt these idiots feelings by correcting them because they’ve never been taught to cope with rejection, failure, and how to earn true gratitude. Oh no ! They might break ! They might cry ! F*** anyone who hasn’t learned to pay attention to situations around them (language fail). Why are we protecting them ? Why are people i care about, putting themselves out there to protect them ?! Have i chosen the wrong people to care about ? These Gens should be capable of sorting out their own problems and should not cause problems to others and should not be making people i care for come to their rescue. "Should". I wonder if they even care about the consequences of their actions ? Of who they hurt, who they step on on their way "up", what they damage in their continual thoughtlessness … or if they even realise ? Or are they all "me! me! me!" ? I know at least two people who’s lives have been turned up-side-down by said thoughtlessness. Mine is one of them. And i’m angry. Very angry. Righteously angry.

As with everything – there are exceptions to the rules. I know some wonderful, hardworking, moral Gen-Y’s, though have to admit that I don’t have many Z’s in my life anymore … on purpose.

Why am i SO angry ? This sort of stuff usually frustrates me but i don’t usually get so damn angry. I don’t usually type f-bombs. I think them a lot but i don’t include them in conversations and certainly not diarise them.

*ponders for a few minutes*

Bloomin’ hormones.

🙂 however, it has been fun letting this out ………….. 😀

I love a good vent – its so cathartic
