For some of us, getting up in the morning is the hardest part of the day. I'm sure there are days when people wished we had stayed in bed after trying to talk to us first thing in the morning. Coffee is probably your saving grace but even that doesn't put you in a good mood until at least 10:00. There really is a struggle to be nice to customers when you can't even fake smile to your coworkers. There are probably a thousand hateful thoughts that go through your mind, but lets just go with five.
1. "Why wasn't I born rich?"
We've all had this thought of how easy it would be to just already have the money and not have to worry about going to work or school. It would just be so nice to have a simple life full of vacations and sleep, wouldn't it?
2. "Who in the hell invented this alarm tone and why?"
I personally have to set a minimum of five alarms to even register that it is time to get up and no matter how many times I change the tone, I wake up with the same thought each and every morning. I could make my favorite song in the whole world my alarm tone and it would still be the worst sound on earth.
3. "Coffee."
I know I'm not the only person that couldn't function without this particular drink in my system. Without caffeine in my system, I am probably the last person on the planet that you would want to have a conversation with.
4. "Why is she smiling, it is only 8 AM?"
It is beyond tough for me to understand how people can be so cheerful in the morning. God makes everyone different and if I'm smiling before 8 o'clock, I'm faking it, I promise. To me, morning people are a completely different species, I try to work at being a better person every day, but a morning person is thing I will never be.
5. "Why is everyone in a bad mood?"
This is probably my most abundant thought, by the time I have completely woken up and have rediscovered my personality for the day, everyone is avoiding me like I have the flu or something. I guess they just don't understand how hard it is for me to function, much less be pleasant in the mornings.
To anyone who has been affected by my morning attitude, my sincerest apologies. It really just comes naturally.
