My Four Emotions at Work during the Day

We all know that in a day, we have a roller-coaster of emotions happening to ourselves. Sometimes, once we woke up in the morning, we are already irritated, either because we don't have complete sleep, or we heard a bad news or we are just not feeling good. Some have issues in the morning because they are not a morning person.

To be honest, I am not a morning person too. I am active at during the night and I sleep at dawn already because I have a night shift job. In the morning, I need to wake up early too because I have a day shift job. I just want you to understand the mood I wear, early in the morning at work.

Grumpy and disappointed
Forgive me. As much as I want to be inspirational with this post, my post is about revealing myself and my four Emotions. Unfortunately, I am grumpy in the morning, at work, but not as always. This is because of some inconsiderate people who are only concern about themselves and never get to think about the situation of their co-workers.

This is my grumpy face once something is disappointing happening as soon as I arrived at work. Some people are not willing to listen to your explanations. Some are insisting their side that looks IMPOSSIBLE. Files and documents are given late, that I need to reviews and will advise you that they needed it ASAP. Who will be happy? It is quite disappointing that you remind them of the rules and procedures at work and they always have amnesia when they needed something. They don't remember the rules at all and will just say, if you didn't do it, you are to blame. Wow! Let's clap our hands everybody!! Wave your hands, like you just don't care!!

Irritated

Still in the morning, after I become grumpy because of some inconsiderate people, I will feel irritated. I will force myself to believe I will still do the work. I calm myself, but my blood is boiling and I'm irritated. This will not last up to lunch, of course, I want to have a good lunch because food are blessing from God. Once I feel irritated, I am doing my job but I keep silent. I don't want to utter any words. As much as possible I should be professional. I can only share my emotions to the people I am close with. I might look mad, but I wear that face so that everyone will stay away from me. I can focus on my work while my blood is boiling.

Happy

This is my after lunch face. I am a person who rely on food to change my emotions. That is why I am fat. I am stress all the time and I am hungry because of stress. Foods are my stress reliever. Can I mention Ice cream? Yes, that is my stress reliever food.

Once I have a food intake, it changes my mood. I become understanding and open-minded. Plus, being happy clears my mind. I don't have a choice but to accept what happened in the morning, do what's right, follow the procedure and be understanding. Anyway, regardless of my mood, I am very willing to listen, but some people are not willing to do that for me.

Calm and Fulfilled

Time to go home now!! Yes, that is the face I am wearing when the day ends at work. I do not bring any negativity with me going home because it drains my energy. I still need to do something at home because I have a night shift work. I need to shift my mood, calm myself and tap my back for a good work for today.

I feel fulfilled because I able to finish my documents and completed my priorities. I have anxiety, that is why as much as possible I don't want to get worry about work when I am at home, so I finish all of my task before going home. It is my way of helping myself. It becomes a habit to leave all the negativity behind.

Once I am at home, I change to be a mother of a dog, to be a sister, a daughter, an Auntie and a bestfriend. I start to build good memories and I laugh hard, so that all those positive energy will be with me for the next day battle.

I know most of you can relate to this. We all have different emotions in a day. Some even have different persona. What matter is that, when we have problems, we must learn from the mistakes and wrong decision. We need to move on and move forward. We need to value ourselves and our hard work. We are not the work, but we are a human being doing the work. If we cannot finish something, we just need to do it tomorrow. I am a passionate worker and I push myself to survive all the difficulties I have to face everyday.
