I Have No Patience For Your Impatience

Ugh. This morning a traffic construction guy told me to "Move, you're holding up traffic," as I asked him a simple question. I snapped at him. Totally unlike me.

All day I was amazed by my students' inability to have patience or compassion for each other.

Then a guy yelled at me for having parked in his spot for five minutes. I snapped again.

I wish people's immediate response to every situation weren't hostility.
