Do you think you're a patient person? Or do you easily fly off the handle? Do certain people bring out the worst in you quickly?

I was just on Facebook and there are a few friends who get so irked by little things. I was a substitute teacher so I am tolerant of things most people couldn't handle. Of course then there are people like a few very close friends who know how to get me mad in one sentence! LOL But that's because they know me so well to push that right button. I hide that one a lot ;)

How come no one is replying to you!!!! It happens all the time around here: a really good opening post is made and.... and WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, WAIT - that's what we have to do! Why can't people actually READ things and REPLY is some intelligent matter. It's disgusting. It's rude. I'm signing off. I can't stand this.

I'm veeeery patient. The elevator absolutely doesn't get the worst out of me when I'm carrying heavy stuff or have 2 mins to run to the bus. My that thing is soooo slow.

Patience comes hard for me.I hate when people don't answer my questions, especially the ones where the answer could be a simple yes or no.

They say patience is a virtue, but it has it's ups and downs.

I would like to think I am a very patience person, I worked in child care and looked after other peoples children on a daily basis from 6.30 am to sometimes 10 pm that was children coming in and out at different times plus saturdays .... I had a child from 3 months to 17 who was autistic and loved him to bits.. I did this for 30 years up until 2012, then decided I had enough so retired from it...and now looking after my hubby with my daughter we need a lot of patience some days ..

Hmm.

Lammchen has a trigger button that I don't know about that can transform her from a sweet cuddly playful lamb into...what's an appropriate opposite?? I lion, a wolf, a bear robbed of her cubs??

Beware the secret trigger button of dark transformation.

As for patience - I'd say that under normal circumstances I am - however sometimes I put myself in, or am put in, situations that make patience difficult.

My patience level is really good until it isn't. But it takes a really long time to get to the impatient part then it's like zero to 100, but I'm working on it. After all patience is a virtue. (looks around to see who I infuriated)

I'm sooo glad you didn't say Cougar! LOL

And I'll hide my triggers!
