Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction, unplugged because we will always say
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.
So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged, man,
the things we do in our everyday world and life.
Don't you hate it when you eat something that's very,
very hot, like soup, and it burns the inner lining
of your mouth. The experts say we should heal it
with cold water, yogurt, alo vera, and honey. Do all
you can to keep from furthering the injured area. Sounds easy, right,
Not according to my tongue. It wants to overparent the situation,
to constantly check in and see, hey, everything okay. Anytime
any part of your body is affected by change, the
mind goes into lockdown mode. Nothing else in the world
matters except for the injury. My entire life, people have
always accused me of overdoing it. Stop turning everything into
a major situation. Wouldn't it be nice if you could
just easily walk away and not have to think about
your pain or, in this case, a burned mouth that
just feels odd and not very happy. Hey, Zaro, this
is the daily mass. A chronological walk through in everyday world.
I am a daily writer. I am a silent wolf.
I stand on the sidelines, underneath the limbs of a tree,
and I watch life. I learn from life. I study it.
I go research it in ways so that we can
have a conversation, because there's so much that we're missing.
This is the daily mess. They've always said that fingernails
scratching a chalkboard is the most irritating experience on the planet.
One problem, though, not too many schools or businesses have
chalkboards these days. What then, would be the second worst
negative experience? How about people who walk into a business
with only two minutes to go before they close their doors.
Everything that I've researched on this, they don't call it rude.
They say, your business is open till eleven o'clock. You'll
stay there till eleven o'clock, and you'll give them professional service.
It's not rude to walk into a business with only
two minutes to go. Bosses are easily pushed over by
those kinds of people. They allow such bad behavior to
be part of the norm. It's who we are. I
jumped off the closing team at my essential job. Doe
one hundred percent to the anxiety that begins forty five
minutes to an hour before we close the doors. I
couldn't do it, not anymore, No, because it's the same people,
night after night, just strolling in there, not a care
in the world, and we owe them what professionalism. It's
every age group that's doing this, mainly those who live nearby.
It's only considered rude if you're showing up at the
door one minute after closing time and somebody forgot to
lock the door. So it's like, ah, now you have
to continue to be the professional and allow them to
do what it is that they do. But now, according
to these same experts, they do say this though, where
a client becomes rude is when they go into your
place of business looking for one thing and they come
out with ten things. Now that is rude. What is
your reaction going to be? You don't want to talk
to them about it, nor do you want to talk
to them about anything else. All you want is to
go home. Is that professional? Not so much learning how
to put on the candy coated plastic bathroom mirror smile
when people come into your place of business two minutes
before closing time. The holidays no different because they're banging
on the door saying I just need one thing. It
is not rude unless the doors have been closed at
their proper time, at the top of the clock. I'm Meryl,
and that's the daily mess.
