I think people should have a little sign that hangs over their heads to give an indication regarding their possible attitude. You know like the signs they have on cabs and buses - "Off Duty", "No Stops" - we could have little signs that say things like - "Bad Underwear Day", "PMS", "No Coffee Yet", "Had Sex Last Night" - just a little something to give everyone around you an indicator regarding your attitude. It would make day to day life so much easier. You walk into work and you think today is the day you're going to ask your boss for a raise and you look up and her signs says "Lost 3 Lbs." BINGO! Or, your husband comes home from work and you're ready to lay into him because he forgot to take out the trash, fill up your gas tank and left junior in a dirty diaper that morning, but his sign reads - "Lost Account" - now you know those other things don't seem so important in the scheme of things. How about if you have to tell your roommate that you have to raise the rent? If her sign says - "Bad Underwear Day" - you figure now is a good a time as any because her day could get worse. We need something, because there seems to be so many angry, frustated, aggravated and impatient people out there. People don't take the time communicate with one another. Customer service levels are at an all time low, divorce rates are still high, marriage rates are declining, more kids are being medicated now than ever before and overall people just don't want to be bothered. Something has to give, the world has to take a collective sigh and maybe have a 10 minute time out. So, in absence of using common sense and good communcation skills, we should all have signs over our heads.
