You ever have one of those days? A day where time drags on forever, and so many people seem to be actively making your life harder? A day where you have to check with your coworkers that everyone actually is rude, thoughtless, oblivious, or some combination thereof, and they confirm that no, it’s not just you?
I have. I have had those days. I have had days where I have to start consciously speaking in a very mindful, very demure voice because if I try to use my actual voice it will be too easy for my irritation and annoyance at being treated like an NPC by people who ask me questions but then don’t bother to bleed through. Days where my only salvation is the bottle of soju waiting for me. Days where I swear that I can smell the burning of my last good nerve.
And on those days, where I am desperately trying to keep smiling so I don’t throttle the next inconsiderate fiend who shows a willful lack of decency in how they treat people in their place of work, this is the playlist I turn to, trying to vent off the rage so it doesn’t explode. Passive-aggressiveness and spite may not be the best emotions, but they definitely help keep that last nerve from fraying all the way down.
