one of my co-worker, whenever he screws up , he slams his hands on the counter, slams the keyboard... yells.. and runs out the door slaming it too.

he's no longer with the department....

i deal with my failure by playing practical jokes or talking trash with cool co-workers...oh yeah... give birds to the computer screen.... that doesn't accomplish anything..but it's funny... yeah that's it... deal failure with comedy relief that works....

I don't believe in failure, I believe in adjusting priorities and timelines as necessary.

wondering how people deal with the stress that comes from not reaching the goals you've set for yourself.

[*]Some people jump off bridges. Their memory fades quickly.

[*]Some people give up and pursue other avenues. They often have regrets.

[*]Some people try with all their might, but just can't get in a row. They join the -- eh, I can't say it this close to veterans day.

[*]And some people look the devil in the eye and kick the crap out of 'em :)
