Words can be so hurtful. I try,  and try not to say things in the wrong way(Tact) It’s one thing my former employee always told me to work on. I guess that’s why I never just blurt out what I truly want to say. Shame on me!  Always try to be nice and figure out a way without being hateful or hurtful.

Anyhow, what brings this about is the word HATE. Hate is such a strong word.  I have a co-worker that just sits around and does just enough work to get by.  Just enough work to not get fired.  Recenlty though, we’ve found him sleeping.  We’ve also noticed his stuff starting to be stored here(at work)  Whatever his reason for doing so is wrong.

I’m not sure of his home life. Is he homeless? Is he avoiding his girlfriend? I don’t know.  He has a desk where he keeps his bills, supplies, church photos, etc… Today, I found his laundry basket of dirty clothes.  Guess that’s where my detergent has been going.

So, why do I not like him? Do I feel that he’s abusing the system? Do I feel used? YES! I find myself saying that I hate him.  I hate that word Hate. Wish it were never in my vocabulary.  When I do find myself saying it, I do retract it and say “I truly dislike” this person.
