Everyone has their moments when they find themselves engulfed with "stress."
I have those moments on a regular basis; specifically around 4 o'clock most weekday afternoons.
Why 4 o'clock?
For a reporter, it's when you know there's barely enough time to get all the work you've done throughout the day complete for the 5 and 6 o'clock newscasts.
It's amazing how fast the morning goes by, and how convenient it is that most interviewees are tied up in the mornings; only having free time to meet in the afternoon cutting it close to deadline time.
My co-workers always know when I am stressed because instead of sitting at my desk typing up my stories, you'll find me standing up typing at my desk.
For some reason, standing up makes me feel like I am able to get everything done faster and more efficiently.
Standing up does help me get through the 4 o'clock stress but it also gives me a backache by days end.
Anybody else have strange ways of dealing with stress?

Um, I like to complain... and yell at people.
ReplyDeleteI end up shutting out the world. I get mean and keep to myself.
