Attitude is a slippery concept. Are you born with a certain attitude? Does life thrust it upon you? Does it change from day to day and do you have control over those fluctuations? I’m not sure. I know that sometimes I wake up on the wrong side of the bed and my attitude is all out of whack. Everyone who asks anything of me is asking too much. Every face I see on the street is a potential enemy. Every question asked of me is an invasion of privacy. Some days are just like that. 

But on those days, it’s important to realize what you’re being like and to try to ameliorate it. Or at the very least try to limit your interactions with other people so they’re spared of your mood. But sometimes you’re in a bad moment and you have to be at work anyways. This is when you hope your employers have grace for you.
