    Unhappy Occupational Hazard ?

    Well I've been thinking about it from past few days. It started when I was p*ssed off by my grilfriend (She's a non IT) when I have to explain something over and over.
    So what am i thinking over? It's about our tolerence level in general.Has it decreased from before? From the regular exposure to brainstorming problems?
    And is it general or do I need to go to a shrink ?

    But I was speaking on more general sense. Have you ever felt like that Tarry?

    There is way too much exposure, thus you are tempted to indulge too much in too many things. That hooks most of us behind these stoopid computers and not face-to-face.

    I guess it's lack of patience and not tolerance.

    Doesn't one lead to another.You are always thinking about how to make that damned sql go faster and faster(Don't tell me you don't bring work to your home--- If you're stuck you'd be thinking of it all the).
    At one point of time you make that query go faster and you are satisfied.Slowly and slowly this becomes a habit. You start to expect everything around you should be working just like your sqls.And when they dont' you start spitting fire.

    Beware you may end up with too many dead leaf blocks
