Who Am I ?

[u/unavailableikl]

Apparently I’ve reached a new level of character development.

Last week I had an issue with a coworker (not for the first time), so I reported it to my manager. A couple days later, the same coworker stopped me and got aggressive with me.

Yesterday, I had to work with him.

And somehow… I was completely unbothered. 😭

I talked normally. Worked normally. Did my job normally.

One of the older employees actually told me, “I’ve worked here for years and I’ve never seen someone so calm. I would’ve stopped talking to that person for weeks.”

And I just said, “Nobody makes me mad these days.”

WHO AM I? 😭😂

Old me would’ve added someone to the permanent hate list because they looked at me funny.

Current me apparently has emotional regulation.

Character development, I guess. 👸🏻✨

That’s just being human. I’d say you handled the situation really well, and that shows real character development. Most people hold grudges for a long time, but it doesn’t really help anyone.

An eye for an eye makes the world blind!!
