It’s been a rough week at work, and being in an environment where we are all on call and numerous people are subbing for others who are having life get in the way, a lot of people are working late and taking weekend shifts that they would have otherwise had off.

One of my college friends works with me, and I know his responses to these questions pretty well, and boy howdy have I seen him go through all of these responses in order as things got worse and worse while the director pops in and out of call to check on us and get updates on the situation.

Considering we would have had the weekend off and both of us stayed very late, things are going pretty OK, all things considered. Can’t complain too much if I’m still truckin’

One time I was in a really run-down thrift store looking for anything neat that stood out. A random guy asked how I was doing and y'know, I tried to be genuine enough, but in return he gave what is now one of my favorite replies:

"Too blessed t'be stressed!"

The delivery of it was like he actually meant it. Like he was just enjoying his day lookin' at stuff and nothing could bother him.

It's a good outlook, y'know... especially because at the time I was in a miserable job and often used the "Been better" and "I'm here." Responses because I just didn't have much else in me.

I love stories like this because it makes me reflect on random people I've seen who have stuck in my memory for years who probably never noticed me. Makes me wonder if anyone remembers me for something random like this

In a wild turn of events, I was going through my replies and remembered you from a future comment, for kindly encouraging me when I described my ADHD struggle with keeping my comments brief online!

So, I guarantee I'm not the only one who remembers you for a good word. :)

whenever I hear living the dream I hear it like:

if you're a nerd and want to remain mysterious about your status like the OP, just say " red 5 standing by."

It's more of a "I just lost my starboard engine. Get set up for your attack run."

I see no "it is what it is" on here. This one happens a lot where I am
