  • I see what you’re saying, but perspective is not equatable to a math equation. An optimist and a pessimist can both have a complete understanding of the facts, but one predicts that things will get better, and the other predicts that things will get worse, and eventually, given enough time, they’ll both be right.

    There is no such thing as a realist. That’s just what someone calls themselves when they don’t realize that their perspective is flawed and unique to themselves.














  • Anyone remember when you only had so many calling minutes on your cell phone plan?

    I was working sales when we started offering unlimited calling plans.

    The unlimited plan was cheaper than the old limited plan this one guy was paying for, so I thought he’d be excited to get unlimited calls for $10 less it whatever it was. Nope. He got pissed and stormed out because the UNLIMITED plan, didn’t include free nights and weekends.

    I tried explaining that UNLIMITED means free ANY time of the day. “Then how come the plan doesn’t say 'Free nights and weekends?”

    I understand a lot of the time, those cell companies will make something sound better than it really is, but in this case, there really was no downside to switching the plan.

    You just can’t fix stupid.
