Journal 4

All in all everyone has a bad day,do people react differently when they are having a bad? I think everyone shows it when they aren't having the best day. Some are rude, mean, cold, loud, embarrassing, and hurtful. Has anyone ever hurt me because of a bad day or because of something i might have said or done,yes, but to me there is no reason to act a certain way. Do i have bad days, of course, but i try to keep a lot to myself so i dosen't effect my job or my family's day. But some people react in a way you know something is wrong.
I have been a childcare teacher for eleven years and the one thing that i think is rude is when parents or other staff members talk to you without even looking at you. Sometimes it's because they have their atttention on something else while trying to talk to you and other times it's because they are irritated at you and dosen't want to look you in the face. Either way i think it's very rude. If i ever think i have done something i will ask and if someone says yes then i will make sure and fix or try and fix what i might have said or done. There is no reason for anyone to not look in the eye or give you the shoulder just because they don't want to talk about the situation.
Being a parent,teacher,and student i hear people complain 24/7. It dosen't bother me if someone needs to vent and talk about there day or problems because they know everything they say is going to be confidential. But on the other hand if they are doing this every day and nothing is positive and all they are saying are things that are negitive, i will politly let them know that I'm sorry to hear about whats happening but i try to keep my days light of stress and if there is ever anything i have said or done for you to be unhappy about then let me know and i will take care of the problem. I would rather the problem be addressed to me then to someone else.

  1. The reason I assigned this question is because I have seen staff do this to each other, the director and to the parents. Students need to become aware of their own feelings about this issue so they can understand how important it is to others to be acknowledged. Thoughtful answer
