No, i do not feel sad if i had a off day. Normally i have bad days and then the temper is working overtime. No time for me to feel sad. But if you have a off day again, just look in the mirror and stick out your tongue for yourself, that will make you feel better. TATA.

Yeah! I felt sad and upset when the day is bad at office. I felt like this when I am thinking about the office. so I will try to change my mind by doing some other thing.

Usually when something that upsets me happens I'll feel sad for a few minutes but then usually I'm too busy and I end up forgetting about it... until I think about it again. So to answer your question I would say I usually just forget about and think about the future (:

I think it is typical for people to be sad or upset when they have a rough day at work. When I worked at the hospital we were always short staffed. There were several times that I would end up having to watch the entire floor as an assistant to the nurses and it would depress me. I remember several times while I was at work that I would end up crying. It wasn't because there was too much work for me, it made me upset because I didn't feel like I was being fair to my patients.

dont lose hope or get disappointed. youll never reach your goal if you keep on complaining. just look on the brighter side, be optimistic, and never complain nor get sad. it would just slow you down. just try to work hard, eventually it will pay off someday.

As working is a big part of my life, I feel sad when I got pressures from work. But I think we cannot put work as the only focus in the life, so it will be a good idea to have some hobbies through which I can have fun in my leisure time. And by doing this I won't be bothered too much by work.

I too feel very bad on days when nothing seems to work right. In mylot as it is I post few discussions myself so that area is immune to disappointment but in office, this happens often. Sometimes in projects which are jointly done, somebody else gets all the credit or maybe you know, you’ve done something with all sincerity but there was no appreciation really! Part of life…we really have to accept these and move on.

I may not be sad but really affected by what happened. I would feel irritated, upset and my mood for the rest of the day greatly affected. What I do is to entertain myself by watching tv or being online. It is always nice to hear from friends online. I also play games on the computer, be they online or not.

I feel sad when my day in the office did not turn out the way I expect it to be. However, I don't dwell on it. I move on and tell my self I am going to make sure tomorrow will be a better day. :) I am a very optimisti person. That's why though I feel sad whenever I fail I don't get depressed over it. Instead, it inspires me to do better.

i dont feel sad or worried when im having a bad day at the office or at home or any other place.because i know if there is something wrong then there is something i should do better.just like when im starting here in mylot were i rarely get responses on my discussions.i try to think what could have wrong or what do i lack to make people post responses on my discussions.i found out that if you wanted to have more responses in your discussions try to get as much friends as you can and add more tags in your discussions and of course think of something original and a bit controversial to talk with.that way i started to gain more responses and until now even if im not active here in mylot there is still a lot of responses in my posts because i found out the secret of what i am doing wrong before.

I think I'm more of irritated rather than sad. Bad day is a pissed day. So most likely you are in not good mood, it's more of being impatient and the anger combined. And whenever I feel bad at work, I'm just quiet and got all the temper in me. Eventually it'll go away, as I don't want to stuck myself with the 'bad day' I may have.. It would just the to carry the bad day the entire time you are at work, isn't it?

I have learned long time ago that bringing office work to home will definitely make your home a bad place to be. That goes along with bad office days. Even though how much sad or tensed I am at the office, I never carry it to home. Its because the whole family is also affected if one is having a bad day. Therefore, I learned that whenever I punched out my time card, all works have to be left at office and I always think of how my family would be happy when I'm at home.

I think everyone feels sad when they have an off day, it is how they deal with that sadness that makes all the difference. Some days, a person just has a lot of stress in their lives and the trick is to find what things de-stress each person. For me, getting outside usually relaxes me, sometimes working in the yard or garden or building a little fire and sitting beside it eases my tension. If the off day is caused by depression or a general feeling of restlessness, then I find that writing or doing something creative helps. I hope there is something here you can use...in the meantime...wishing you a happy, peaceful day!
