my shortcomings

I get my geeky job; I can't always explain why or how something errored but I can usually figure out how to fix something. And if I can't figure it out, then I know that it's at a level that programmers need to fix. The thing is that I know it; it's come easily to me, it's my talent and I am fortunate for it. So I sometimes get very short and vent to others. Unfortunately this week I blew off a problem for a coworker until today. It is something that for some is not a big deal but because of another particular aspect, it is a big issue for this person. I also think that this coworker overheard my and another coworkers' venting and, if so, we most likely hurt that person. I feel very badly about this as I realize that I am fortunate for my natural ability. There are days that I only have to try a little and it all works out for me but not for them. I felt badly the entire way home and about an hour afterwards before I finally felt up to admitting it all to Trey.

So I told Trey all the details and he gave me some good insight on what I should do and also the male side of things. It's very interesting to hear how he sees things. He is also about the only person I'll allow (sometimes ;-) ) to tell me when I'm being oversensitive about a situation, comment, action.

I've also asked God for help and to help me be stronger and more patience. I really hope that I did not make my coworker's day worse. I have been miserable at work before and would hate to be a part of this person's misery.
