The Downside of NPR

My problem with NPR is not the news, or the programs, or the excessive talky-talk, my problem with NPR is their timing. I’ve worked with a LOT of people who listen to NPR first thing in the morning, get all upset and come into work like a grumpy panda who sat on a pissed off cat. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that people often listen to NPR in their car and that road rage seems to be increasing.

I find that no matter what news you watch/listen to, it is upsetting and that people, in general, are too pissy (since I’m often pissy, I can easily see it in others). I’m also a bit stupid in the morning and I like the radio to play me music, not talk to me before I’ve had breakfast and coffee. Same thing with driving home, I’m a bit stupid from working all day and would prefer some soothing, chill music instead of angry, yelling people (who I often deal with on the phone anyway).

I’ve gotten another deflating phone message today and am feeling low. Bleh. Chris is brooming around the cat and the cat toys. Dylan likes the broom.
