My day ended badly

Post Reply New Topic

Today did not end well. It was the last day for a summer program at Pikes Peak Workforce Center called the "Industrial Revolution". I wanted to get contacts from many of the other people in the program, including a few staff members. However, I felt that I had to take the first possible bus downtown, even though the bus I needed to transfer onto wouldn't arrive for another 30 minutes, thus it wouldn't delay me if I stayed at Pikes Peak Workforce for another half hour and catch the next bus downtown.

So, I said goodbye to everybody and rushed out of Pikes Peak Workforce and up a couple of blocks to the bus stop. I managed to get contacts from only three people, four if you include the fact that I added one guy to my Facebook account a year earlier. That was less than half of the people that I had planned to remain in contact with.

I believe that there are two factors that caused this. First, I hate being late for anything, whether it be late to work, school, social events, etc. Second, I am still used to having to rush to a bus in order to make it home an hour earlier that I could otherwise.

At the downtown terminal, I was on the verge of a meltdown. Thankfully, there weren't that many people at the terminal and very little stimuli. Fortunately for me, the anticipated meltdown did not occur.

Still, even though I have calmed down in the past two hours since getting off the bus at the intersection half a block from my house, it is sad to know that I won't be in contact with most of the people in that program due to this. At least I will be remaining in contact with four out of the five people that I wanted to stay in touch the most.

If you have their first names you can probably track them down on facebook.

Obsessions can be so aggravating.

Join the Pikes Peak Workforce Center facebook page. Post on the wall that you're looking for contacts during the time you attended the Industrial Revolution program.

Maybe the contacts you have at the moment have the contacts of the contacts you don't have lol. You should ask them
