A couple of years ago, I used to serve tables. I had a co-worker who quite often had a negative attitude and perspective. She never made enough money; her food was always taking too long; she was always over-worked in her section; and she could never keep up. Funny thing is, all of us servers had the same problems, she just looked at it negatively. We were all in the same storm, but she was drowning in it. Her adversity quotient must've been very small.
