Get the racial battle fatigue mug.An increasingly common ailment across the United States, particularly with the gainfully employed.
Symptoms include the overwhelming urge to curse and yell "Really????" when reading almost any headline, or email bulletin from Human Resources.
The stress from the modern work environment may often cause suffers to consume alcohol, and or play the guitar at Volume 11.
Causes are well understood. The human brain is not hardwired to speak as the everything should be filtered through a "lawyer buffer". Those on earth that still have some sort of "Sense of Humor" find the modern work environment challenging. (Not the WORK part.....the EGGSHELLS part

Get the slack fatigue mug.When, after the massive amount of time spent in a mall for the holidays, people shop at any location, even if it is a location with worse customer service, provided it is a standalone store.
I would go visit those guys at the Verizon Kiosk in the mall, since they're more knowledgeable in their products, but this mall fatigue is killing me. I'll just go to that other store.
