Where's rawsavon?

I lack the psychology nomenclature to adequately describe the skewed viewpoint that TC has.

As sideswipes said, we've all got problems.

expect nothing, hope for everything

I've adopted this simple way of thought and have been incredibly happy ever since.

If you walk around and simply expect good things to happen, even if you "deserve" them, you are going to be disappointed for the rest of your life.

I hate to sound harsh, but you should really use these opportunities to get used to it. I don't mean that in a "lie down and just take it" kind of way, but you need to expect this type of behavior from everyone you interact with in the work place. If you expect this, then you can become comfortable with simply knowing that you are competent at what you do. If others need to grapple for attention to feel accomplished, let them. In the end, your own results will speak for themselves to those who pay attention. Good luck!

If you go around in life comparing yourself to others you'll never be happy. You have to live in the moment and enjoy as much as you can in life. As Zombieland puts it "enjoy the little things"

agreed

enjoy the little things, and dont sweat the petty stuff (or pet the sweaty stuff, I cant remember :P ). And for the love of god, if you are under 28 years old do not worry about making the big bucks. You are too damn young to begin your adult life being miserable.

if you are a kind and generous soul, then the best thing you can do for yourself and others is to focus on your own happiness, and damn everything else. I know that sounds self-centered but, like I said, if you are generous and kind it will be ok.

since you helped them with the core maybe their presentation was better then yours. if the tests are mathematical or multiple choice, you got just what you earned.

Stop comparing yourself with others. If you look hard enough you will always find someone who's better off than you in some regard.

If you do that long enough you'll surely end up having a bout with depression

Life frustrates a lot of people, including me. I'm not going to tell you to get used to it or "man up" like some others would because it pisses me off when people say that crap.

One time I took English in summer school (normally they are supposed to be MUCH easier than regular school), but ended up with the hardest marker out of all the teachers. Some kids who are not viewed as "smart" got similar marks to people working really hard in my class. I really just wanted to quit and do it later on in the year, but by that time I had already wasted a week in school. The best advice I can give you is to ignore others as much as possible, and just do the best you can do yourself. When it comes to people asking you to give them knowledge, you should help them out but make it clear that you don't want them to rely on you. P.S. Summer school was in advance for grade 12, I didn't take it because I failed.

Even if I was accurate, it could still be considered trolling to give a less than pleasant interwebz diagnosis

The internet is generally not the best place to come to to talk of your problems. Which is unfortunate for those who lack friends or loved ones who could talk to them.

Indeed. Though some peoples problems are laughable compared to others.
