Tropical Depression

I'm no meteorologist to define a tropical depression. I know it's a storm with rain and winds. The tropical depression becomes a hurricane by gaining strength with more rain and more winds. Visit Wikipedia and search for tropical depression for a better definition.

My personal tropical depression definition is a person spreading depression to other people. Do you make people depressed when you are with them? Think of a tropical depression person as someone who is the center of the storm and anywhere the tropical depression person goes, the depression storm follows. My alarms activate when a tropical depression person comes to me. The time is now to move away. I become depressed when the depressed person comes near me. I have the "Please go away" attitude.

What is your attitude? What is your behavior? What are your actions when you interact with people? Are all three positive such that people welcome you, people enjoy your company, and people greet you when you enter a room? On the other hand, is your behavior negative such that you act like a jerk, interrupt people, find people and be a nuisance, or never appreciate your friends?

How do you remove your tropical depression? Become a sun =) The short answer is stop being a jack-ass and start being a friend. A friend is a person with a positive attitude. A friend is a person who appreciates others, greets people, and makes sure everyone feels important. A friend proves he or she is a friend by actions such as paying back debts quickly, admitting mistakes, and laughing at friends' jokes. (Don't be like me a laugh too much which I think looks terrible on a person, a habit I continue to improve.) Finally, tropical depression people are the first to leave a company when there are department or company personnel changes.

Side note: On my way to work today, all the signal lights were green expect for the last signal which is a left turn. It's my third perfect commute. The ultra perfect is the last signal is green =P
