Overcoming Negativity: Tips for Staying Positive on CS During Tough Times

[pcchris]

I understand how many of you are upset with the happenings of late on certain threads here on CS...and not just the one we're all thinking about. I've read so much negativity on here in the last couple of days...where and when does it stop? I'm sure I'll get slammed by some of you for this post, but at this point it doesn't matter to me...go ahead and slam away. We all need to understand that FedEx is still dealing with this changeover, people make mistakes, and HO is busy busy busy. I know it's easy to come on here and gripe about everything that bugs us about PC when things go wrong, or slow, or whatever. But somehow we need to figure out how to get out of our winter blahs (for those of us that have winter), and create some positive energy here. It's so easy to complain and get mad and everything else (myself included), but if there is nothing that can be done to change it, we need to figure out how to deal with it and keep on keepin' on. There are several new people registering here and we need them to see what a wonderful site this is with SO much information available...not all this negativity. I hope you all understand what I'm saying...and don't get all po'd at me for this post. If you do, then so be it, but I'm done being beat down...I'm standing tall and asking all of you to do the same. Sorry for the long post...I had to get it out. Thank you for reading.

Amen sister! Ranting is natural but let's help each other with suggestions instead of accusations

I completely understand where you're coming from. It's been a tough time for everyone with all the changes and mistakes happening. But like you said, we need to figure out how to move past it and focus on the positive aspects of this forum. There is so much valuable information and support here, and it's important to maintain that for new members who are just joining. Let's try to spread some positivity and support each other through this difficult time. Thanks for speaking up and reminding us to stay strong.
