Some days at the office are better than others. We've all had them. On some of my absolute worst days, tears have fallen I am ashamed to admit. Over the years I have made invaluable contacts. Many of which I am proud to say I am friends with. On the flip side, I have met my fair share of characters. The following quote from Kelly Cutrone's New York Times Bestseller If You Have To Cry, Go Outside; And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You made me realize I need to read this book asap. I hope it is available at my local public library.

In an industry like fashion, people always behave badly all around you, but if you resolve to become a spiritual warrior, you learn to laugh and laugh, knowing that other people don't define you and ultimately their behavior is just helping you work out your own shit.
