I used to think "positive people" at work were always optimistic and glass-half-full and overly bubbly and cheery through whatever was happening. A sort of smiley face emoji on legs.
I've learned that's not always true. Sometimes the most positive people are the ones who are really frustrated and always needing to vent and are caught in a firestorm and threaten to quit their job every day but are finding ways to have fun regardless.
Being a positive person doesn't mean you never say negative things. It just means you never let those negative things stop you from having a good time.
Those are some of my favorite people.
