I would cram in studying the night before the test and get frustrated with myself if I did not understand the material right away. While training…

The list could go on and on, but the point is, this kind of behavior is unacceptable, and people should learn to speak up. I learned this lesson the hard way.

It's almost a daily contest to see who can have bragging rights for having the worst day, perhaps they want sympathy or maybe they just like to complain a lot.
