A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I have a phone job and one bad day a caller told me I sounded like I didn't want to be there that day, which was true.
But it's made me more aware of how I sound or present myself and, y'know, the whole fake it til you make it thing has worked with me.
Being happier on the phone led to happier outcomes with the members, which led to me not having my head down all the time.
