Frustration.
I'm not talking about those big issues we all have to deal with at some point that could be easier or harder depending on a variety of circumstances. I mean the little things.
You drop your pen into a crawl space and it's the only one in a hundred foot radius for some reason. A door panel you've gone through a THOUSAND TIMES, and knowing how long it takes to open and close, gets stuck for some reason and you walk right into it. Or your Mag tape decides to undo itself for no good reason, or the station helping you out decides to shut off half-way through.
It's all those little things that just make you go crazy. You already have a job to do, already have personal things to take care of, WHY does it seem there's a plot between these inanimate objects to just make it harder for you??
Some might say "karma" or something like that, but that's crap and you know it. Good decent people still deal with these little things, and when they amount, you snap. Of course, it's natural to be a little testy when you're dealing with an escaped research subject or half the deck is flooding for some reason. But these little things are pretty much a test to your nerves.
Life's life, and there's a lot to do with it. That usually means a HECK of a lot of frustration and stress to deal with. But hey, it's got it's good points in it to look forward to right?...right?
I won't say I have a remedy for these little things, they're going to happen someday, even in bulk. Some things are bound to stress you out and test the limits of your resolve, and you might start thinking the world's inanimantcy is against you. Truth is, maybe it is. Maybe your thumbtacks conspired with the carpet to plan out how your feet are going to have a bad time. Or the coffee and the table (explaining how a "coffee table" came about) decide tipping is how to make you warmer in an unwanted way.
I guess a way to deal with all of this is to try to not take it too personally. This crap happens to a lot of people as well as you. Also, try to have some little things to look forward to help you "get through those next few days". It's nice to have something ahead that you know will perk up your spirits for the next round. Who knows, maybe it'll balance out or be worth it some day.
You usually just grit your teeth, pull up your Mag, and get on with it.
Now...where's that chocolate Belvita biscuit sandwich I was working on eating---oh great...it fell on the floor...oooooh...it's alright, I got a whole box. It's fine. It's fine...it's....ffffiiiiiinnnneeee.....

Ditto for the last b--HEY
Anyway ahem...ALMA runs the SHIP. While she's suppose to oversee the crew in some fashion, her job description is basically making sure everything is running to optimum standards. She's not some personal caretaker Some machines run indirectly of her, so she's not really involved in some things. This is one of them

You dropped a chocolate covered biscuit on the floor and your mag came loose at the same time? Uh hate to point this out but from a distance to someone else this situation might look like a different kind of "accident" if you know what I mean. And speaking of which I hope you manage to fix your diap...mag before you need to use it, especially if it happens to be number two.
No the biscuit was afterward, and that's what it was, a Belvita sandwich actually That thought is just nauseating, humans have been changing words to be more lewd for years, and can be a source of dumb miscommunication (see: almost every romantic comedy film ever). A biscuit is a round cake of bread or something like that...not...that.
Oh, they probably pulled close to me because I was about to burst out in a bigger angry rant. Kind of a reflex I guess. Randall's got it with those...things on his head...fronds? Yeah. they kinda go down when he's shocked, but go right up when angry. So yeah, I was close to raging right here.
