4. HAVING A BAD DAY? IT'S OK TODAY: Today is Have a Bad Day Day ... no joke. Believe it or not, Have a Bad Day Day was created to encourage us to wish people to have a bad day. The intent is to have sales people stop saying to their customers "have a good day," and replace it with "have a bad day."
