The religion is paganism, by the way. Specifically the worship of a weather goddess. Any time my coworkers try to complain about the weather I just think of how bad it feels to have my own work not recognized for it's own unique beauty, so I chime in to reframe their negativity as something positive.
- "Good! My bird bath could use some fresh water"
- "Looks like it'll be a great weekend for staying inside!"
- "Finally! The perfect weather to try out my new hot cocoa recipe!"
I don't know if they've ever thought about my relentless positivity enough to realize that it only extends to the weather forecast but they've definitely stopped complaining about it as much in my presence
