Are you surprised when things don't go as planned?

I almost expect something to go wrong. My husband on the other hand always assumes everything will go as planned.

What type of person are you?

If you generally expect something to go wrong do you plan for it ahead of time? Have a back up plan, pad travel time, check cancellations policies before booking reservations?

Also, if you are not like this, when you are around people who are is it annoying to you? Do you perceive people who expect things to go wrong, and plan for mishaps, to be worriers, negative, and/or pessimistic?

I predict if dpworkin sees this question his answer will be, “No, I am not surprised when something does not go as planned, I’m Jewish.”
