Thanks Angela2! I hope your job is going well.
You should have heard the meanie girls yesterday. This one chic is so obviously jealous that I've befriended this guy that used to talk to her all the time. They are both married, and I don't think she is into him or anything, its more like she resents that he talks to me so much (our desks are on either side of him). There's already been the comment directed toward him when I was out one day that he told me about ("so are you going to get some work done today since your little friend isn't here?"). And yesterday she starts talking to him and another guy about how her particular ethinticity (which I won't name) is the best for a wife because they're submissive and will do whatever the man wants. I didn't think that was much to brag about, but it was obvious it was a slight against me. Of course the guys present were oblivious, but it was obvious to me. You know how you can just tell some times that women are being intentionally bitchy.
I tried not to let it effect me, but it really irritated me. I never respond to direct insults, I tend to stay silent and just steam. Of course I always think of the snappy retort later.
Oh, and the whole group of girls had a bitch fest because I ordered pizza for lunch with the guys and nobody asked them. Of course it doesn't matter that they order food all the time and leave me out when I sit at the same table with them for lunch everyday!!! I really don't know how I tolerate them! But like I said, there are a couple of ladies in the group that I like (they just aren't bold enough to speak up), so I just ignore the mean ones.
Today I was out for jury duty, so I look forward to hearing what was said about me in my absence. My guy friend promised to tell me anything he hears. Its satisfying to know the guys all think I'm cooler than all the other gossipy chics, and they've got my back. Especially since it seems to make the girls so-o-o jealous!
Mwa-ha-ha (evil laugh).
