RudeGirl was still in a very bad mood today, so I decided to wait as far as asking for the files. I had woken up in a great mood having decided somewhere in my subconscious that I was not going to let people's craziness effect my well being. I mean, I have had more than my fair share of this crap in the past, so I just had to let it go.
So I'm just sitting there doing my job (she hadn't spoken to me all day) when around 3:00 she comes to me and asks if I will go out with her for a cigarette. So I'm like all worried it was about me. But come to find out, she had just had her review, was very upset, and needed someone to vent to!
Okay, that still isn't even the craziest part. So she tells me her supervisor was getting on to her about the way she acts with her rudeness and all. Somewhere along the way, she figured out that a fellow coworker had to have been the one to tell her superviser all this (which is actually true). RudeGirl said this person has been going to the boss and telling her all these things she has done, and skewing everything to make it sound bad when it really wasn't... Hey, why does this sound familiar? Wait a minute... THIS IS WHAT RudeGirl HAS DONE TO ME FROM DAY ONE!!!!!!!
As if this wasn't enough, she also tells me this person always brags to her about everything she does, like working until 9PM at night. She asks me, "What possible reason could she have to be telling me these things?!?!" I said, "Well, sometimes people have to build themselves up by talking about their accomplishments a lot." She's like, "Do you really think that's it?" I said, "Well, maybe." She then says, "Its just so frustrating to work you butt off everyday only to be brought down by one person". Seriously, can you freaking believe that??????
So, I'm sure you're wondering if I was able to keep a straight face. Or not blurt out the glaringly obvious similarities. Or not run and tell EVERYONE about this knowing they would find it hilarious. Well, I didn't do any of those things. I admit I was tempted though. The hardest part was not telling someone else. Especially since not 5 minutes before I had been talking to a coworker about how RudeGirl was a bully and seemed intent on sabotaging my job (these were my coworker's words not mine, many people have come to me to tell me they don't like how she treats me and that its harassment). But I decided that even though I know she would never show me the same courtesy, I would not tell what I told her I would keep to myself. However, I did decide I would spill it all on babble as soon as I got home!!!
