Life Is Crazy

Life is Crazy.

This morning I was driving on my way to work and this young woman tried to get my attention while I was waiting at a stop sign. She got my attention and she asked me if she could pay me to take her up the street in the same direction I was already going.  I knew I was going in the same direction she appeared to be walking in but these days you just don’t know. I told her I was sorry but I couldn’t and she appeared a little frustrated with me for declining her offer and she just walked off.  She was probably late for an appointment or something or she could have been a killer, maybe not but who knows.  I thought about what I did and I wondered if I could have taken her up the street but I really feel like you just never know.  If anybody would have been in the car with me I would have helped her out but I didn’t want to take any chances. I thought to myself, maybe that was wrong not to help someone and maybe my day will go bad because of what I did.

I tell you all no lie.  My day at work started terrible! I got to work a little late but I was still the first one here, I always am for the most part. However, the big boss called and needed some info and I wasn’t here to help. He called me into his office and vented and it drained me emotionally.  I tried to hold back the tears. I was unsuccessful at that but he didn’t see them. I don’t even know why I felt this way because he wasn’t over the top or anything.   I think I felt it was just the principle of the whole thing.  You are fussing at me for being 20 minutes late and I am still the first one in the office and I worked late as hell last night.  He felt that since I have an Administrative/Receptionist Role I need to be on time..Okay, but one day it’s Receptionist but when it’s convenient for you it’s Program Specialist (my actual title) and I am attending meetings, creating publications and coordinating events. Anyway, I don’t feel like venting anymore or bore you all with details, but I wonder if I would have given “ole girl” a ride would my day be shot to shit?? Life is crazy!
