Lunch and Stuff

We went to Chili’s for lunch, mmmm. We’re going to Applebee’s tomorrow. 🙂 On the way back from lunch they were working on one of the intersections in Hartford. The intersection was down to 1 lane. Wouldn’t you know it the idiot in front of us stopped his car right in the middle of the intersection and started asking the cop for directions. We had absolutely no way to go around him so we had to sit and wait. This isn’t the first time either, this happens all the time. People can be so fucking rude. Nothing like pulling over after you get through the intersection, getting your lazy ass our of your car and walking over to the cop. Someone did something similar a couple weeks ago only they were asking my hubby directions. She stopped at a green light forcing everyone behind her to merge into the other lane and waved my hubby over and started asking him directions. My hubby made her go through the intersection and pull over before he helped her.

I have a meeting with Marlene in an hour. If it doesn’t go well you can bet I’ll be back here to bitch. I’ve never left her desk not pissed off at her so we’ll see. She asked me to come down there this time. Kind of bugs me because I won’t have my files to back me up if she tries to pin something on me. She better just stick to this little fake polite attitude she’s picked up if she wants to get anywhere. I think she’s learned her bitchiness won’t get her anywhere with me. Last time she wanted to meet I refused because she was being a total bitch, plus I could see the meeting would have been pointless. All meetings with Marlene are pointless but I tolerate most of them. When she was being a bitch last time though and demanded to meet with me I said “No, I don’t think we need to”. Why would I meet with someone that calls me up, starts yelling and making accusations and demands I take the blame for their mistakes? I don’t play these little games, sorry. Be polite or get nowhere.

I’m like my dad in a sense. You have two choices, you can be polite and treat me like a human and I’ll be nice and even go out of my way to help you. Or you can be an asshole and treat me like a nobody and I’ll treat you the same way. I’ve tried the whole “kill them with kindness” thing and it doesn’t work on most people. I will go out of my way to help someone that’s been kind to me, if you’ve been a prick to me, I’ll tell you I’m busy (even if I’m not) and that I won’t be able to get to it until next week, sorry. 🙂 I’m sure this came from somewhere else but my dad always said “I can be your best friend or your worst enemy, it’s your choice”. That’s pretty much my motto as well.

I’m not saying I’m right by being this way. It’s just how I am.
