Yesterday my boss gave me a key to the office...a little background about my office: NO ONE gets a key unless they've been here for a while...I started in February. So now I get to hear my whiney co worker whine about that too. I told her this morning she needed to listen to that song that says "If you need to know God's plan for your life...get in the spirit and let the Lord minster to ya" because she's OBVIOUSLY not cut out for the corporate world. I think she'll make a wonderful preschool teacher. She will most definately fit in around a bunch of toddlers. Ugh. Then the other day I asked her what holidays did we, as a company, observe (by observe I mean are off work for). She says "I can't tell you that, we're hazing you...we like to see who shows up on off days" I PROMISE 'bitch please' was on the tip of the smallest taste bud on my tongue but I refrained (way to go - gold star for self control!) Instead I said, "I pledge in 2001...when did you cross?" She was like "I'm not greek" and I said "exactly, and if you don't tell me I'll just let Solomon know when he's calling me wondering where I am that no one bothered to tell me when the holidays were so I just picked my own." She was like "oh no..." and I was like "oh yeah...now are you going to tell me or am I wasting my time effort and energy..." *smh* I just WISH I could carry a video camera around with me all day...you would not believe some of the stuff I encounter. WOOSAH!
Anyhow, I'm hoping I get completely caught up today and I even came into work a little earlier to do it. (funny how I came in to work early and I'm writing in my blog...so much for being productive huh?)
Nothing really interesting happened on the train last night or this morning but I do have one question (men help me out).... WHY DO YOU THINK IT'S OK TO YELL THE FOLLOWING AND ACTUALLY EXPECT A RESPONSE OTHER THAN A FROWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????
1. Eh Shawty!
2. *whistle* mm mm mm
3. DAYUM!
4. Sup lil mamma
5. *wink*lick out tongue*raise eyebrow*smile*
etc etc etc...
I mean really folks, do I LOOK like I'm going to get wet in the drawers behind some gold front wearing, hair twistin, pants down to the ankle havin, white tee sportin...THUG? Seriously, get a clue.
Today I was called stuck up by one guy and a bitch by another...my response was "Thanks, I'm glad you noticed. I work hard to maintain this persona" and kept walking. I guess that's life in the ATL? :-/
G'day folks!

That lady is so jealous...was that "shoe girl?" So...you're getting hazed..."WOW!" I'm mad that she told you that!!! Did you get the holidays? Some of the men floating around ATL can't accept a lady who respects herself, and you being TASHA gave a great response!
