....at the Grinch.

I'm awfully happy that we don't really cross paths too much anymore, but when we do- it's usually not a pleasant experience. He is so nasty and negative.

Yesterday I gave a presentation to the managers and there he was, doing his usual thing; texting my manager with what I'm sure were very snippy messages based on the look on his face.

It's so darned disrespectful. He does it in EVERY meeting, no matter who is presenting. The look on his face says it all.... "Oh SNAP! I'm so funny with the way I cut down other people". Seriously, the look on his face looks down-right evil. I am not exaggerating.

I don't understand why he hasn't been called out for this. It's obvious what he's doing. Maybe I should have called him out while I was giving my presentation.

"Is there something you'd like to share with the rest of us, Grinch?"

Hindsight....

In other news, I'll be away from my blog (and yours) for a few days. One of my previous employees (and now friend) is coming into town and staying with me from tomorrow through Monday morning. I suspect we'll be having a few fun adventures. I plan to take her on the train to and from work on Friday. I just hope that we'll see some interesting people.

...speaking of interesting people. There's a guy that rides the 5:15 train (I'm usually on the 4:20) that gets on the train with his bike. He's REEKED of alcohol every single time I've seen him. He can be a few feet away and I still smell it. You can tell by looking at his face that he's been a friend to the bottle for a long time. Poor guy. I kinda feel sorry for him.

There's also this strange 'couple' that sits where I like to sit (good thing there are three seats, eh?). I sometimes listen into their conversations because they are clearly in that "I wonder if she/he likes me" phase and say all kinds of things to try to nudge some sort of "I like you" phrase out of the other. One of these days I'm going to say, "JUST SAY IT and quit wasting each other's time". Aside from that, the girl is clearly a little challenged in the social skills. Maybe I should give her a script or something. I don't think she's ever going to get this thing off the ground until she learns the fine art of conversation.

I think this post went all over the place. I'm clearly not very focused. I hope that improves as the day goes on, for my employer's sake.
