And some days you feel like everyone else in the world is a nut, except you. Today is one of those days. I work at the information desk at my school. I was not originally scheduled to work today, but it is also Homecoming weekend. My co-workers who were scheduled had already planned to go to the game downtown. I could use the extra money, so I agreed to work from 9 to 5 while they go and enjoy themselves (aka drink themselves into a stupor). Anyhow, I woke up this morning feeling surly because I just was not looking forward to hanging out by myself for over 8 hours with only minimal human interaction. Like I've said before, I am an introverted extrovert, and I like being around people the majority of the time.
Unfortunately, there have been a few people today that have just not been very nice and make me wish I was at home. I wasn't trying to purposely make them angry. I was telling them the facts about our University. Sometimes, the politics just don't work to the advantage of the student. I don't make the rules. So, if something is inconvenient for you, I'm sorry, but I am just a student. I can't change how things work for one person because then we would be making exceptions for everyone, and mass chaos would ensue.
I especially like when people try to tell me that they think they know how to solve the problem after they come up to the desk and ask for my help. Really? You don't have to be a jerk when I am telling you what to do so that you can do your laundry. It really annoys me when people won't admit that they are wrong. Suck it up!
I'm feeling really cynical today, obviously. And I still have to go to the grocery store this evening because I have nothing in the refrigerator. Yay!
