well that was nice (Everybody got a present but me)
Edited on Thu Dec-23-04 11:13 AM by WoodrowFan
I think our Asst Director doesn't like me. She came in and made a big show of giving the woman next to me a Christmas present, then made a point of leaving one on the desk of the woman who sits across from me. (There's only 3 of us with desks in this room). None for me?? gee. (and no, the three women aren't friends)

Ok, I confess, my feelings are a bit hurt. I think she's mad because I led the effort to redo the parking here (I was tired of DC parking tickets! and wanted them distributed more fairly) and she lost her personal choice spot! Oh well, I'd rather have a parking space than a box of cookies that I can't eat! :P

3. Petty, petty, petty! I'm GLAD she lost her choice parking spot!
Just enjoy the fact that every single day she drives to work, she gets furious about losing the parking spot! You will always have the stength to stand up for yourself, and she will never have class. Happy holidays!

4. that is really mean-spirited of her. and obviously asinine.
I don't see her career going too far, if she has to be that small and is that open about it.

BTW, just out of curiosity, does the office traditionally exchange gifts? Did your co-workers give gifts to her?

5. no and no
No we don't. Well, we have a gift exchange at the Christmas Party (Which I couldn't make becasue me wife had to work late) but we don't exchange gifts in the office. The two women involved didn't give her anything.

We did all get a box of cookies from our boss though.

6. What a little insignificant speck of humanity...
You should go buy her something!!!! Maybe a mirror as a reminder that she has to live with herself.

Cheer up! :hug: It's her loss.

9. Sadly -
As I have heard on a show that shall remain nameless -

"When People Show You Who They Are - BELIEVE Them!"

That woman shows everyone who she is.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas!!
