Work Imitates Life

[peroxidepirate]

Right. In the past three months, I've been spurned personally and professionally by the same woman.

Remind me not to get in a position where that's even possible. Ever again.

And all the rage and frustration that I wouldn't let myself feel over the personal sleight? Right here, all bubbling up.

I shouldn't take it personally. The only reason she didn't take the job is that we couldn't pay her enough, and that's not my fault. And it's not like she actually rejected me on a personal level, either; she just found someone else before I got up the nerve to ask her out. Still... sucks that I'm now, again, looking for an assistant manager (as I have been for most of the past six months), right along with being single with no real prospects (as I have been for too long to even contemplate sanely). Grrrrrrr.

the results are in. we hate her. you are sooo much better . really your all kinds of perfection. you would have made a kick ass girlfriend. and a great boss. rage away. i'm in comfort mode right now and am great at telling people how amazing they are when in this mode. also i hand out cookies*heaps lapful of cookie goodness* i hate when it fels like somthing small is personal. it normaly isnt but it still feels like it which sucks beyond belife. but its 100% ok to feel that way. we're all human. ... or are we???? prehaps sh's really an alian who had to leave earth nd didnt want to risk falling madly and tragicly in love with you ??? does that make yo feel better? because i can also do the shes a crazy bitch tangent and the their is someone out there for everyone and you jjust havent found them yet? or the love sucks let us eat junk food and watch movies line? i like this line alot. it works for me. it works really well when i'm allowed to pick crappy movies and throw things at the screen like you would at the rocky horror picture show. and my friends/ helpless victems let me talk at the screen or as they call it "yell " . know you have an infenent supply of lines// actions. all of whihc i will throw myself inot with massive amounts of glee.

Thanks, hon.

"the love sucks let us eat junk food and watch movies line? i like this line alot. it works for me."

Yes, this one is the best! Because she and I still get along very well, and I think we'll be able to get past all this and be friends -- as we were for a minute between the first spurning and the second one. So better to say that it's love (and work) that I hate, rather than her.

In fact it's been junk food and re-reading very very good fanfic tonight. But that's not so different.
