So, we had a new guy start at work. He’s an okay guy but a little bit overly… enthusiastic, I think, is the word.
I’ll just be completely honest and say that he annoys me- he likes to talk a lot and I’m not into that. At all. And since we work with the public all day and have to put on happy faces (something I haven’t done in years- I’ve spent the last decade and a half working alone in a cubicle), I crave moments of silence. I have to make small talk with people all day long and it exhausts me.
This guy (I’ll call him Mac [and all other names have been changed to protect the guilty/innocent]), is on my last nerve. And it only slightly has to do with what I’m about to tell you.
But first a word from our sponsors!
