The 11th Week
Ahhhhh!!!! It's just been one of those days when I feel like beating the hell out of a punching bag. This is my 11th week on the job and I thought things were running more smoothly until now. I feel so frustrated that I've been grumbling since I've come home from work and worked out for half an hour on the elliptical. Why does everything have to be a struggle? I was so frustrated earlier today that I could feel my face turn red. Ahhhh!!!! I'm a pretty mellow person too so that must mean I was really frustrated and upset.
I was almost as mad as the time this guy accused me of hitting his spotless red Honda Civic. That was about a month and a half ago when I was carpooling with my coworker. The parking spaces are pretty tight at work and quite tricky to park in especially next to the columns. So when my colleague pulled up next to the red Civic, I noticed that the driver was still in his car. I didn't have much room to get out, but I made sure not to hit his car since it looked spotless. When I turned around to grab my bag in the backseat, he was already right behind me inspecting his car door and began yelling at me.
"I heard it! I heard it! You hit my car!"
I swear I didn't hit his car. I knew he was watching so I was very careful and made sure there was space between the door and his car. But he wouldn't hear it.
"I knew you were going to hit my car. I was waiting for it. That's why I was sitting there waiting. You're so lucky that it didn't leave a dent."
Ahhhhh!!! I hate paranoid people! Of course it didn't leave a dent, I didn't even hit it, moron! That was not the best way to start my morning. I make sure to never park next to that guy now.
It was quite funny though... recently I saw a large Ford Explorer parked really close to his car two days in a row and the spot is marked for small cars only too. Then one day I noticed he didn't park in his usual spot probably to avoid the Explorer, but the funny thing is it was right next to him again. I had a good laugh to myself.


Hang in there Michelle!
