The sad thing, it is clear that you do just this.

I'm talking about even in your company, if u are going to the bathroom and you pass someone in the hall that you don't work with directly I would hope you atleast say Hello.

So my point is she saw me walking toward her and didn't want to speak which made me suspicious
And when you spoke to her, what did she say???

OH WAIT YOU DIDN'T SPEAK TO HER EITHER.

That is what is making all of us suspicious.

Not entirely sure how you will manage that as you would have to attend while simultaneously figuring out a way to leave yourself at home.

The only person nervous in that hallway was you. And if your reputation at work precedes you, she was likely trying to avoid having a conversation with you.

And i believe I said I didn't speak because she wasn't looking at me as we crossed paths.

Even if it's true you certainly have that right.

You did.

So again tell me WHAT WAS THE ISSUE? Are you pissed because you think as one of the few males she should kiss your ass and know-know- you're supposed to be spoken to even though she didn't see you?

Have you been disciplined at this new job yet? I mean work discipline, not your fetish crap.

As a note, I go to the Central Office of my employer frequently and rarely, if ever, am I greeted by random people while walking in the hallway. One will sometimes look to see if I'm wearing an ID (they're nervous sorts there, one reason many are no longer in the classroom).

But that was my whole point. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other. And either you know this and are just trying to find something to do on the long weekend or you actually believe every behavior is racist and that the fast food employee forgot your chicken nugget dipping sauce because he or she is racist. If that is the life and world in which you live, I feel sorry for you.

Why would I need to be disciplined? And let me just say I had to make an adjustment too because I never worked at a job where I was the only YOUNG person. Everyone at the agency is 55 and older so I had to forget about that and still work well with everyone. So maybe that lady will be socializing this time next year once she is used to seeing me.

If you have been working for 14 years, you aren't that young, honey.
