Some time after our initial conversation we're walking in the hallway after school and I asked her why did she want to be a member of ABC?
Her response: "Because they are known for being ___________ and that's what I am -- a ______________."
(insert negative stereotype in above blank)
And she was as serious as a heart attack.
Then she added, "And I don't want to do all that other stuff they have to do as members. I just want my letters."
That was last spring and I think a part of my jaw is still somewhere on that hallway floor.
We continue to talk and I ask her if she was acquainted with the few women in the building who are members of ABC. She states that she doesn't like any of them and would never talk to them about membership. I ask her if she would consider talking through with them over any misunderstandings that she had. (I had issues with one of the ladies myself).
But just for the response that she gave to my question was enough for me to think through for a whole weekend as to what my response would be cause I honestly did not know what to say to this dummy. When I responded (for those of you who know me) I wasn't as "pleasantly blunt" as I am known to be.
I'll be back later with my response cause I know all those who are reading this thread could use it!!
