To everyone, but in particular, the people I work with:
1) Stop asking me what's wrong. If we are cool like that, I'll tell you. Otherwise, PISS OFF! If you ask me again, my response is not going to be kind.
2) Stop talking to me like I'm either 5 or ignorant. I'm neither. Speak to me in the manner that you would like to me to speak to you. Do NOT speak to me in a condescending tone because I'm not going to respond. PERIOD. If I've never done it before, then ask me questions to assess whether or not I can handle the task. DO NOT ASSUME I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
But if you KNOW that I've done it before and done it WELL, ASSUME IT'LL BE THAT WAY EACH AND EVERY TIME I DO IT. I'm not going to be GREAT one day and HORRIBLE the next.
If you cannot follow 1 & 2, don't be surprised when I respond to you in a unkind and barely professional manner.
I am NOT in the mood today. PERIOD. So stay in your office and the $%&^ up off my back. Why I gotta be chatty with you to be OK???? Just because I am NOT chatty does NOT mean I have a problem with you. Please check your insecurities at the door. I am not compassionate all like that. If you need your ego stroked, you came to the wrong $%$%&^&$% place.
AAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!
If you ask me if I had lunch already and I say, "No, I'm not hungry," LEAVE IT BE!!!!!! Don't ask me more than once. I DON'T LIKE REPEATING MYSELF TO GROWN FOLKS. I SAID I'M NOT HUNGRY AND I MEANT IT!!! NO, I DON'T WANT ANY OF YOUR FOOD. I'M A GROWN @$$ WOMAN!!! I CAN FEED MYSELF WHEN I'M GOOD AND READY TO. NOW, I SAID NO, LEAVE ME ALONE.
BACK UP!!!
Y'all can't tell when people just don't feel like being bothered? Is this a friggin' cultural difference???? I DON'T FEEL LIKE BEING BOTHERED TODAY! I DON'T WANT TO TALK! I DON'T FEEL LIKE BEING BOTHERED!!!! LEAVE. ME. ALONE.
DAYUM.
