Nice touch with the “Disco Snails” I was bawling while watching the video. As for Wray & Nephew, they had to stay at the store. But, that’s what a “Big Gulp” is for…?
I have never had delusions about you. Only hope…
I totally agree with you and your friend. Yes, I am very cautious. And, I’m glad that you are taking accountability. Were you expecting me to make another move, again? Did you want me to be the first one to talk? I have made five polite attempts to talk to you since the note in hand that included an embrace with the gentle pressure of my hand almost in your’s . And looked directly into your eye’s when I uttered an unusual gratitude of thanks. That was one.
Before the note and black nylon gloves, I guess you already had convened with your regular group of worker’s on your motives. So, you were comfortable with your intentions since you reassured your self with your coworkers. They stared at both of us as you came out from behind the counter to hand me the two cup’s of coffee more genially graceful with both our two pairs of hands embracing slightly, again. I even said, “Oh…!” Because my brain barely understood at that moment the action. That was two.
The same day that I sent the bouquet and was told by the sender that you weren’t there. Your Hyena of a friend called my number later in the evening trying to confirm if I had the right store and the right person. And, I don’t know if you were there at that time in silence by the phone or you really didn’t come to work. But, I told her, “Yes, I know who I was giving the bouquet to. The person’s named (Name) who’s long and slender wearing glasses. That was three.
I caught on quick when you stopped wearing your glasses. I remember your Hyena of a friend and one of the other girl’s were trying to push you up to the front counter without your glasses. You were telling them, “No! No!” You were trying to hold yourself back. I could see that you were terrified. Like Linus from the Peanuts gang losing his blanket or one being born from the wound and entering life for the very first time. Your security and bindings were stolen from you. You probably felt naked.
It was afternoon and I had just shown up with my mother. I hadn’t situated the meal plan yet since nature was calling and I needed to answer. I was walking towards the restroom at the same pace as you were going to check one of the trash bins close to the entrance door. You actually had cut me off coming at my left side being a little faster than me. I said jokingly looking directly at you, “How dare you cut in front of me!”
You did look at me with a quick glance then turned away and kept walking…that was four. You were rolling a wet dry mat couched down on the floor aggressively. My mother had knocked back into her old lady snooze state while I was finishing a statement for work. I drifted my eye’s off of my IPad screen to see what you were doing. And for a three second count we locked eye’s with each other before looking away. That was five.
And actually the situation would be three out of five because it was both of us making the attempt. Do you agree?
I’m also cautious because I do have a past. About eleven year’s ago, I was accused by another female associate for Sexual Harassment. Her lawyer asked me, “In this case that you are being accused for misconduct toward’s another female. Define what Harassment means to you?” I took a deep breath exhaling the carbon dioxide from my lungs. And said, “Well, her ASS meant nothing to me!” Just kidding!!!
About eleven year’s ago, I was working in a grocery store in Midtown City. I was still newly transitioning into my new position as a Backup Bookkeeper and Booth Clerk Attendant. I met another Backup Bookkeeper/ Booth Clerk Attendant that wanted to move back up to the Front End. She wanted to become a Front End Supervisor, so she was happy when I arrived as well as all of the other Front End Associates.
I’m pretty sure that anybody like me who enters another job environment setting wants to observe, study, and report before gaining the confidence to say something one shouldn’t without clearance. I met all of the board members like the Store Manager, Assistant Store Manager, Another Assistant Store Manager, Front End Supervisor, Assistant Front End Supervisor, the Primary Book Keeper, the Back Up Book Keeper, the Front End, and all the other different departments within the store.
I took noice that there were more Chiefs than Indians. And noticed that associates kept their conversations to a small. There seemed to be No sign of life. No humility and laughter. I felt within myself an Eerie-ness. An Eerie-ness that had all my senses on alert. One being careful because the walls have ears as the back of people’s heads wear eyes. I got a long very well with the Front End Associates and all the other different departments. They were happy to see a new face, my face, and looked upon me like hope.
Well, I still had been getting adjusted to my position. The Primary Book Keeper made sure that I wasn’t comfortable and not in a training manner. To Be Continued… -DK
