Earlier Today


While at work today I was approached by a female co-worker who goes by the name of "Hollywood" while on the clock.

The problem with "Hollywood" is that she has a skewed viewpoint of the world. With a nickname like that you might think that she is blemish-free and everyone wants a piece of her. In fact, the complete opposite is true. Here's an example:

Crazy
So...with this being said, you can imagine how I felt when she took it upon herself to come and talk to me while I was busy. Normally I try and avoid communication with her at all costs (for the sake of not having to dip any part of my body in hydrochloric acid), but she caught me at a time when I was busy and unable to defend myself. This is how it went down.

Her: Matty, I was telling my family about you yesterday...

Me: Really? Uh, why? Why is that?

Her: Well because you do basically everything around here and you are the best.

Me: Uh, thanks. *tries to think of something to say with no luck but is thankfully rescued from the situation when another co-worker enters the scene, allowing him to escape*

While what she said about me doing everything and being the best is completely and utterly true, it was a really awkward situation that I didn't appreciate being placed into. If I had a Sonic Screwdriver I would have used it on just about anything in the room to alleviate the circumstances.

I don't foresee this being the end of my run-ins with the evil super villain-ess, but for now I can rest peacefully with the knowledge that she can't harm me at home. :)
