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:

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. :)
