illusion_is_mine This past week was okay, and Happy Easter and Passover to all those who celebrated it. I had to work, but I ended up getting off early. My mom is still recovering from her surgery from last week. She's doing better though.
Okay so I want to rant about one of my coworkers that I've been talking to for a while. I started chatting with Eric after asking him if he played a certain game series. Little did I know he'd follow me to all my lunches, and breaks, and generally come of as annoying. I really just talk to him to pass the time, but I get really annoyed at the fact that he says things like.
Him: You should do democracy too. (He's obsessed with politics, and volunteers for local politicians campaigns, and what not.)
Me:........................
I do not like anyone telling me what I should be doing. I'm a bit of a rebel at heart, and I don't like to be told what I 'should' be doing by people who barely know me. Needless to say It's taken all my resolve to not go off on him a few times. He also told me one day that I "Jump around from game to game too much. You need to stick to one game." Like guy, who the fuck are you? Seriously there is no correct way to play video games. Most people play games to unwind, relieve stress, and just chill out. I've heard many people say that they play whatever games they're in the mood for at that time. That's how I am. Needless to say I don't feel like I should have to explain myself to him. My problem is that I'm too nice, and I never respond appropriately when he says things like this. I guess it's going to take him saying the wrong thing one day for me to go off on him. He needs to take a cold hard look in the mirror and realize he's far from perfect. I could easily point out many of his flaws, but I'm not that type of person.
Basically in short he's a typical "gamer guy", and he lacks self awareness. Most of the people at my job can't stand him, and now I see why that is. He has a horrible personality, and he's just plain boring. I just wish he would leave me alone. I always seem to attract people that I'm not interested in at all. I also blame him for the crush avoiding me probably assuming I'm just like him (which I'm not.) I don't know, but I wish he would leave the hell alone. I liked it better when I sat by myself at lunch, and no one bothered me...lol.
