you are "interesting"

Post Reply New Topic

Proloader Sergio @ Home Depot, where I work, had the nerve to make fun of me. He asked me if I was trying to hit him with a shopping cart. (I'm a Lot Attendant.) The carts did not go anywhere near him. Then he had the nerve to tell me that I was "interesting" for someone @ home depot. (which I do not disagree with. he did not say it in a rude or mean way. he acted like he was trying to be nice with euphemisms. however, since he has been so friendly for so long, that kind of caught me off guard and made me uncomfortable.)

for the past three weeks, been waking up in the middle of the night coughing. been drinking 6 to 7.5 liters water daily. (usually drink 4.5 to 5 liters). getting tired of drinking so much water. esp since on the way to work, not enough litterboxes. litterboxes @ work often out of order.

emotional overeating

been eating too much lately. no weight gain thus far. however, testosterone might be increasing metabolism. been on testosterone 6 years. i wish i could measure metabolism in terms of calories, instead of just blind guessing.

some dude just knocked on my door a couple of minutes ago and claimed to be from the Pacific Gas and Electric and his job was to make sure my bill was not above a certain amount. (for some reason, i thought he was a scam.) i didn't tell him i thought he was a scam.

annoying alberto had the nerve to scream my name even though i asked him not to.

uhm.. based on reading your writings and growth over years reading your posts ...Yes , You are interesting.
Especially for a Home depot worker ..but interesting to see you grow socially ... just sayin..! ,IMHO
Wasn't sure but originally thought you were a dept manager ? but that job , could be a pain to do ?

Some people say "interesting" in a way that makes it sound like they don't like something but they are trying to be nice about it

Home Depot employees are almost all extroverts, emotional, judgmental. Myers Briggs type. They talk too much. They don't think or work enough. They are too enthusiastic. Neurotypical

They speak ebonics in a vague way

They love to laugh

They act like wild animals

Whenever I see that you've posted something, I read it. I may not reply though.

I like your style of writing, using different words for everyday things. Toilets = litterboxes, for example. And precious lil 'people'. I understand where you're coming from.

"interesting" could be a good thing. (as opposed to "boring"). connotation versus denotation.

not everyone finds the same thing interesting, exciting, or boring.

"exciting" and "interesting" sound like they are good things, but sometimes they are bad. for example, car crashes are more "exciting" than reading a book, but car crashes are worse than reading books (for me). but you can't measure quality. not everyone has the same values and priorities.

some precious lil "people" say something is "interesting", b/c they do not like it, but they are trying to be politically correct, emotionally mature, socially adept, wise, diplomatic, and other euphemisms. that's just psychobabble.

home depot (and kayla's dojo) claim that they value "unity and diversity". and they do appear diverse, in terms of race, sex, and et cetera. however, almost everyone that works there (and almost all of kayla's customers), have the same personality.

they do not give the benefit of a doubt.

they do not consider someone else's perspective. (it appears that they care about a lot of precious lil "people", but everyone they care about thinks and acts just like themselves, and they care about the other ones, vice versa.)

they talk too loudly.

they act like every thought and emotion that goes through their heads, are the latest greatest scientific invention. then when someone else says something (like me), they half listen and grunt "huh" and "what" like they are the etiquette equivalent of "excuse me".

some of them act all "buddy buddy", but the second they think you did something wrong, they act like Dr jekyll and mister hyde.

they rationalize things that they did that i did not like. for example, gaslighting. telling me they don't remember it or it never happened. or telling me that precious lil "people" do it all the time.

they refuse to change a single thing to match my standards, but they insist that i do whatever the f**k they have the nerve to tell me to do, just to satisfy them.

they talk way too vaguely. "can you help me load a litterbox?". "can", "should" and "will" are three different things. and that question does not specify if two or three people are loading the litterbox.

they confuse their tenses. they say "people" as in "most people", but "people" means two or more, not four billion or eight billion.

"sup bro," . (fistbump). something does not always have to be "up". good and bad things happen. sometimes something appears good and ends up bad, and vice versa. no point in celebrating and mourning every slightest thing. (rolls eyes). ie. "cool" and "sucks".

"why?". in statistics, it is extremely difficult to separate correlation versus causation. there could be a lot of different reasons.

Ebonics versus psychobabble

on the other hand, psychobabble is like "adding a negative number".

annoying lil dipshits

and i thought sergio was friendly and i might have felt comfortable confiding in him, but maybe that was just a facade.
