So, may I just rant for a second? Why is it that people feel the absolute need to talk to me so early in the morning when clearly I'm just trying to settle in and mind my own business. I'm sure I give all the proper "please don't chat with me" cues (without being rude), and I've worked here long enough that people already know my personality, but it's like they still want to torture me??? Especially today, I felt awful and sick Tuesday, called off yesterday, and now I'm back and you would think people would leave me alone since there is still a high chance I'm not feeling well, but no... Please, just let me be an introvert. I would love nothing more than if I could sit at my desk with my music quietly. If you want to talk I'm much more sociable after 11 am lol.

[ExquisiteGypsy]

That sucks. Some people are just happy morning people and aren't aware enough to know when others just want some quiet time earlier in the day.

I hope you feel better soon. It may not be much consolation, but you really look fantastic!

[jemly]

you sound like me. xo (hope you're feeling better, you look gorgeous)

[malday]

It's so frustrating haha. I am feeling a bit better, thank you jem

[TopazBeth]

SO much sympathy. Let's get "Please do not disturb the introvert" signs.

You look retro fabulous today!

[JazaChai]

I am this way as well, and am lucky enough to work in an office where most of my coworkers are too. I can do professional conversations first thing if I have to, but for the love of god don't make me make personal or small talk. Just ew. Even if I like you.

When I get to a point in my career where my job title supports this level of attitude, I'm going to get some sort of sign for my desk that says "If it's before 10am you'd better have coffee."

[ExquisiteGypsy]

Agreed. This is my favourite coffee mug of all time and captures my feelings on the subject quite well:

[malday]

Oh thank goodness, I just thought I was being moody and crazy but I'm glad someone else can relate haha. Thank you!!

[TopazBeth]

I can definitely relate haha. Especially in the mornings. At one job my boss actually pulled me aside one day to advise me be more social. My only thought was ".....but why?"

[4Ali4]

Ugh, I had a boss that did something like that once too - I would ask questions when appropriate, make small talk occasionally, but I was an intern in a very small department with a strange mix of people and mostly just wanted to do my work.

He told me I was so quiet and needed to make more noise?! I was so confused, does he want me to sing or just make random noises? And then a week or two later he just lets out this loud noise, I don't even know how to describe it, like a loud, long yodel-yawn - I guess he did want me to make random noises.

One of my coworkers makes comments about how I don't like him because I don't talk to him, but he always insists on everyone sitting down in his office and what should be a 2-minute work conversation turns into this marathon chat about anything/everything.

[KatieKabam]

see... I think it is mostly OLDER (dare I say white) men who are VERY concerned about how chatty or friendly a woman is or isn't. I have seen this scenario many times and they are usually the culprits.

They're the same ones telling women to smile on the streets. 😛

[Harpier82]

Oooh!  I hate when strange people (you're right, usually older men) tell me to smile or "be happy" when I'm just going about my day.  First of all, I'm not UNhappy; I'm just not hosting a talk show.  And either way, I'm not bothering you.  My mood is none of your business!

[KatieKabam]

I've never been a morning person - and it's totally not a phase.

My mom used to have a h-e-ll of a time trying to get me out of bed for school.

These days, I'm running into my office building and trying to snag an elevator WITHOUT 5-6 extra loud, chatty people. It's TOO MUCH.

[malday]

[KatieKabam]

LAWLZZZZZ! Yep. this. all of this.

[malday]

I will wait 5 extra minutes to ride an elevator alone haha

[Julia526]

Thought i had forty minutes, actually had twenty. I might  redo this so the perfectionist in me is happy.

Amazing eye look and that lip colour looks so so pretty on you!

[ExquisiteGypsy]

What a superb colour combination! You are so talented.

[Harpier82]

This is one of the most interesting and well-executed "halo" eye looks I've ever seen.  It's an eye application I struggle with, but THIS I've got to try, especially since I adore orange.

[TopazBeth]

So fun! With the eyeshadow colors you make me think of a beautiful tropical bird.
