These two remotely-working recently hired girls (early 20s, they looked like fresh out of college) that I’ve never met before are part of the graphics design/marketing team and they came into work today to help us with a promotion we’re launching. I was explaining to them how everything is conducted around here and the fat one goes to me, “Oh I know all about that because I used to work at a pizza place,” to which I responded “okay so you must be a seasoned expert then.” Then she felt a need to justify herself, “oh that was before, I’m on my wellness journey now.” There was an awkward silence and neither me nor the other girl said anything for like 10 seconds.
The thing is I didn’t say that to be a jerk because I’m genuinely a nice guy when I first meet people but what I said to her got automatically taken as “oh yeah, I’m used to this, another slight to add to the laundry list of slights.” (ps - nothing even remotely “slight” about you babe x
)
