Working....
Well, I'm having to work today since it is year-end and we have closings. I can tell I'm not happy about it because I'm being a bit short with people.
Our sales manager came up while I was making copies at around 10:30 or so. She asked if I had a bunch, and I said "a handful". So then she asks if she can slide one in. Okay, to me, "a handful" is five. This is not too long a wait - at least not to my mind. It's not like I said "a stack" or something.
It's probably an over-reaction, but then again, I've been here since 7 am working on year-end stuff. I live an hour away, so I had to leave home at 6. She lives 10 minutes from here (tops - she lives in the same city as the office) and got here less than 15 minutes before this happened.
My reply might have been a bit "snippy" as she put it, but it's a bit annoying that she just sweeps in that way. It probably wasn't her intention, but it certainly felt that way.
