I'm not one to beat around the bush. These days I like to get right to the point and stop wasting time. The other day, I over heard these two co-workers talk about meeting to discuss something. The girl says to the other girl, "I really need to talk to you about this soon." The other girl responded by saying, "Okay, well do you want to go out to Simply Pasta and talk there? The other girl replys, "Ummm, okay sure. I guess."
I got up to see who it was and they were two new girls with the firm. It was funny cause the new kids that come to the firm like to think they're hot shit. Little did they know, going to Simply Pasta would not allow them to talk unless they went to a lunch late. It's always crowded and loud. Why couldn't they just talk in the office? It wasn't like they had to do it in private and it was hot shit. They were two nobodys and all they had to do was walk into a conference room and discuss it. But no. They would walk down two blocks. Have lunch and talk. So what's wrong with that? Well it was 9:30 in the morning and the girl said she really needed to talk to her soon. Later, I would see the two in the cafe getting coffee and over heard them chatting about clothes. They could have spoken to each other in the elevator on the way down instead of waiting til 12 pm.
I don't know...maybe it's just me, but I like to get right to the point. I don't want to wait and have lunch or dinner just to get to where I want to get to. Let's cut the crap and spit it out now. Show me the goods. Tell me the news. I don't have time to waste.
I'm having lunch with these two girls the other day. On the way back to work, one girl says she wants to show us something. Her cell phone rings and she answers it. It was obvious that it wasn't important, but she made us wait a good 3 minutes before she wasted our time showing us a pair of ugly shoes. I needed to get back to work and do nothing and I didn't have time to waste. Let's get to the point. While talking shit on the phone, point to the ugly shoes and let us talk amongst ourselves while you talk non-sense on your phone. We will say it's ugly and start walking back to work while you're still on the phone. Once she hangs up, we can then tell her what we thought about the shoes. And since they were ugly, we took it upon ourselves to drag her away from the store because we didn't need her to add anymore tackiness to her outfit.
Where am I going with this?? I just like to get to the point on stuff. And if you can't get to the point, then I'll just walk away. Don't bother me if you can't get right to it. Or could it be that I'm just mean and unfair? Mean and unfair...that's a whole other story. We'll get back to that another time.
What?? Get to the point now??
It's time for my favorite show now. Bye.
