My life is relatively similar Monday through Thursday. I wake up between seven to seven-thirty (depending on if I feel like taking a shower ;). I get ready for work which doesn't include eating, but does consist of many yawns while I slothfully slide my feet across the carpet between the bathroom and my bedroom.
I get to work and secretly step into my isle of cubicles. I silently slide into my seat. The reason I try to be so ninja-like is because of the lady seated directly behind me. She seems to be a good person I suppose... but that is irrelevant for this story. She is the most annoying person I know. This is not an exaggeration. Another girl and I have made a list of all the things that annoy us about her the most. It is over a page. So it's not just me being nit-picky this time, which I generally am. This lady, I'll call her Sha'quan'da. Sha'quan'da will jump into a conversation randomly to give her two cents. I could care less for her dirty change. I understand that scrunching people in cubicles makes it is easy to eavesdrop on others, but that doesn't mean you should reply to the people one might be eavesdropping on. Saying all this makes me feel dumb, as if I think that I only talk to smart people. False. I talk to stupid people on a daily basis. I live in Utah for goodness sakes. But there is something disturbing about Sha'quan'da.
I think the most annoying thing about her is the way she phrases some of her sentences. She is super loud on and off the phone which makes it more difficult to ignore her (fruitless to ignore her, but oh how I try). We are supposed to make sure our systems reflect the customer's current address among other things at the beginning of our call. This is how Sha'quan'da asks for the info, and I quote - “May I have your name for me please? - May I have you address for me please? - May I have... for me please? For me PLEASE? FOR ME PLEASE”!? - Put a bullet in my head FOR ME PLEASE! I hate it! Sticks and stones may break my bones but these words will always haunt me.
Not only is she annoying but she makes me feel uncomfortable. Sometimes she will say something that I find stupid and I'll call her on it and she'll then laugh and slap my shoulder or whatever seems to be closest. I have recently started to just stand but lean against my cubicle's counter-top-table-thing to be further away from her. These are the main things about her that annoy me... I'll let you know if anything else reaches the top of the charts.
