SUPER ELITE UPPER TIER
As I'm walking down the parking lot to the entrance of my work, I see a pretty lady about 50 yards in front of me making her way to the entrance. Now, to kind of paint the picture of my office building, it is huge. It's only 4 stories tall, but it probably covers the space of 2 to 3 football fields. American football. Not sure if that makes a difference, but I want to make sure the picture is clear. The entrance I use to go in each morning is a entrance that not many people go in. Mainly because it's not close to anything except for my company and one other. And even then, it's only close for my company if you happen to work on the far side I do.
So it's rare that I see people use this entrance a lot. Yet, this morning, a fairly attractive lady makes her way to the door. But when she gets there, she stops, looks through the glass, and then pulls out her phone and starts playing with it. Now, this door is a public access. No badge required. So I'm a little confused as to why she stopped. As I get to the stairs leading to the doorway she turns around and looks at me and I say hi. As I approach her, I say, "Is the door locked?", quite puzzled as to why it would be. She takes her sunglasses off and says, "No", and smiles.
At this point I've just reached the doorway. Confused, I ask, "Are you going in?" To which she replies, "Yes. I was just waiting for someone to open the door."
Keep in mind, this lady has nothing in her hands except a phone. So I say, "Ummm... I was like 50 yards behind you. Why were you waiting for me to open the door?" And she says, "I shouldn't have to open doors for myself."
I'm literally floored at this moment. Like who thinks this way?!? She then says, "Are you going to open the door?" As I pull myself back together, I think for a second and say, "No. I shouldn't have to open doors either. I didn't know that was a thing, but I agree with your views now."
Well, this makes her mad. She gives a huff and says, "Just open the door so we can go in." I smile and shake my head. "No way. I don't open doors. In fact, I'm 30 minutes early, so I can wait a little bit for someone to open the door."
She is pissed at this point. She gives me that bitter head turn with a look of disgust as she opens the door and goes inside. Without letting it touch me, I slide in behind her. I don't understand how people like this get through life?
So, anyway, that's how I met one of our new vice presidents this morning.
