"Hi!"


Today is the day I am trying to retain my good humour. It's just been one of those days. So in an effort to make sure I was on time to work, I got there about 15 minutes early. Since I didn't feel like small talking for 15 minutes, I decided to stall in the building next door. I checked my email, I looked at the food they were selling, then I decided to use the toilet and head to work. I walked into toilet. One stall was occupied. When I came out of the stall, the person who must have been occupying that stall was washing her hands. I went to wash mine as well and she said, "Hi!"

...

What the heck? Are we friends? I mean, I know there are the friendly greetings you give people in certain situations. If you sort of know someone, at work things, etc. But I did not know this girl at all. She just felt that washing our hands together made us instant friends. I disagreed. I gave her a look which I'm sure said, "I am deciding whether you're crazy or just annoying." But c'mon. Is that normal? I think not. Perhaps my sour mood didn't help, but some random girl assaulting me with kindness in the toilet is not the way to "be nice".
