Why bother

My colleague asked me yesterday, "How can you stand sitting in the same room with the person who doesn't even like you? Out of everyone here, you are the only one I met that can actually do that." I just smiled back, but what choice do I have, the place has been designated with my name written on it. I admit that even though it's only been a week, it is not easy. People that came to my room to have a conversation will end up being poached by "akak"that leave zero room for me to participate in the conversation, and in the end, I would do my own work. "Akak" is also trying to make my life as hard as "akak" can, taking classes from other people and passing it to me, despite objections for the lecturer themselves and "akak" was pissed when one of my colleague actually volunteered to take one class off my hand because I am currently a bit packed.

I do wonder how I can actually survive in that environment, I am by nature a very talkative individual. I guess why bother too much in pleasing a person who doesn't like you, just a waste of my time and energy. I am in my own world, I do my job, I clock in and I clock out...so why bother?


"The way I see it is, the more people that hate me, the less I have to get along with".

"Forgive your enemies and be nice to them. It drives them crazy."

That's my motto. *grin*

You can fix your behaviour, you can't fix hers. And the way she acts, it is obvious to others that she's a petty, tyrannical sort and that drives their esteem of her deeper underground.

So keep the Mother Teresa smile, chill and always be the better person. Because you know you *are* the better person.

*hugs*

I guess you just have to act as normal as you can be huh? . sebab kalo org tu x suka kita obiously tu dia punya problem...

Kalau kita I practice avoidance, tapi sebab moto baru kita nak jadi cool, kawan jelah mcm biasa gamaknya..
