Today was a day which I was able to wake up and not have to rush off to anything. A day I have not had in quite some time. Tomorrow I will be waking up early again so I am taking advantage of it. Yet, my chickens need to be fed, so I am up and heading out to see them.
I took the advantage of today to work on things with leisure. Eventually it was time to head over to my friend's house, Jody, who was having me over for dinner. My boss, who I was friends with before she was my boss, was also coming over along with Ted. Jody and I were equally bummed as we wanted to eat in peace and quietly sit on our own individual couches in the living room and watch tv in silence. A casual routine which I enjoy, he gets to watch tv and not be bothered, I get to hang out on a couch and relax.
Dinner was fine and the two guests left on their own. Some how I had pissed off my boss who called Jody's house phone. He missed the call, and then my cell phone rang. I thought she was trying to get a hold of Jody so I put her on speaker. To both of our surprise she began to scream at me about how disrespectful I was to her and how it won't happen anymore and how she is tired of it. How patients don't like me and tell her things that I am saying about her. I am stunned not just by her tone, but the lies. Jody has a look of shock on his face, and he tries to speak over her to let her know she is on speaker phone. He then tells me to hang up. I tell him if I do, it will only get worse for me later. I proceed to apologize to her and remind her we were in a social setting and I meant no disrespect. It didn't matter, it fell on deaf ears and she told me how we would talk about it next week-then she hung up.
Jody was pissed and shocked saying he had never heard her speak to anyone like that before and sincerely apologized for getting me tied up with her. He said she is fortunate she did not speak to me like that while she was at the house as he would have not allowed it. He said no one had the right to speak to anyone like that, and didn't have the right to speak to one of his friends that way.
Jody tried to call Ted, but his phone was off (he was one of the evenings guests) then he called Jane which the call went straight to voicemail.
I'm not sure what to expect for work next week...but being it is late on a Saturday night...I am not looking forward to it.
