Marketing

You know what makes me uncomfortable? I get incredibly uncomfortable when people A. talk to me with a fake voice B. try to 'sell' me something or C. don't smile. This bothers me so much that my eye starts twitching, I start laughing awkwardly, and I get fidgety trying to look for an exit route. Also, if I force smiles my eye starts twitching. Anyway, I ran into a girl that did all of the above. My gosh. I usually try to avoid those clipboard people, but for some reason I didn't notice her because she blended in with a tree like a chameleon and my usual preventative measures didn't work. I usually approach them first because that way I catch them off guard. Then I utter a greeting that's long enough for me to pass them; for instance, "Hello, good morning! How are you? Have a good day!" smile and then walk away quickly. By the time they realize what has happened I'm too far away to chase. Unfortunately, this girl was so determined that she pursued me and tried to sell XYZ product to me. I don't even remember what it was because I was only concerned about my sanity at that point. She kept pushing for my phone number, but I refused to give it to her. Woman, I don't even give my lab partners my number do you really think I'm going to give it to you? I usually handle these types of things gracefully, but it was rather difficult to abscond, so I had to stop her mid-sentence and make my departure. So dense.

I came across this song again. Old, but still good. It's a good song to get dressed to. Yes, I still do that. Hm, too bad none of them are good looking.
