ok nuf said it doesn't really matter the reasons its her problem not mine, do I hear a round of applause as I reach the conclusion all you lot have reached long ago? S
I'm the type that ignores greetings like that at work too and I'll tell you why. First off, I'm not happy being there. Secondly, some people just don't want to see your face. Greeting a co worker is fine and dandy, but not when you see them every day. How to handle people like me? Keep every conversation work related. You take it from there.
hmm.. i used to get hurt feelings from this kind of behavior... actually i cried when i first started working at my current job because i wasn't emotionally stable anyway (was ending a long term relationship, just getting over some serious depression, weight gain,, etc etc) and had just started working somewhere new, and as a few of us were leaving for the night, the manager was saying bye to the ppl ahead of me, and i was walking right past her and she totally ignored me, even though i was smiling at her about to say goodnight, so yeah... i felt incredibly dumb for expecting her to say bye.. but i did expect her to say bye, and then i cried about it and well now, i'm still kinda sensitive, so i save my hellos and goodbyes for ppl who care... or those who say it first might not be the best way to handle things, but that's where i'm at right now... but yeah... man i'm longwinded tonight... the ppl here have good suggestions, and happyhippyflower brings up a good point: some ppl just don't want to be nice and friendly at work.
Maybe the poor girl has something wrong with her. Maybe she is terrified of people, maybe she is spent after saying hello or goodbye to a few random people that she isn't comfortable with. Maybe she dreads waking up in the morning and seeing people that she doesn't really know. Maybe the people she is only semi familiar with are the worst people to see for her because she isn't sure whether or not she should say hello and by the time she has decided it is too late and now she feels like a complete fool which only propagates the problem sending her into an unending cycle of discomfort and confusion everytime she sees your silly mug.
awww your very kind thankyou, and i really like the varied discussion people have had on this thread too S
it doesn't hurt...... it kinda pisses me off that people can be that stuck up that they're too good to return a simple hello.....
ive ignored people when im pissed off, usually i think to myself afterwards 'did they deserve that' then realise that i dont care.
Stay strong, people are fucking idiots... Think of it this way, a few of them is ignoring you cause they're idiots, the rest are just too scared to stand out so they're doing it too, it might not make you feel that much better but it shows how pathetic they are, besides you seriously don't even wanna be friends with people like that, no matter how desperate you are, if I was you I'd really give them a reason to ignore you One of the funniest things I've ever tried with that stuff, was this group of kids that had this idea they were better than everyone else... Well they were (ofcourse) ignoring me... One day I sat down in the school couch thingie, and they walked over and told me to move, I didn't even look at them... But I'd taken my shoes off, so they took them.. I still didn't look at them, then 4 of them walked over, grabbed me and lifted me as if to throw me (I didn't even feel like resisting ), but just as they did about 15 of my friends walked in so they were forced to lay me back on the sofa, find my shoes, put 'em on my feet and then fuck off Outcasts rule!
In my First Philosophy Lesson...This Girl...Fiona sat Next to me... And I was Like...'Hello'...And she was All...Hmpf... So for Like the Whole 3Hours she Sat with Her Back to me...Even though I was Sitting Right Next to Her... Biatch...But Hey...Lalala...
