Receptionists: We All Know What They're Thinking
Have you ever asked a receptionist a question and then when they answered you, it felt like they were mocking you? They probably are; but hey, it's just their nature. Well, I was at the bank a few days ago because my mom's card wasn't working. My mom asked the receptionist what the problem was, and she replied, "You'll need to wait to speak to Ms. (Whatever her name was)." As we are walking to the waiting area I hear the receptionists talking, so I turn around just to glance at what was going on. I see the young lady we were talking to make a face at us, so instinctively I made one back. Obviously, she became very embarressed as her face became a shade of red I've never seen before, and she quickly looked away. While we were waiting I look over into an office and see a woman eating her lunch; she was getting crumbs everywhere. She then proceeded to take out a small air-horn looking object and sprayed air everywhere forcing the crumbs out her keyboard. The lady sitting across from me in the waiting area kept clearing her throat in such a gross way. It sounded non-human. Eh, it was interesting. I always just wonder what the qualifications are to be a receptionist. WANTED RECEPTIONIST: MUST BE HATEFUL, MEAN, AND VICIOUS. I'm not saying that they all are, but quite a few of the ones I've encountered definitely could have gotten that job. So much for an early release day.
