Intense... Me?
I have lots to share today. Let's start here......
My current intern has been a nightmare - I have ZERO luck on this (more to come) - lately, she's been completely useless and "checked out" so I stopped giving her any *real* work. Today was her last day and she gave me a card thanking me for the experience. In the card, she said wished we had hit it off better (she's a little, shy chinese girl that we could barely get to talk) because I seemed really nice, if not intense..... the card was full of wacky grammar and word choice and I never really thought anything of it.
My Associate read the card after she left today and kind of snickered when he got to the part where she called me intense - I said I thought it was funny too and he asked, "you are being sarcastic, right?" To which I replied, "I'm not intense" and he said "Yes you are!" What! Me??? I don't think I'm intense.... he tried to backpedal his way out of it with an explanation that only pseudo-worked...
Adam thought the whole thing was comical.... he said he totally thought I was intense at work - not that it was a bad thing.... Am I?
