The Pink Shoe Diaries

i think, in many ways, being completely honest at all times is charming. it's always refreshing to be around someone who says what they want, to whomever, all the time. in fact, i think about people like that and sometimes i am jealous. how nice it must be to be totally free from social constraint (verbally speaking). with this type of person, you always know where you stand..and you never get that creeping suspicion that you are being bullsh*tted. having such a person in the office can be very entertaining...

until, of course, she calls the roofer on whom a very important account depends a "fucking retard".

i kid you not. J, a normally blunt but somewhat restrained person, was so infuriated by the fact that this somewhat simple roofer kept saying "614 Marlborough Street" instead of "146 Marlborough Street" that she called my boss into the room, pointed at the poor roofer and said something along the lines of "this fucking retarded guy does not understand what he's doing".

charmed, i'm sure.
