MS geeks suck - Part 2
Today I had another encounter with the socially awkward MS geek from my previous post.
Note: This isn't the second time I've encountered him since my previous post. I just haven't posted about my other encounters because I've been trying to ignore him for the past month. He seriously gets on my nerves.
What really bothers me is that he acts like we know each other, like we're friends or something, and tries to joke around with me. Several friends have commented that he's probably trying to flirt, but I am so NOT interested and find his advances annoying and extremely unwanted.
So, about today...
I was in the copy room making copies of "Fur Elise" from my piano teacher's music book. Socially awkward MS geek walked into the copy room to pick up his print-outs from the copy machine/printer that I was using. I had several print-outs in the stack, so he had to go through and sort out what belonged to him. As he stood there sorting through the papers, he glanced at what I was making copies of and said in that condescending tone he seems to have perfected, "Piano Adventures? What am I going to do with you?"
What are you going to do with me? WTF.
How about leave me alone? I hate you, socially awkward MS geek.
He handed me my stack of print-outs, and as he was walking away noticed that he still had one more of my print-outs. He reached out to hand it to me, but when I started to take it, he wouldn't let go. I tried to wrench it away, and finally he let go, grinning ear-to-ear and obviously proud of himself for being so "funny."
My face, on the other hand, was completely straight. I hope I looked as annoyed as I felt.
Ever since my first uncomfortable encounter with socially awkward MS geek, I've gone out of my way to avoid areas where I think he might be lurking. It's not easy. He sits down the hallway from mine, and he tends to eat lunch in the common area by the elevators. I've become a mole, hiding out in my office and walking around only when I think it might be safe.
You might be wondering what makes him so repulsive to me. It's a strange vibe that I get, and I just don't feel comfortable around him. One time I was walking down the hallway where he was eating lunch, and the entire time I was walking, he just stared at me with this stern look on his face. It was genuinely scary.
I recently told a coworker about socially awkward MS geek and what happened the first time I encountered him. My coworker said he knew exactly who I was talking about, and socially awkward MS geek makes him feel uncomfortable too!!
At least I'm not alone in feeling this way. Though I don't know if that's good or bad...
