So I think the things that bother me the most about this pairing is:
1) It's day 4 and no one has acknowledged that my name is Kate and not Katherine despite my repeatedly saying so.
2) We've been working out of Montreal for two days and two of the people refuse to even try to speak any French. "Meli Melo" instead of "bits and bites" isn't that friggin' hard to do, and people appreciate the effort even if it's done with a crazy thick english accent. I had three people get angry at us yesterday because they were asking a french question and this fellow I'm working with just spoke slowly and loudly to the person in English about something they didn't even ask about.
3) It's been a lot of short overnights, so none of us have had time to get to know each other.
4) The floater angrily confronted me over something she did wrong that I had told her not to worry about. Overreacting is cool. Get over it.
I basically can't wait to get home later today.
