Mr. Giddinelli rubs me the wrong way. I walked into the office today with Kevin to get Senior Recommendation Forms. But Once Kevin saw him near the shelf where the forms were, Kevi immediately leaped for the door and asked me to get him some forms. Mr Giddinelli is sorta mean to Kevin, in that adult "I'm-not-technically-being-mean,-but-I-suck-as-a-counselor-and-I-sorta-am" kind of way. So I already didn't like the guy too much. And as I headed toward the shelf with the forms, I reached in and grabbed 2 for myself and 2 for Kevin, unaware that I had actually grabbed all the forms and now there were no more left. Then cute Melissa Wu walks in looking for the forms (and I still don't realize that I had taken the last one)and sees that there aren't any left. Well, Since Mr. Giddinelli is RIght THERE Next to me, he stops me in my tracks and asks me Why I'm running off with all the forms. I tell him it's cuz I need "2 for myself and 2 for my friend". So he goes ahead and takes the forms from my hand and gives me 1. then he gives Melissa 1. And he tells me to just photocopy. Then after some more thinking he decides to give me 1 more, "for your friend". The friend who he's been a crappy counselor to.
Well I look and see and figure out that I had actually taken the last 4 forms in the shelf-box and I apologize to Melissa before heading out. Then as I walk away I hear Mr. Giddinelli say half-jokingly, "Don't be such a pig." And for the first time ladies and gentlemen, I gave attitude to an adult other than my mother or father. I walked out, with my back turned to him, saying in the most sarcastic and attitudinal tone possible: "Thanks for calling me a Pig." I heard him say he was just teasing, but I kept on awalking. Man, was I juiced.
I like to think I'm very nice around grown-ups. This time I was not-so-nice. and Frankly, I don't feel bad about it at all. I do feel sorry because I think Melissa misunderstood my behavior---it was never directed at or caused by her. But there's something to be said for dishing it right back to em. And that was my mini-revenge for him being such a poop to Kevi. I like it. Maybe a little too much. Ordinarily I'd feel bad about it, but I really don't.
