"You're so nice!"

[tinhuviel]

Heather is back from vacation. She seems like an overall cool chica. She even has tattoos, so I'm greatly relieved that I'm not the only inked soul here at the Waystation.

So, a few minutes ago, I went to Brian's office and asked him if he'd take a call for Doug, whom I could not find. When I turned to go back to my desk, Heather said, "You are so nice!"

Taken aback, I said, "Me?"

"Yes! I called in a couple of times last week and you answered the phone. I asked Doug and Brian if you were just that nice and polite on the phone and they said you were like this all the time. That's so cool!"

I don't see myself as "nice." just business-minded. I was taken aback like whoa by her comments. I told her that she seemed awfully nice to me, so I didn't see how we were that different at all. She said she wasn't in too much of a habit of saying "please" and "thank you," that maybe it was just because she was from a younger generation.

So I'm an ancient, polite, nice person who is obviously easy to get along with. Have I lost my edge? Have I become a Jedi in the short period of time I was unemployed and genuinely happy? Am I only fit to make cuckoo clocks instead of prepping myself for my own personal renaissance? Ho hum.
