Ll, I'll have to scowl at you, then, a lot, for your very sweetly forgiving Profs. Grrrrrrrr.
If only you were right, though.Unf. this is a bit more drastic. I should mention that my coworker is not US citizen. Is studying in US. Is going back to old country at the end of Sept.
Is supposedly coming back in mid Nov. (or not, depending.... on various things....)
I'd explain, except I'd start babbling again. not psychobabbling, just babbling.
Co-w A doesn't seem to have much guilt going. Co-worker C has some-- but I dont' like imposing on it. Am getting a little more unscrupulous, though. She worked with me four times in last week and a half. She';s going to Brazil for two weeks, starting tomorrow. Must have needed money--ie she was the one who really wanted to work, for a change-- I haven't yet become less scrupulous, just contemplating doing that. Lucky me. Made a lot of progress.Right before I woke up this am., I had a short dream that Co-worker B, also in process of semi-scr*wing me, had come an hour earlier than I thought, and that I was sleeping. I was awakened (in dream) by her voice on my answering machine, angrily telling me off, because I hadn't let in her, and she'd been waiting for over half an hour in the hall. ---I felt lousy, since I'd probably screwed things up permanently with her. but it wasn't really my fault... (I"m not sure why, but it seemed as if she wasn't supposed to come that early)
It's different from grad school-- wish I were Prof. and they were students. Think I'd get some R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Also they'd be hanging around for years and years, right down the hall-- captive co-workers, right where I could find them and glare at them from my position of righteous professorship.
then go to faculty meeting, very ostentiously, and as if I were about to give them a bad report. (I'm really mean, underneath any facade of niceness that I manage to mount, if I do.)
Jost.
