It's 8:44am and I'm already in a pissy mood.
I got into work a little early (holy crap!) so I figured "Hey, it's going to be a good day!". When I get to my desk I find a HUGE bag of sugar sitting in my chair. O_o I put it in the kitchen, where it belongs, and then as I'm walking back the cleaning lady says "Why'd you put that there? It was on your chair for a reason."
(conversation deleted due to extreme sarcasm and borderline bitchiness)
Long story short I'm upset. That woman is an f'ing busy body. All she ever does is stick her nose in other people's business. If I ever eat non-diet food she gives me dirty looks and says "Oh, not sticking to your diet today?" I had hoped that my dirty looks in return and comments of "I can eat whatever I want" would make her shut up. Next time she does it I want to say "I appreciate your concern over my health, but please keep your comments to yourself. If I die from obesity you're more than welcome to tell my corpse 'I told you so'." However, I doubt even that will work. Since she is, technically, my co-worker I have to treat the situation with a bit of professionalism. My boss knows about the situation, so hopefully when I go kung-fu on this lady's butt, Kim will at least post bail for me. ^_^
Edit: The sugar issue and the fat issue are separate problems. The sugar was on my desk as a 'reminder' to pay whoever bought it (even though I don't have access to petty cash).

I told her no, but also said that if I couldn't handle it then I would need her help. She knows that while I can take a good teasing, making serious comments about my size is a big no-no.

As a supervisor, I had been in a place time to time to remind my crew about those words. I almost had to suspend to recommend to fire someone because they were doing something like that and thought it was harmless.
We, the big people of the world, will no longer have to stand up to oppression by the skinny people, have to deal with the remarks of the uneducated, and we will not go quietly into the night. This is our fight, this is our battle, this is our independence day.....
Ok...so it was a rough night and I loved the speech from Independence day. :p
Hope your day gets better....I'm going job hunting in a bit.

2) Whoever bought the sugar decided to be lazy.
