There's a new lady at work

[CindersMyGirl]

Today was her first day. About an hour in she was hand flapping and muttering 'this is overwhelming, this is just overwhelming'.

Then it took her 40 minutes to add $359.50. And....we didn't balance.

And worst of all.....I don't hear so well sometimes. I walked in and she was sitting there. Surprise!! I introduce myself and she says hi. Nothing else. So I ask her name. (she's in her fifties. Doesn't it seem logical that when I said 'Hi, I'm Sonya' she would've told me her name?) She says...Alethea. So I repeat it. She says yes. I have no frickin clue if her name is Alicia and she has a lisp or if her name is really Alethea.

Maybe she won't last long?????

Is she from Spain? Maybe her name is "Alicia" but she says it with a Castillian accent.

Apart from that, it sounds like that's really going to work out.

If she is her name is the only word she says with an accent....

I dunno. I guess "Tho nithe to meet you" would have been inappropriate?

You guess, you guess, you know it would be so wrong. And yes I might have thought about it, wouldn't do it, way over the top even for me, but you can't hang me for what I think.

At that point I was just trying to figure out what she was saying. I never know if it's my ears or the other persons mouth that's making it difficult. Lol.

I have those troubles sometimes also.

I wouldn't worry about it. She probably won't be around for long.

Or she'll stay for 30 years and screw up everything.

Gah! I can only be patient so long. She'll really be flapping her hands!!!
