I’m writing this post because I've recently been feeling rather ignored. It sounds like your typical sob, sob, feel sorry for me story, but it isn't, and that’s not really the intention of this piece. It’s basically just a rant!
Someone who I work very closely with doesn't seem to really want to talk to me or acknowledge my questions, comments, general presence…even when the things I say are relatively important; things that will help me and us to do a better job. I have found myself repeatedly saying the person’s name after I have asked my question or made my comment, only to realise they have actually heard me, they just don’t feel it important to reply or even acknowledge I've said it with a look. It’s also very difficult when you’re on your own 80% of the time and can’t really talk to anyone about it, so have to vent on your blog instead!
I understand that people are busy and have many things to do in a day, but I suspect this person does very little and basically moans about how hard life is around 90% of the time, when in reality, I believe they have a lot to be grateful for. But that’s besides the point. I know if someone asked me something, no matter how ‘busy’ I was, I would take the time out to respond or at least acknowledge the question or comment. I would not simply sit there and ignore something that was said, important or not. I also understand that people are different, but possibly not to this extent...
Anyway, that’s my two pence’s worth for the day. Have a lovely one, whatever you’re getting up to!
