Co-workers

So I've been on this project for almost 8 weeks now and I have 2 and a bit more to go. The people I'm working with are crazy. The guy isn't that bad but when you get the guy and the girl together...it's hard. He's annoyed at her and she's just ignorant. She's very self centered and doesn't really care what others want. Tonight we went to dinner and she wanted seafood. The guy doesn't eat any seafood at all. There is limited non-seafood items on the menu, so we walk to another restaurant to check out the menu...nope she didn't want to eat there. The guy gets fed up and says that he'll go to the bar while we go to the seafood restaurant. Why can't we just all get along? Why do they have to make it so difficult? Only one more week.

It's hard to not get frustrated with the girl with her being so selfish and not knowing much. I think the reason why she wants to eat seafood so much is that she never gets to eat it normally. And now that work is paying for it, it's a treat for her. She had told me that she fed her, her kid and her husband on $200/month...and that included going out to eat on the weekends too. I can't even imagine spending just $200/month on just me for food. You can tell she doesn't eat out much and doesn't know much about food as she'd make comments like, she doesn't know the differences between different cuts of steak and how they are to be cooked. She's never had lobster served with the whole lobster before. When the waiter brought it to her table in Portland, she was shocked that it was not cut up and the shell was still on it. When we were at another restaurant, they mentioned that the shrimp was crusted with Ritz...and she didn't know what that was. The guy couldn't believe all the comments...and neither can I.

Oh well...it's entertainment at least right?
