Work was frustrating today but there were some good moments. I’m trying to figure out if I’m allowed to win against the soldiers. Don’t get me wrong, most of them are cool but sometimes they act like dic*s. It bugs me that they act like they have to win no matter what. I don’t buy it.
I have to learn my limits, how far I can go. I was vacuuming and mopping the gym today and one guy was just bugging me, he wouldn’t let up. Trying to intimidate me, just being irritating and slamming weights down loudly, one of their favorite tactics.
There was one other soldier in there, working out and when the guy bugging me was acting like an as* I looked at him and I’m not entirely sure what happened, I think he thought he was being a man by acting tough but he was just embarrassing himself and I turned away to ignore his petty ass and the other soldier was watching and grinned and gave me a thumbs up. It was very satisfying. It felt good to have someone on my side.
But I talked to my co-workers today, and I talked to my boss and I cleaned the lobby and had some space and peace and quiet and got to work alone all day. People left me alone for the most part except for the guy in the gym.
