Theres nothing quite like a Debbie Downer to ruin a perfectly good day.
Something along the lines of a classic optimist vs. perpetual pessimist dynamic.
One day, Debbie started whining about parking.
Apparently, the poor woman couldnt seem to find a decent spot for her SUV.
Without thinking, Mia told her about her prime parking spot.
Why, you ask?
Well, because the very next day, guess what?
Debbies car was parked in Mias spot, all cozy like it had been there for days.
If office parking spot laws existed, shed be up for grand theft parking.
But oh, it doesnt stop there.
No, no, no.
Mias walking buddy took things to a whole new level of cringe.
Blacks areracist, she said.
Say what, now?
Yeah, you read that right.
Lets just pause for a moment to let the audacity of that statement sink in.
Now, your jaw is probably on the floor, right?
She even stopped saying hi to Debbie in the mornings, and those solo walks she used to enjoy?
She reclaimed them, and the peace and quiet was refreshing.
Talk about sweet, delicious karma!
But, shocker, it hasnt been going so well for her.
Gee, wonder why?
Maybe because most of the office is pretty diverse, and people arent really vibing with her internalized racism.
Despite Debbies not-so-lovely personality, Mia almost feels bad for her.
We wanted to know if the poster confronted her coworker about her actions.
Plus, she prefers to stay away from her as much as possible.
Its best I keep my distance because I can be a hot head.
We asked the poster if her coworker ever tried to apologize or make amends for her actions.
So, whats the lesson here?
Maybe its that some people are just impossible to help, no matter how much you try.
Or perhaps its a reminder that protecting your peaceand your parking spotis always a top priority.
