(no this is not my elevator.. stolen from internet)This morning, I was happy to begin a new day...and a FRIDAY at that...and holding my pepsi as I boarded the elevator to head up to my floor. I heard quick clack clack of heels so I held the doors for two women. They boarded and this is the annoying thing that ensued:
Lady 1: *looks at me* "See, here's an example right in front of us." (in annoyed voice)
Lady 2: "She's going to think we're talking about her now."
Lady 1: "Well, we are."
Lady 2 to me: "Sorry.. I work in X building and just said to my friend I didn't realize so many young people worked in this building. It'd intimidate me...haha.." (trying to make it less awkward and not succeeding)
Me: "Hmm..." *annoyed and expressionless*
*awkward silence for 2 more floors*
Doors open, and I exit with a b*tchy look on my face I totally let them see that read "grow.up." as I laughed and shook my head. Hope that made them feel dumb. Hmph!
What I wanted to say was something more like:
"oh yeah that makes perfect sense...we ran all the old people out of the building and stuck them in the X building because they smelled like, well, old people. How did you two get out?”
But, I refrained. And I didn't let them ruin my Friday. Hmph.
At least they called me young.. *shrugs*

ugh some people! hahaha I love what you wanted to say!!!
awwww haha I am with you, at least they called you young!
She didn't mean young....she meant hot and young. Nobody cares how young people are if they are ugly and do their job! :) haha I love your hot semi-old ass.
OMG! I can't believe someone would say that!! Seriously! I am proud of you for not saying anything...even though it would have been AWESOME if you had said that to them! haha
Hahah! Wow! I think they must have felt a little jealous!
boo to them! Clearly, they felt threatened :) Little do they know your a sweet, thoughtful girlie, who they would be lucky to even know! yay for you not letting it get you down---have a GREAT weekend!!
It seems they are feeling intimidated by all of the younger people coming in. I prolly would have said something bitchy back. Just sayin'
People can be so rude sometimes! Wonder what they would've done if you'd said what you really wanted to! :)
Wow, that's pretty asshole-ish of them. They are just jealous because you are young and beautiful and funny and they aren't.
Some people just never grow up!! I definitely wish you said what you wanted to..that would've taught em!
B*tches!!! I can't believe they brought you in the conversation like that. They are just insecure and jealous of younger, better-looking, and smart people in the workforce. Threatened much? SO rude, but you're obviously the bigger person. You got your job based on your credentials and qualifications, not your age or sex appeal. Be proud!!
haha!!! lol... i find that hysterically funny. especially your non-spoken response! ;-)
Uh! Isn't funny how we hold our tongue but then wish we hadn't? They're just jealous...
I remember when I was hired and went from being a temp to being permanent. One (morbidly obese) woman was apparently offended and said, "Oh that's all we need, another skinny bitch in here." For the record, I am a size 10. NOT SKINNY. And how would it go over if it were reversed and I said, "Oh that's all we need, another fat bitch?" Dare I say, it wouldn't be weel recieved. People piss me off. I'm glad you gave them a look.
I would have gave them the look too!
That is so funny and weird! Glad you were able to handle it ok. I probably would have giggled nervously.
Just found your adorable blog! How rude were those two woman??
Whoa! What they heck was wrong with them?! Obviously they just wish they were young and cute like you are!
Hope you are having a great weekend!!
