This just goes to show that weird crap can happen during any situation at work at any time...

I'm meandering down the hall this morning, exhausted beyond words, in search of a nice cup of tea. Our 'tech' guy is in his little library/room/lair and he says hi to me. Because I was sleepy and trying to be friendly, I stop and say 'hi' and 'hey, we're both wearing green shirts - I've seen some other people with green shirts on. Is it green shirt day or something?' Without batting an eye, he replies 'No, it's so we match later when I take you out to dinner.' I laugh and walk away to get my tea.

I walk past later and he says, 'So that's a no?'

Whoa! Talk about blind-sided...

I reply (very smoothly) 'No, we've got that happy hour thing for kickball tonight.'

I have since found out that our 'tech' formerly had an office instead of his lair, he has uber-drama (legal drama, women drama, kid drama, money drama, etc.), and he was most certainly 100% serious with the hitting on me!

I don't know whether I should be creeped out...or laughing my ass off. Right now, it's a little bit of both!

The guy has a quick wit...which might work as in intro into asking you to dinner...but as the actual invitation is pretty poor.

Him bringing it up again later is concerning...when people do that, it almost seems like they are trying to make you uncomfortable. He knew your answer.

Generally I like some determination in a guy pursuing me, but when the guy is as creepy as you make him seem, then that goes out the window.

Hopefully once he gets the picture that you're not interested, he'll back off and leave you alone. It can get kinda freaky when they don't.

Well, he fails the first critical hurdle in dating me: If you are old enough to be my dad, you're out.

Call me crazy, but having shades of your father while gettin' it on isn't hot.

Unless you're into that.

And then by all means, get down with your bad self.

I think it kinda changes the game when the person saying "Who's your daddy?" is actually old enough to be your daddy.

LOL

You left that part out of your original post. :)


What's the matter, Joe, don't I turn you on? Would it help if you went back to thinking I'm your sister? :eek:

I just got the full-body chills.

And not in that good way.

Ew.

Sorry...just trying to take your mind off of dad.

I mean creepy tech guy.


Ok, that was a low blow :razz:

In all fairness, my dad is probably older than the tech guy.

But not by much.

hmm...honestly? From a guy's perspective, I'm impressed with his approach. From what I gathered, it sounded pretty witty...

Too bad he's so old and stuff.
