Rude incident foist upon me today
I was working at my desk and a customer/client was standing outside my office and wanted who-knows-what? As soon as I lay down my pen I will ALWAYS come and do what I can to help. But no, as soon as we made eye contact she crooked her little finger and waggled it to beckon me. My brain immediately flashed "YOU INSOLENT LITTLE TROLLOP, DON'T YOU DARE WAGGLE YOUR FINGER AT ME!" How incredibly rude. I wanted to sit tight so badly.

I mean, that hasn't happened to me in decades, which is testament to me that it is actually rude. Isn't it? Based on my visceral reaction it was rude. Just don't know if I've missed a memo or something.

I guess it could go without saying I was polite without being particularly warm. I suppose she didn't know any better.
