Do you have a steel plate in your head?

Oh the conversations we have at work!
Since there are only 3 of us. Things get out of hand, especially when it is after hours of operation. We had a blitz day which means we pounded the pavement.
It was a little scary but we did it in teams and had a fun theme so it was hard for people to be mean.
Anyway we were all a little slap happy at the end of the day. Since I am still relatively new there are things my coworkers don't know about me.
I disclosed some things tonight and they dubbed me interesting and proceeded to grill me.
Not in a bad way - just maybe now they know why I tick like I do and frankly vice versa.
We had an interesting convo about Mothers.
Yikes - my Mom rules people.
And boys.
And college
And underage drinking.
Let us just say as much as I get irritated w/my coworkers I also really like them too.
After today I think I understand them so much more and that being said I think my life will be a lot easier there.
Since we pounded today though we got nothing done and we got lots to do. Good think I like them because we will all be hanging together late again tomorrow.

I had this one supervisor. He treated everyone under him the exact same, like he was the drill sargeant and we were the soldiers. Over time we got to know each other and things got better. Every once in a while though his old self would show through. I once went up to him and asked him why he talked to me a certain way. I told him he knows me better than that. He'll get better results talking to me like an adult.

LOL I'm not sure where I'm going with this, but I wanted to say that it can be so helpful knowing the people you work with and work for better.

Good luck!
My best to your family and Grandma.
