Thank you, BuggsBunny. Yes, the orientation did get me down. I had to smile at what you said above. Often, people who have seemed very difficult to deal with on jobs, when I didn't know them well, ended up being not so bad at all. This person struck me as kind of a lonely soul, herself. We might end up working together just fine, if I can make myself just give it a chance. She's kind of obsessive, and possibly has a hard time relating to people. It's sad when someone seems to build up self-esteem by knocking others. We all have our faults. If being a bit crusty on the surface is the worst of hers, I've dealt with that before and gotten past the initial discomfort. She does seem genuinely conscientious, as am I. We might end up liking each other. I've had that happen in the past, when it seemed the most unlikeliest of outcomes.
Well, look at that. I just about talked myself into a better frame of mind.
Thank you for asking how it went . . . and helping me to lighten up.
Hugs to Buggs!
