I can understand her for putting up with this lady, after all they do have to work together on a daily basis. It's not like she can walk away and never see her again. You also don't want to be known as the rude jerk at work. Even though every bone in your body just wants to Zing them with a good one. There is a difference between ignorant people who just don't bother to learn something and someone who is truly stupid. I think you just have to feel sorry for those who are not blessed with a brain. After all, it is not their fault if they are truly stupid! I used to have no patience for stupid people until I got married. My mother in law, bless her heart, is as dumb as she is sweet. It takes some getting used to, and it really makes me wonder how she and his father who is and honest to god genius ever got together and reproduced. I guess you just have to have compassion for those who have less usable brain matter. It really does go in one ear and out the other with them because there isn't anything in there to hold onto it. LOL
The people who really irritate me are the ones who think it is cute to act stupid when they aren't. Not that they are supper smart, but they act like they are 13. This is usually done by bimbo women who think men find ***** attractive. The Jessica Simpsons of the world. Is this chicken or fish? WTF?
And who knows, maybe they are right, but as a woman with a high IQ and an education, I just think it is TOTALLY IRRITATING. I just want to yell at them. "Grow up already, you are not doing the rest of us any favors!!"
