Official GreeterFor all you RTX folk who are also partaking in SideQuest--I shall be one of the
maybefriendly faces
threateninggreeting you at the events.
That's right there's a strong possibility that not only will I check you in for RTX itself, but also SideQuest. Are you worried yet? You probably should be. ::cracks knuckles::
Some Handy Rules:
-- don't call me short, shorty, half pint, pint-sized, pixie, elf, hobbit or shrimp. If you do this will happen:

- [if at SQ] I like vodka and ginger beer, white russians, vodka straight up or strawberry anything. Feel free to buy me a drink to get on my good side. (nothing pineapple, deathly allergic).
- [if at RTX] I like twizzlers, dark chocola...

- [if at RTX] I like twizzlers, dark chocolate and mini gummi bears. Feel free to bring me any of them to get on my good side.
- Consider yourself lucky if I remember your name even if we're introduced several times. I'll remember your face first. Maybe your handle if we've interacted on this site enough. don't take it personal*
- If you think I'm flirting, I'm probably not. I couldn't intentionally flirt to save my life**
- talk about Brandon Sanderson, David Tennant, Persona or Fullmetal Alchemist at me and I'll give you my heart...tempor
arily at least.
- 90% of what I say is sarcastic, 5% is merely for my amusement and the last 5% is a mix of truth, cynicism and whining.
So there you go. A handy guide to staying on my good side. Any questions?
(*) some of the interns and temps take it personally to the point of 'what the fuck is wrong with you?' (stop crying, jesus that won't make me want to remember your name) if I forget their names or mix them up. We have anywhere from 15-30 temps rotating in and out of our division on a bi-weekly basis. And over a 100 interns for a 3 months period. Suck it up cupcake I'm not here to pander to your vanity
you're here to pander to mine(**) true story. my misguided attempts at being friendly with either sex leads to awkward conversations more often then not. If I'm comfortable with you--I'm comfortable with you. My attitude is the same across the board with those I am comfortable with whether we are snogging or not. The few occasions I have flirted usually involve animated discussions about how Babylonian and Sumerian mythology is so similar, but the vast difference in interpretation
. (true story, its how me and AB fell into a make out session--he's the first attractive, young, straight male guy I had ever met who understood where I was coming from. I was apparently the first non-academic who enjoyed researching mythology for fun).
Ps:
@datalaughing I'm pretty sure you owe me gummi bears by the by. just saying.
