try being told that you basically look like crap. i've been dwelling on this comment from a co-worker for about 12 hours now, and i'm having a really hard time letting it go and moving on. situ: she and i were chatting, and i asked if she had any ideas for good hairstyles that might be a good fit for my face shape. her response: "why even bother with getting a style if you're just going to pull it back anyway?" granted, i wear my hair up a LOT, but mostly because it's thick and i don't have the patience to make it manageable. hence the reason i was soliciting ideas for a new hairstyle. she proceeded to make other comments that really just made me feel like she was telling me that i didn't do anything to make myself look good and that i look like crap. she's also made a lot of comments about my clothes being too big and baggy and how i should go buy new clothes.
i know. i've lost 60 fucking pounds. my clothes don't fit right any more. and if i weren't living paycheck to paycheck, maybe i'd have some money to go buy new clothes.
i'm so hurt and angry. and i don't know how to respond to her. except that i really just want to scream at the top of my lungs "FUCK YOU BITCH! I'VE LOST 60 FUCKING POUNDS, I LOOK A MILLION TIMES BETTER THAN 6 MONTHS AGO, AND YOU KNOW WHAT? AT LEAST MY WARDROBE DOESN'T HAVE SHOULDER PADS AND LOOK LIKE IT HASN'T BEEN REPLACED SINCE 1988."
but that's not very professional or friendly, now is it?
