That is Nice to Know

One of my coworkers told me the nicest thing today.  He was on a job site, and I generally handle his schedule (assessments, bids, jobs, etc.) plus do the ordering for him and the various projects he has set up.  He called today to check in and give me an update and while he was on the phone, he told me that he just relaxes when I'm in the office.  He said he feels like everything will be OK if I am the one answering the phone.

That's nice. I am not sure what it really means, but I 'm taking it as a compliment. 

Our two cubes sit next to each other and usually when he is talking schmack in the office it is under his breath just loud enough to entertain me.  And that I enjoy immensely.

For whatever reason, I do enjoy working with men, and the ladies I work with as not a problem--but there is always an added layer of drama with women.  It doesn't matter what kind of work I have done in my life--women just bring the drama levels up.

So at my office now, I primarily work with men, but there are a couple of ladies that are there too.  We all get along well enough.  But the gus are easier to deal with.

Plus, when they say nice things, I can appreciate that even more.
