Apparently I suck

and I'm also negative in regards to my job. Well at least with one of the parents at the gym. I don't think she realizes how much our personalities are alike which is probably why she's judged me based on a snapshot view out of a day.

All this boils down to two comments I made taken out of context, especially the one where I continued in talking with her son about how I'm not ticklish. I have regularly told this parent how much her kid cracks me up and he rocks. Those comments have rendered nary a blip on her radar. Nope, instead I'm negative and suck.

I can't wait until the next time she comes into the gym with her kid only because I am aware of her comments about me. She'd mentioned to my supervisor I could come out and talk to her about all of this. Not going to happen since the chances of my being at the gym at the same time as her means I'm working. I won't have a discussion with a parent about her perception of me. My job is temporary and part-time. I'm not interested in getting one parent's ideas changed since she's thrown down a line in which I have become damned no matter my interaction with her or her kids.
