Growing another layer of skin

I think I need to grown another layer of skin.

I think I take stupid things too personally...results in totally needless angst. For example, I am (once again) sitting here doing NOTHING, I repeat, NOTHING, and I'm wondering to myself whether it's because they think I'm incompetent that I find myself in this predicament. Because, dammit, I'm not incompetent!

Considering this objectively though, there are several reasons why nothing is trickling my way:

1. It's coming up to Christmas/New Year when things slow down- yes, even here in Singapore.
2. They have forgotten about me, since I unobstrusively sit here at my comp in "my" office- nice and out of the way of everyone!
3. They haven't got anything to give me because I'm only going to be here for a short time.

Hmm! I feel quite justified now!

Though they still could think I'm incompetent. Hmph.

Ok ok ok ok ok ok ok, I'm going to go pester someone- I said I would go at 10, and it's an hour on and I still haven't done it...reeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaally need this extra layer of skin!!!
