Thanksgiving day.

I had to work the evening shift on Thanksgiving. I was lucky enough that my mother in law had gotten dinner ready before I left for work. I didn’t have much appetite, but I ate some, and brought a bunch more with me to work.

It was really slow. I think I had 4 arrivals on the board, with two done before I got there.

So I’m sitting in my chair, scrolling, and people are walking back and forth to the restaurant. We’re separate entities, but they pass the desk to get back there (by choice, there are two entrances.) So I’m sitting on my phone, and when people walk by, I look up, and if they make eye contact I smile.

NOBODY would look at me. There were maybe 3 people that made eye contact in 8 hours, and not one of them smiled back! I couldn’t believe it! On Thanksgiving, of all days!

I started thinking maybe there was something wrong with me, something on my face or something. But when I checked there was nothing.

It was the damndest thing. Have any of you had days like this?

Sorry if the format is off, I’m on mobile.
