Okay, so this is possibly the most ridiculous work introduction I’ve ever managed. In two parts, even!

BACKGROUND
*A new person started at work yesterday — after hours of orientation stuff, she came to our actual work space for about half an hour.

PART 1
*I was on my lunch break when she showed up, so as I was coming back to my desk with my hands full of washed dishes and mug of tea, my boss walked by with new!person and briefly did the whole ‘this is so-and-so’ thing.

PART 2
*Back at the desks, I was called over to get a phone cord issue fixed. And I got my first actual good look at new!person — she is SO FAMILIAR. STARTLINGLY FAMILIAR. Enough so that I said, “You look so familiar.” She gave me the MOST confused look and said, “We just met by the kitchen.”

Now, it sounds funny, right? And I thought maybe she was making a joke, which would have been hilarious. But I couldn’t tell! So I was just all, “No, I remember that, it’s not that.” And then she looked like she wasn’t sure if *I* was joking.

ANYWAY, that was the intro. Today should be interesting.
