It sucks being the middle man for my dad's business. Since he can't speak English, I basically do all the talking for him to his clients. God, talking on the phone is such a fucking mess for me. I spoke with one of his clients today and it seems as though I was rushing through the conversation. I kept saying okay, okay, okay over and over again without even realizing it. The client probably felt I was a total asshole. Sigh.
On another note, I think I totally fubar'd relations with Alonso. Several nights ago, someone in building 3 yelled my name and I didn't know who it was. Someone poked their out and looked at me for several seconds. It was dark and I couldn't see who that person was. I suspected it was Alonso. I saw him again today and waved to him, he said without hi without making eye contact. Sigh, screwed up on that one.
I keep on lamenting about how difficult it is for me to start friendships/relationships with people, but it seems like I should worry more about maintaining them.
Note to self: Always wave to someone greeting to you even if you can't recognize them.
