Are you a chameleon 360?
Even had a situation or a person throwing a 'fastball' at you and it just 'hits' you right into your face.. well i am sure you did and I just had one thrown right into my face by colleague, let's call this colleague - chameleon 360.
You know how it is like when you 1st join a new organisation, everyone and everything is new, you are unsure of stuff and I guess one of the survival instinct is to know people around you, and you build rapport/be friends with them.As fate permit, I gotta to know chameleon 360 and I thought hey maybe I try to build rapport which I have to say I was quite successful until last week.
Conversations with chameleon 360 were mainly emails (hey we need to bitch sometimes over email dun we?) or over lunches. for 1 wk, chameleon 360 was like your good friend however just last week, chameleon 360 did a "chameleon 360".. she started to ignore me which really puzzled me. There I was thinking, did I say or do something that offended chameleon 360 unknowingly, or maybe chameleon 360 was just in plain bad mood all thanks to ever so faithful visit from auntie beloved? So being the ever matured me (yes yes, i see eye rolling....) I did the most logical thing, I left chameleon 360 alone (everyone need their space ya?). Today I drop chameleon 360 a message telling chameleon 360 that this situation is rather awkward and that if I have done something unknowingly that offended chameleon 360, I will apologise. Let's clear the air... Doesn't this sound logical? Well, I sure did think this was the most appropriate thing to do. chameleon 360 did give a reply which I have to say it is the most bizzard message I have ever received. It goes like this : "There is nothing wrong, stop imaging things. those ridiculous emails/sms are nevertheless getting on my nerves.let be more professional". Geez what kinda of person is chameleon 360? What kinda load of crap was that!?! I went into shock which naturally turn into 'what the F***, who do you think you are treating me like this. Obviously you have not tasted 'FOF' (like how tripwire has affectionately call me to be)!' You start to question, why are there such chameleon 360 around? What is their purpose in this world? Are they here to bring balance to the people who are considered normal? If there is hell, there is heaven. If there is water, there is fire? Is that how everything co-exist together? Does such thing still exist beyond your youth where you just tell your friend:" I don't friend you already"
But touch-FOF-not, I opted for the cool approach, I simply just reply"ok great, see ya tomolo." Why look silly infront of chameleon 360 ya? Such person are not worth our time isn't it?

You did the right thing. Leave her along and walk off with dignity. She is what I would call a cock-teaser in the world of corporate friendships. Someone nice and sweet to you one week and a great change after that. I mean, it's not as if you have been sending her sms asking her about the colour of her panties, or did you ;-)
Perhaps she just wants to be friendly ENOUGH to develop a amiable working relationship. Either way, I thought she was too unprofessional to send you that email/sms. Sometimes it's not about you. Just the hangups of that person.
cheer up okie. muaks

I would ask chameleon 360 about colour of her panties but I figure it is much worthwhile asking you the colour of your panties. :Þ
