Attention must be paid

Several times the past week, I have met this woman at the elevators.

Actually, to say I met her implies that I know her or that she even acknowledged me.

I don't and she didn't. She walked straight past me like I didn't exist.

This wouldn't really bother me, but both times she said animatedly: Hi, Claren.

If you are going to say hi to a service dog, you really ought to at least nod to the person on the other end of the leash. You can even acknowledge me second, but I will not be ignored.

  1. Dude - that is not cool. Can you get Claren to growl at her? Actually, screw it - YOU growl at her. Or I will.

  3. I like the growling at her idea. I don't want to engage her because this seems like behavior I would not want in a friend.
