What Could She Mean?

[Sadly Mistaken]

I was talking to a co worker today and she made a comment to me that really struck me as odd.

 

She was joking around about how she wished the summer was here so she could wear less and i said 'as long as you keep your shirt on i have no problem with that'. She laughed and I said 'remember i do have to work next to you' and she said " i wouldn't be so sure of that."

 

Am i reading to much into it or could that mean my job is not safe.

 

I mean its been pretty quiet around the office lately and managment is a bit concerned about cashflow. But i don't think i've made any big mistakes that would warrent me getting retrenched, i've only been there 4 months!?

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The hidden message could be, that she is leaving....

she could be leaving

your job could not be safe

she could be joking with you

your team may be about to move office/areas/seating plans

it may have just been a whitty comeback

 

etc

 

but as a whole i'd not worry about it.

Wow i never actually thought of that, i mean she seems really happy with her job but as soon as she said that comment i think i was taken aback and just laughed it off i should have pushed her for more info like what do you mean? Oh i'm gonna regret not saying that forever now!

All you can do is wait and see. But wait, it IS summer! Unless you live in the Southern Hemisphere, then I wouldn't know what to tell you. People there use slightly different idioms so what I would call joking may be a completely serious statement, or vice versa.

Yeah i'm from Australia, its the end of winter here.

 

I have no idea what she meant i'm not getting any vibes that i'm being sacked everyone has been normal.

 

I think she may have been screwing with my head, she does have a somewhat sarcastic sense of humour.
