Co Worker Vent

There is a woman who sits outside my office in a cubicle. She doesn't work for me or with me or even in my dept. The seating arrangements here are just a bit funky for the time being.

I am at the point where I can no longer take her. I dont' want to have to keep my door shut all day long, but it's getting to that point.

She is constantly talking to me about random stuff- she is just one of those people who says WHATEVER comes to her mind. But rather than just making a comment like "Gee I'm so tired today"- outloud to nobody in particular -she addresses it to me. Like this:
"Oh Jenna I am SO tired today. Do you feel tired today? Do you ever have those days where you just want to go home and take a nap? Is it the weather? Or maybe my allerigies?"
So now I have to answer her back. I am busy typing away, with a look of concentration on my face, and she has to just talk to me about random nonsense all day long.

Just now she needed to know what time it was in Austraila so she yells out- "Hey what time is it in Austrailia?" I ignore her. She repeats it.
I say- "I dont' know". Really quick and distracted like.
She continues to go on- "well let me look it up"- then proceeds to announce that is now 6 am there! Really? Fascinating. But I DON"T GIVE A FLYING FLUCK!

I can't concentrate with these constant interuptions!

I have become good at tuning her out, but it's like she demands a response.

I guess I am going to have to keep my door shut at all times to discourage her from having an open invite to speak to me at random!

Honestly- show some respect!


Stuff like this drives me NUTS!
