In the past couple weeks, three people have said to me, "When I first met you, I though that you were a bitch. Now that I know you, you're pretty cool, and I like that you're direct." I'm kind of scratching my head on that one, as it's a mean thing followed by a nice think.
Granted, my first impression of these people was during the group project, in which I was appointed manager. It was my first time doing management ever, and I was stressing like crazy because nobody even knew how to do APA format and were all coming to me for not just help, but for me to do work for them. However, I don't know whether to be insulted for being seen as a bitch (even though I'm proud that I asserted myself for getting everyone on their asses without micromanaging), or complimented for being pretty cool despite first impressions.
