She looked at me with raw hatred, but never brought up her heritage again.
So, what city in Italy were you born in ?
HAHAHAHA! wow.. that TOTALLY sounds like a Chicago Italian. I too am one. It's just how we are. we do stuff like that! I dont interupt random stories. I'll only bust it out when it's applicable. and you can't tell me that doesn't sound like a cocky a-hole chicago italin thing to say right?? hehe
yeah, We are very proud of our heritage. My family though are from Naples. They are hella ethnic but I was born in Chitown.
I'm all for being proud of your heritage, I just really dis liked that woman, and the fact that she was my boss made it worse, and add to that her nails on a chalkboard voice, made for a bad work experience.
