Ambushed at noon; Why do birds fall in love

I had a meeting at work on Thurs which had been advertised as a strictly operational meeting dealing with nuts and bolts issues with the idea that we could go for best practice with a meeting of minds.

Then the ambush happened, the manager’s came out of no where bringing politics and management interviews. They all thought they knew better than the operational staff and made comments that led me to believe they had no great opinion of the operations staff. I stuck my neck out and got ambushed at twenty to one odds. Needless to say I spent most of Friday fuming about management who had ruined what could have been a great meeting.

Although every cloud has a silver lining. At the meeting I met a charming, intelligent woman. Obviously I was too busy verbally sparring with the evil empire to notice that I fancied her rotten. Having thought about it I now get the butterflies when thinking about her and have been daydreaming about her ever since. Why do I always fall for people at the drop of the hat? Plus why am I so useless at knowing if I should make further moves and what those might be.

So for a meeting of a few hours quite a lot happened which could have an impact on my future, I just have to take this weekend to work out what I should do.
