Truth: What am I chopped liver?
What am I chopped liver? I've always wondered where that saying came from. I'm not a fan of liver, but I know folks who like it. Anyways here's the deal I'm getting at. Whenever I'm with folks out in public, and we meet their friends or family...I'm hardly if ever introduced. This has been happening for years on end mind you! What am I chopped liver? Am I invisible? Is there a sign on me that says NOT HERE? It has happened with different people, so it's not like it is something new.
I don't know what the deal is, but more often than not...I'm just there as if I don't exist. Does it make me mad? No. I do find it weird though. I must be providing some sense of being "an old shoe" or "an old hat"; a level of comfort perhaps? Just one of the guys, or chameleon like and blends in with everything. Crazy I say.
I'm pretty quiet in public so that could be part of the problem I'm sure. Even in the workplace I've been in meeting where managers have forgotten I was there during introductions. I've had to raise my hands or interject of my existence. Certainly I've had people approach me and ask me who I am. I just usually say DINO. No last name, no title, that's it DINO. Like a Brazilian soccer star with one name. Yeah that's it. How could they miss that?
For Halloween I'm going as the invisible man. Here's a picture of me in costume:
Nice huh?
