Come into work, setting myself up and I go and make a cup of coffee for myself as pr ritual demands.

Someone's in there that I don't know. We say good morning and hello, then she ask says "Are you IT?"

My mood instantly changes and I respond with "No, I'm "admin"."

I turn my back and finish making my coffee in complete silence and walk out.

screams nothing like being stereotyped before 8am.

Now I'm moody.

Stuff you!

Christ, it's not only the racist assumption it's the violation of office protocol and basic social politeness as well. Triple bullshit.

Bet she's management

Yeah, it's the combo that really does it for me.

I've seen her around the place but I'm not exactly sure what she does, maybe she's in early childhood centre as I didn't see her in the staff workroom upstairs.
