So I got this email saying there was free food at Pritchett and decided to go see what was there. As I was walking out of Senior House, I encountered a Mexican delivery guy with a pizza. I told him that it wasn't mine and kept on going. As I was standing there (in Pritchett) deciding which brownie to take, I felt this presence behind me. I turned around, and lo and behold there's the same Mexican delivery guy holding out his pizza towards me. Apparently he had followed me all the way to Walker. I told him I wasn't the one who had ordered it and looked out the window to make sure he'd gone before heading back.

Freaky. On so many levels.

That's why you don't talk to people like that, you just keep going.

He said hi to me. I responded politely.

Then it's not freaky, it's just a guy who doesn't speak English..?

But why did he follow me? I went out of the building to which he was supposed to deliver the food, across the street, into another building, up the stairs, and into a room, never once looking back.

If he doesn't speak English, when you said hi, maybe he thought you were saying: "thank you for delivering this pizza, I left the money inside this building, follow me and I will give it to you in exchange for that pizza"?

Some people don't like to treat delivery men like human beings, so you not looking back doesn't necessarily mean anything. Have you ever seen the way Richard E. Hughes acts around people in the service industry?

I don't think that's the problem.

No, incredibly snobbishly. But then you are an MIT student so you're better than everyone.
