Ummm did you just throw poop at me?

Let me start out by saying that in my aparment building there is this old ajuma cleaner and she is kind of crazy. I usually catch her yelling to herself and throwing trash around. When I run into her (most every morning) I avoide eye contact and pretend I don't exsist.

Now I've had my dog for almost a year. I've got him potty trained to go outside. Every morning we go out and I pick up his poop in a plastic bag and tie it shut. Then I throw it away in the bathroom garbage (not the recyling, but in the bathroom trash where, trust me, there are nastier things than my dogs poop). I have been doing this for a looooong time.

Then this morning I threw it away and I saw the ajuma cleaner go into the bathroom after I came out. I was waiting for the elevator and pretending I wasn't there (as usual when I see her). Then I saw something go whizzing by my feet. It was my dogs poop. I kept staring straight ahead and the ajuma starting yelling at me in korean. The elevator door opened and I calmly walked in with her screaming in the background.

Thankfully she never saw my face. It was a mixture of anger and shock. What kind of person throws poop at someone? On my way down I took the stairs to avoide her. What will I do? I see her almost every morning. If she wanted me to do something different she could have said something... oh maybe about 10 months ago... or asked me to get a korean on the phone to explain the problem.

I honestly hope I am never that bitter and angry so I would revert to a animal state (thinking monkey with the whole poop thing) and throw things at people without trying to find a better solution.

I told my coteacher and asked what I did wrong and they said I did nothing wrong since it was a general trash can. They said if she yells at me again that I should call them.... Oh my. Now I have to see the poop throwing ajuma every morning... great... just great....
