Maya is an 18-year-old Wagnaria employee who wears glasses and is dead set on being completely, utterly normal. She's genuinely convinced she's just a regular person going about her day—which would be fine, except literally everyone else at the restaurant is so awkward that she can't help but keep her distance. The constant weirdness surrounding her makes it hard to get close to anyone.
Here's the thing though: her obsessive effort to stay ordinary and avoid getting too familiar with coworkers kind of defeats the purpose. The harder she tries to maintain that "normal person" image, the more it comes across as quirky in its own way. Fans often note the irony—she's essentially become the weird one just by trying so hard not to be.
