What pissed you off today?

It's way too much to go into, right now. Sometime I might feel like sharing, and I might not. Shit just seems to follow me around. I'm thinking of writing a book about it. Can someone profit from misfortune?

More often from *other people's* misfortune, but sometimes, yes, one can profit from their own. I wish you luck, both with the shit that's pattering down about you, and with profiting from it, either financially or emotionally. Or even in your garden :rolleyes:

Garden? I don't have a green thumb, if that's what you mean.

It always seems to be financial, but that can encroach in to emotional, too. Of course, if my financial problems would stop tomorrow, 99% of the emotional problems would too. I know money doesn't fix other problems, but if your problems are caused by no money, it definitely can.

I've been told by others that are familiar with my situation that I should write a book. But with my luck, the book probably wouldn't sell. :rolleyes:

Boy, you really find out who your friends are when you need a ride to the airport. I'm not helping any of you fuckers move ever again (says the girl with the beat up truck everyone uses to move shit)
 
Its been a goddamn week and he still hasn't posted on my story thread, yet has PLENTY of time to post over and over again on other threads. WTF dude?
 
I hate travelling for work, it stuffs up my schedule and now i feel like something is slipping away because I havn't been giving it the time that it deserves.

Hey! I have the same truck as you, my dear! (and the same friends & family!)
:rolleyes:

Hate that feeling. *hug* :rose:
Thank you, sweetie! We've both been sick lately, and thus talked it out over vats of chicken soup!

If I don't give myself the time I need (which I haven't done in a few YEARS, mind you), everything else falls by the wayside. Meaning you've got to take care of yourself & yours first - think oxygen mask!
;)
 
I should really learn to stop saying things in the smile/laughter thread that deal with other people. They always let me down, and then I end up looking like an idiot.

I'm so tired of being uncertain, of feeling like a fish on her hook, just waiting for her to decide whether she wants to deign to reel me in.

This fucking sucks...

Yeah, pretty much this, only permanent now. Who breaks up with a guy over email?

I feel like a colossal fool...
 
Jerks who come in 15 to closing, stay 20 minutes PAST closing, then tip like shit and have to be practically shoved out the door. AND they want a side of gravy, more napkins, blah blah blah every five minutes.

Goddamn it people. It you don't like spit in your drinks, DON'T ORDER DRINKS PAST CLOSING!!!! As a matter of fact, get your orders in at half an hour to closing.

Not that I would EVER spit in someone's drink.

Its's the thought that counts.

I can imagine that sucks. Lately it's seemed that some (or a lot of) people just have no sense of decency and respect towards other people's jobs. Here restaurants stop serving half an hour before closing, makes a lot of sense to me.
 
We took our once-every-two-or-three-months trip to Walmart (98 miles one way) today. That was okay. We got to do some yard sale-ing, stopped in at the car dealer and got her new car's first oil change, and she was all "Squee!" when the service rep told her that they *didn't* rotate her tires, because all four were wearing absolutely perfectly. Then we hit a couple of stores, which I survived despite the long walk times and 100º+ heat by going out to the car, firing it up remotely while I smoked a cigarette, and *then* getting into a cooled car to read while I waited for them (herself and a very good friend) to finish shopping.

Then we went to a nice little Chinese buffet in town because we were all three craving Chinese (*any* food, tbh at that point - it was close to 2 p.m.). Because she's only had the car for three months, and it only has 6,000 miles on it, I carefully parked in the *center* of the parking lot - the only car in that row, and a good 15 feet from the nearest other car... the one that backed straight the fuck out of its parking space as (according to the driver) the driver's brother stuck his head right in his line of sight until he bumped her car and stove in (about 2.5 - 3") the manufacturer's emblem plate portion of the grill. The really pita part of this? That little 3" x 36" (or so) portion of the grill is actually an integral portion of the *entire* grill/headlights/front of the car. I don't think that portion can be replaced without replacing the whole front section, and she's going to have to take a day off work and drive 200 miles (round-trip) to get it done. :mad:

The good thing about it: Unlike a ***lot*** of people in this state, the guy who backed into the car actually came back into the restaurant and had a server go around and ask whose car it was, and stuck around for the cops to come and file a report. Too many - 40% or so? 50, 60? - in this state would have looked around quickly, seen that no one else saw it happen, and hauled ass out of there, and she would have been stuck with the $500 deductible.
 
A total lack of common sense.

I mean really, please please please explain to me why it is that my outfit (silk blouse, black pencil skirt, black cardigan, heels) does NOT comply with the dress code because the 90% COVERED UP silk blouse contains the colors aubergine, burgundy and olive (in addition to cream, black & taupe)... but your outfit (black pants, thin black crew neck t-shirt, black Crocs sandals) DOES comply with the dress code because it doesn't contain any of the colors in my blouse.

According to management, my outfit could result in being sent home to change (because it is not exclusively black, navy, brown, cream or gray), while the other would be in compliance with the dress code and appropriately professional enough for work.

I think someone is missing the point re: professional appearance.

:rolleyes:
 
My vacation's over.
I miss my sister already, my shower's indoor here, the beach isn't a short walk away, I have no porch, my cooking sucks, and thanks to my sister's amazing cooking I gained 7 pounds. Seriously? 7 pounds in a week, awww hell!
 
My bike was stolen. :mad:

I don't drive (=don't know how) and the public transportation here isn't the greatest. Walking's my only option from now on, which means it'll take ages longer for me to get to places now.

Besides it was my dad's old bike, so it had more than tons of sentimental value. :(
 
Waiting 20 minutes to talk to someone from customer service to complain that they charged the monthly amount to my Visa after I cancelled the service over a month ago. On the good side he was astute enough to read my displeasure and agreed to reverse the charge even though they had no record of my cancellation. He did however advise me that in the future I should call to cancel versus doing it online. Clearly, since their online cancellation doesn't work.
