Are you pissed off? I'm pissed off. Vent Thread.

I woke up with a sore throat... I really hope I'm not coming down with anything... I'm gona drink enough tea with honey to make my self feel better...


I think it also means I need to keep the window closed, or at lest the window fan off at night...

Well my retarded roommate kinda got caught smoking weed last night. And if the apartment manager catches him doing it red handed, we all are gona get kicked out. Less then a fucking week of being here and he gets caught, well kinda, he lied (badly) so she knew it was him. I told him not to do it in the apartment so he won't get caught. He does it on the back porch. *sigh* I have lived here for 3 years and never had any problems. He has been here less then a week, and already has gotten caught smoking. I kinda just want to kick him out, and cut my losses now...

Do it.  Curb his ass.  If his actions are going to get you kicked out of the apartment, chuck the fucker now.  No slack, no remorse.  You don't crash with a guy and then fuck with his ability to keep a roof over his head. 

[r00]

^^^  exactly what he said.  If he can't keep his weed habit under wraps where it doesn't bother anyone else, then he needs someone to check him.

[rokken like dokken]

Agreed.

[Aaron]

I talked to other roommate about it. He doesn't want to kick him out cuz rent is cheaper (by one hundred bucks. Instead of paying two hundred we would each pay three hundred...)


I really hope he doesn't get us kicked out. If so, I'm gona be livid... Ugh... 

[TPD]

i'm pretty sure it'd be illegal to kick all 3 of you out because of one person's acrtions.
you gotta look into rental boards about something like that.

I just discovered another usually undiscussed downside of project work - usually as a junior engineer/tech, you don't stay on as long as the lead, but in this case I really like my lead and wish I could so I could see if I could get onto his next project too.  It's kind of bumming me out because I feel like we have a pretty good department on our hands and I don't really know where I'll end up.

I do so love when people project all their assorted neurosis on me, like I'm the crazy one.  And then crucify me for being a bad friend, like it really matters.  Like it's a monumental failure and my life is ruined.  I think not, you crazy bitch.

Although it sort of gets balanced out by my newly-won legitimacy in Floyd fandom...funny how that works, isn't it? 
I mean, I could write the most brilliant stuff ever, but in the end it all comes down to who you know; and that strikes me as sort of lame because I never wanted to exploit that connection, I'd rather prove it in other ways.   But whatever works, I guess.

The way I see it, it doesn't come down to who you know, it comes down to who knows that you're good.

[rokken like dokken]

That's certainly the case in my line of work as well. 

[chimera]

I appreciate you putting it in perspective, N; I'm not the best judge of the situation at this point. 

[rokken like dokken]

Sounds like there's some gaslighting dovetailed in there too, now that I think of it. 

[Aaron]

Ugh. I'm still sick, my fever is still rocking out. And working in a freezer/huge cooler all day isn't helping... I go from stupid hot and sweating to stupid cold. Over and over. It fucking sucks. Nyquil isn't helping. And while I do feel like shit, I'm not that that sick? Like my stomach is fine. I just hurt, and feel like shit. (Fever and body hurts) But I'm not puking so that is a huge plus...
