Ugh I had a cubicle job once, at first I was excited to have a job I could do sitting down but it didn't take long to realize how horrible it was...then again I was doing tech support too so that probably didn't help the situation :lol:
Oh hi

boom

The job itself isn't that bad, I have absolutely no contact with any customers, and the only communication I use is emailing other employees within the company. I just hate having to "yes boss, right away boss, whatever you say boss" until I get hired on.

It could be a lot worse though, I tell myself I'm lucky to have a job!

I hear ya, boom.  I have to be in that mode too right now because we just got our 6th manager in less than 5 years.  It suck because our last manager was a great fit and a good guy.  I enjoyed working with him and felt he really looked out for his team. 

This new manager seems a little hyper and I can see him making big deals out of little things.  Unfortunately it means smiling and "yes bossing" everything from him for the time being so I'm not that guy the new incoming manager sees as dead wood he wants to get rid of. 8-p

Thanks for the extra workload to the 2 people on my team that got fired today for fucking each other for months and then turning it into a fight which they decided to use company email to physically threaten each other.  GG you immature, stupid twats.

Wow...  that's special, r00.  Sorry about your idiotic ex-coworkers.  Always fun to have to clean up after people that are SUPPOSEDLY grown adults.

My phone got stolen tonight while I was on the bus. I was reading (I have the kindle app on my phone and a real deal kindle at home that I sync and read like a mofo) dude grabs it out of my hand and hauls ass out of the bus. I then see him keep running with his friends. Today is a huge puddle of shit. That is all. I have changed all my passwords to everything and taken my debit card off all the sites that my phone keeps me logged in on... (amazon and google play.) I have to wait till Sprint is open to get them to turn my phone off. HOWEVER since I pay extra for insurance I should be able to get back the same phone with out having to fork over a lot of cash... (I hope)


Also the worst thing, relizing just how much I use/depend on my phone... Alarm clock, texting, internet (on the roommate's pc now...) looking up bus times. PIFB, internet porn (I had a good chuckle about that one... My pc dies and then my phone gets stolen...) Kindle...

I also find it funny that I am not that mad about it. Like for like 5 minutes I was blood boiling rage. But then eh... Meh... Like I really don't care that much... Like a well fuck what can you do? *shruggs* I don't know if that is good or bad but it is what it is...

However it's payday so I can buy my new pc... And put more money on my bus pass. WOO That is all, for realizes yo.

That is super shitty!  I would be boiling mad too.  How old was this thief?

Here's to hoping he runs in front of a bus.

I would say he was 20 or younger. Like maybe 18ish...

So I got the old phone deactivated and a new phone heading my way... WOOO I only have to pay 160 bucks. *guh* BUT I have a new phone coming my way. Friday or Monday. REally hope it comes Friday... Using my old alarm clock in like 4 years. I also forgot to turn the volume down. Scared the shit out of my self when I woke up...

r00 it will never cease to amaze me how immature adults can be in the workplace. It's something I always thought was just part of shitty low paying jobs but it is everywhere :(

Aaron that sucks :( did you call and report it? The police obviously won't help get your phone back but if this guy does this regularly it would be good to let them know.
Oh hi

I didn't. I will when I have my phone and can call. (and won't feel bad for using roommates phone. He has a really cheap plan, cuz he doesn't use it... Ever. So he either has a pay for each minute or a set amount, really small amount...)


I think I was more shocked then anything though. 

Not gona lie, the worst part of not having my phone. Going to the bathroom isn't as much uh fun/ as good of a time killer... It fucking sucks in fact... I feel like a fucking savage...


Today I kinda got my ass chewed by my manager. For something I told him I had done yesterday... I had to put all this stuff away, some of the stuff said it could go out, if I put it a way anyway, it would show up in the computer and manager just got his ass chewed for that that morning. SO I put it all a side I told him I was done with everything, BUT the stuff that said it would go out. He then yells at me about the shit I left. Saying I should have told him blah blah blah... I can't wait till I find a new job.

My toilet connector hose has a leak. I bought a new hose. (I don't own a wrench.) I used my hand to loosen everything. And while I did get it disconected from the wall I can't get the damn part that connects to the tank loose for the life of me... And my hand hurts now from loosening that shit. HOWEVER I read how to use my bucket to flush so I don't have to use my roommates bathroom. (I have never seen a toilet dirtier then his... Even gas stations are cleaner, by a lot.)


I also have to (well I said I would, cuz I got asked) go in at 8am. Which means I have to be up stupid fucking early... BUT I get off really early Like the sun will still be out when I get off the bus at home... SO kinda a good and band thing...
