Email pisses me off. I hate emails. Especially when I don't know what to say. I end up staring at my screen and drooling for an hour only to have typed one sentence. Gah!

And I really wish Cunterella would stop playing games with a bitch that can play them better. Management is aware of your bullshit sweetie. And no matter how many times you throw me under the bus, I come out unscathed because the right people know about your little reindeer games. Keep hanging yourself with that rope. :)

LOL, this is so me with a certain someone...or I spent an hour writing and rewriting the same sentence.

My co-worker from Hell keeps doing this, and I'd wish she'd realize that no matter how often she complains about me it's not going to accomplish anything because I am doing my job, even if I'm not doing it fast enough for her because it doesn't fucking matter how she feels about it.  And our boss knows her complaints are largely personally-motivated anyway.

I had a chance to speak with the GM about said woman today. Long story short, she's on a shit list and her days are numbered. And apparently I wasn't the first person to go into GM's office today and complain (about something completely different) which amuses me greatly.

Somebody please tell me that my relationship is normal and I should stop worrying about it.  I just spent like an hour writing out a post, realized it was 5 paragraphs of TL;DR, and tossed it.  With my stellar relationship track record, I can't help wondering if maybe this won't work, but any time I start thinking that, I assume that this is completely normal and that it won't be better than this no matter who I'm with, so I should just suck it up because I love him.

:hmm:

That's one thing I find is true more than not around the workplace.  If someone is really intentionally rubbing me the wrong way, chances are they are doing the same goddamn thing to others including their own superiors.  My last manager is the case in point.  After he was cut loose, it came to light that the main reason he was fired was because his boss got tired of putting out fires involving him all over the company.

Here's to hoping sooner rather than later you don't have to tolerate this woman anymore.

I totally hear you...no relationship is perfect though
Oh hi

boom

Loving someone and being happy with someone are, believe it or not, two different things. If you don't feel both you probably shouldn't be with that person.

Just my opinion.

Normal is this funny little word society set up to tell us all about their preconceived ideals of right and wrong. I think that the best advice any of us can give (as cheesy as it might sound) is, "Go with what your heart tells you." When it comes to things like love and relationships, your friends and family and even the one you love can tell you what they think is best for you... but only you know. Like Luna said, there ain't a single perfect relationship in the world, and if there was, I'd be freaked out by it.

No sane couple doesn't fight/argue or disagree at least on OCCASION. But if the love in your heart is outweighed by hurt, then you're just going to harm yourself and the person you love. Review your feelings and tell yourself what you think is the best option, and then go with it, IMO.

@Audio @ Chim: People like that essentially light the fire under their ass themselves and all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the fireworks. As r00 said, hopefully sooner rather than later!

so today was a really shitty day at work. the owners of the clinic suddenly announced they were selling the practice as of midnight tonight so basically tomorrow i have 2 new bosses that i've never met before. apparently these new people said that they want to keep all the staff except the doctor that i really like working with...her last day is next wednesday :(

also word is the new woman doctor is a giant bitch :(

i really need a new career...yeah playing with animals is fun and stuff but i am just fucking done with all the other bs that seems to be required in this industry. problem is i can't think of anything else i want to do with my life. i even have the money right now to potentially go to school without any debt but i just don't want to.

boo

Ugh, I bought an $100+ wired USB headset and it turns out the plastic bridge that holds the right earcup onto the connectors snaps after a while of usage. Knowing my luck, I figured when it broke (since this was a recurring issue I discovered a while after owning the product), that it would break in an irreparable manner... and it did. Said bridge broke at a weird angle AND took some of the wiring with it. Looks like that's a hundred bucks down the drain since it's definitely not under warranty anymore.

iz, I have something I do for situations like that, especially if the item is pretty new still.  It isn't the most honest but I figure it isn't taking any money from anyone either. 

Find out if BestBuy carries those headsets.  If they do (and especially if you still have the box), bring it to them and say it was a gift from a few weeks ago.  Let them know it is broken and that you only want to exchange it for the same item.  At that point, they wont care about a receipt since it is an equal exchange and should process it.  Those big box stores only seem to care if it isn't a 1:1 exchange.  Plus, they just send your old one back to the manufacturer as a defect and get it replaced for free anyway.

That's an interesting idea. I'm gonna need to look into that. Thanks!

My bike (aka my sole mode of transportation) is making a strange sound when I bike uphill.  I have determined the following possibilities:

1. it's nothing and I should stop worrying
2. It is a relatively minor problem that will nevertheless severely inconvenience me at an extremely inopportune time
3. it is an extremely serious problem which will either
     a) force me to buy a new bike
     b) force me to put my bike into a bike shop for several days
     c) seem like a simple enough repair that I, like a dumbass, will try to do myself and end up fucking the entire bike up and thus, a) force me to buy a new bike.


I'm not particularly liking those odds.
