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

My housemate's girlfriend has been living with us three months and still has no job.

I don't know what fucks me off more, the fact that she doesn't have one yet or the fact that they are SURPRISED that a 19 year old with FUCK ALL WORK EXPERIENCE is having trouble finding a job. Or the fact that when I told my housemate "She will have trouble finding a job because she is 19 with no experience" he swore black and blue that she wouldn't.

I was right. I'm always right!

[rokken like dokken]

You should "sarcastically" suggest she look in Brisbane. 

[naut]

LOL.

I just might.

so it wasn't raining when we left for the park, started pouring on the 2 minutes drive there and throughout the entire walk and now it's stopped now that we're home again

fuck you weather

So is Van like Seattle in that it rains all the time?

Things are going crazy at work; a co-worker quit, and then my boss resigned a week later, so we're understaffed and I'm dealing with a new superior.  I've been dealing okay, but the stress of all these upheavals is causing my UC to flare up something awful, and I've been dealing with the pain and nausea, but the inflammation is preventing me from absorbing the proper nutrients out of my food, so I'm constantly light-headed and half-crazy, but I can't afford to take time off.  This is coupled with the crippling anxiety I experience as part of my normal existence.  I would get a new job, but that would only make things worse in the short-term from a stress/anxiety perspective.

I just wish I could be normal again.

Here we go again...  looks like a big lay-off here in a few weeks.  Let the paranoia begin.

I'm in that same boat. We're losing our biggest account November 1st and we'd all have to be pretty effing stupid not to think that another huge layoff isn't coming our way. As it is the managers, the general manager and the HR person have barely been seen over the last couple of days...

Ugh. Good luck r00!

Damn Luna, that sucks.

[luna]

Is it too much to fucking ask that these new owners not fuck up my paycheck?

[individualzero]

Good luck, r00/audio... layoffs are a load of crap, especially when they happen to you.

@luna: Whoa, that's some bull... I hope they address that issue. Did they not pay you the right amount or something? (Not that that's my business! I'm just curious)

[luna]

The one owner that's doing pay is a moron, last check was missing  1 hour, this one was missing 8 1/2 hours ...

She was still trying to figure out how to do it right when I left at 5

[individualzero]

Wow... has she not heard of a calculator? lol

[Aaron]

That sucks. Hope they get their shit together fast!
