Dan Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 All day I've been getting calls from a guy who apparently went out of business FIVE YEARS AGO and is just now getting around to calling. "Where are my checks going? Why are you sending them there?" Because if no one tells us a situation has changed, we have no reason to change it. "I tried to call them but the number didn't work. Here's the number! You try to call them!" Are you under the impression that I have a magic phone that will connect calls that your ordinary mortal phone cannot? "Where are you on my situation?" The situation you just told me about five minutes ago? That situation? Where am I on THAT situation? Fucktard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Am I right in being annoyed, that my brother is having an engagement party, didn't invite me, and is repeatedly writing on facebook posts such as: Got the catering done for engagement party, it's going to be great! Can't wait for engagement party this friday! Hey, everyone invited, let me know if you're coming to my engagement party! There's an option to hide posts from people for this exact reason. If he didn't want to invite me, that's fine, but repeatedly posting on facebook, is just being a dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 It is 1 right now. We are open at work tomorrow but I haven't gotten the schedule for next week yet. I need to edit Big Damn Heroes and I can break my back to do it tonight IF I know I need to. I do not yet. This is Fucking pissing me off.

SuaveStar Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 That awkward moment, when something you regret from the past, comes back to kick to you right in the ass. I think I'm going to start praying for this to be fixable, even though, it probably isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 I drove 1500 miles this week, lunking massive bits of metal everywhere and working all hours, I'm utterly exhausted. I hoped that beer and Chikara's King of Trios would improve my mood, but somehow it's only blackened it. No 1 priority- Find a job I actually want to do.

dc20willsave Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 I have a slight hangover this morning. I figure I can get some Gatorade and donuts from the mini-mart so I walk there only, once I get there, they don't open for another hour on Sundays. I settle for a bowl of cereal. Then I figure for lunch I'll order a meatball sub from my favorite place only to find out that they've been replaced by a different franchise local franchise that makes the suckiest pizza ever. Today is full of disappointments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFetch Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Kids today have no idea about the world around them. I asked one of my after school kids what they were going as for Halloween: Me: You were Wonder Woman last year right? Girl 1: Yeah Girl 2: Who's Wonder Woman? Me: You are breaking my heart here. I blame DC for this one. A whole generation has no idea who one of their biggest super heroes is because they won't make a movie. Then another girl was singing We Got the Beat, and refused to believe that it came out when I was a kid and that the girl on Disney Channel didn't write it herself. I explained to her that most of the songs today are remakes from songs when I was a kid. She thought I was joking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I keep getting calls from 1-800-123-4567 telling me that I have issues with my 'windows device' and they need to take control of said device to fix the problem. Yeah. I am not stupid. But this is getting borderline harassment, as I am getting calls up to five times a day from these people. I tell them to take me off whatever list I am on. Today, I have gotten a call at 11AM, 2PM, and 7PM. This last time I used the word 'fuck' and its variations to express my displeasure in these matters. Seriously, fuck off.

In the UK, there's something called the "Telephone preference service" where you are meant to be put on a list which companies have to keep to, and not cold call you, and if they do, you can report them, and if it happens more than once, you can file a complaint. This service is free of charge, and takes a five minute online form to complete. I'd recommend looking around for a similar service in your state for an opt in service to stop the calls.

KnightWing Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 We have that in the US, too, but that sounds like it's not a real company, so I don't know what being on the do-not-call list would do unless the authorities were to investigate those calls.

Stavros Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 You may have gathered that I'm a bit sick of driving to Scotland recently, so when my boss told me I'd be working in Northern Ireland I was pretty happy. Never been to Ireland before, and a couple of days there would be interesting. So I agree and then ask where the ferry goes from. "Stranraer". My shoot response was to shout "FOR FUCKS SAKE!"

SuaveStar Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 I don't know what annoys me more. People in my life, who seem to get enjoyment out of ripping into my life and degrading it, to make themselves feel better, or my inability to stop what they say from bothering me.

Professor Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Recently, some personel changes have happened at work. As such, the last two weeks have been a drawn out dick measuring contest. As such, I am watching the place burn to the ground. Gotta get some marshmellows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 A bell. A fucking bell?! You are a grown ass woman of at least 50 years old and yet you seem to think that wearing a bell on a chain around your neck is a good fashion choice? What are you? A fucking dairy cow?! Also, you are aware that this is a school with one open classroom that you consistently walk through clanging like a fucking village crier from the 1700s, right? Not like people with ADHD and autism need to fucking work quietly here. Nope. Not here! Die in a tire fire, fuckbag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 What, like a cat bell (idiotic) or an actual miniature bell (even more idiotic)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 An actual clang clang miniature bell. I'm at a loss for words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 HA! Similar thing here. A 60 year old woman who works in the office has a miniature bell on her string of keys. I work at the complete other end of the floor, but I can hear her every time she starts to walk my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc20willsave Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Note, this is not meant to be a political rant at all, this is an English Major rant. Okay, here goes. Learn definitions before you start using words interchangeably! Oh, you're against socialism? Then freaking look up socialism on Wiki and realize that what you're describing is Communism! I mean, Jesus Christ, is it that hard to educate yourself on something before you copy and paste your friends status message where they were just proliferating the same tired Urban Legend about some Economics Professor who teaches the class about socialism when he was actually doing a lesson in communism. I mean, seriously, what the what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Boston College students are FUCKING MORONS. I am moving very shortly into an apartment roughly a block away from the campus, which means that at least once a day I almost run over some fucknut in pajama bottoms who steps blithely into traffic while staring lovingly into their phone.

Missy Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 I too live one block from a college dorm, and I see this every single day. Worse, there's a construction site literally five feet from the dorm, and the kids walk in the way of heavy machinery all the time. It's amazing how oblivious some of them are.
