The spite, hate, rage, apathy and mild irritation thread...

[gunslinger_burrito]

Customer service of course sucks, but... WTF?

I always start out nice, and say hi.

If you ignore me, like this guy today, I'll just say hi again.

If you persist, like this guy did, in ignoring me I'll crane my neck and lean right into your field of vision inches from your face, and just stare until I'm acknowledged.

Aha, that got his attention, startled, he manages a hasty "Hello, uh..."

I nod my approval, lean back and continue, with "How are you today?"

HE says "No complaints, not that anybody ever listens when I do."

WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF FUCK YOU.

FUCK the holiday season working retail. I work a grocery store...and FUCK this.

We get bitched at enough about not greeting people....etc....and it's so frustrating when I'm even having a good day, being polite, etc...and people are just the worst. I just want to say to them, "Look! I don't want to have this interaction either, but it's my JOB. At least fake it, ok, asshole?"

So draining.... the amount of times I've almost walked out or called in "sick" for no reason has increased dramatically lately. This shit steals my time and energy, when I could be spending it making something I'm good at. The worst, worst, worst.

Good god I am hungover today.

[gunslinger_burrito]

I think I narrowly avoided being that tomorrow.

Dear booze, you make me love/hate everything. Sigh.

somebody on another forum reacted to my mention of missing the Eno multimedia thing that was webcast earlier today by asking, in all seriousness, "who the fuck is Brian Eno?"

[snipelfritz]

to that.

So they say that being yourself and being honest is a great way to meet women, but tonight, I just couldn't bring myself to say, "Hi, I'm Mike, and I want to hump your leg raw."

[dubkitty]

it'd probably have worked better than my version would have done, given that i'd have had to say "hi...i'm Bob, and i'm broke, unemployed, depressed, and desperately need someone to be close to. got any weed?"

[snipelfritz]

replace "unemployed" (but retain broke) with "lives with his parents" and you've still got me.

And still wanted to just hump the shit out of her black legginged leg.

EDIT: Isn't it great when a woman makes you feel equal to a dog? But no, it's not that bad, it's not like I actually know her and she treats me like shit. According to a coworker she's quite nice, I just didn't have a chance to talk to her.

[dubkitty]

it'd be several steps up for me for a woman to treat me like a dog.

[snipelfritz]

Right? Acknowledging my existence would be nice, but I'm not going to get my hopes up.

Damn, this shit reminds me of my ex who really liked to think of me as a kitty cat.

Like really liked it. As in, if we were still together, I'd be wearing ears and a tail while we had sex...

...at least I'd still be having sex...

I've got a similar thing goin' on. I'm working my ass off on getting my grad school applications done by tomorrow afternoon. Nearly every night this week I've been working on my applications from when I get done with class till when I go to bed. My days lately are literally: go to class, come home, turn on my computer, work through checklist for every application, turn off computer, go to sleep It'll be worth it when I get accepted, though.

And I've shifted back into my Man Who Fell to Earth persona over the last few weeks...

A long time ago, Eno released a VHS tape called Thursday Afternoon where you had to turn you're TV on it's side to view it. It totally fucked up my television. So, if I ever meet him, I'm gonna kick him in the nuts.

You know you could've just laid on your side.
