    Re: THE RANT THREAD!

    I have to be super busy all weekend with this Pride festival, but I just started my cycle and want to crawl back into bed. :/


    Mostly art.

      Re: THE RANT THREAD!

      Some jerk driving a heating and cooling company truck ran a stop sign and cut me off. There wasn't an accident, but it really ticks me off that jerk thought he had the right to run a stop sign. Also, when I honked at him, he had the nerve to honk back. I'm really tempted to call the number that was on the truck and tell them they need to teach their idiot employees how to drive and behavior like that doesn't cause their business to look very good.

        I'm so tired of stagnating. It just seems like week after week, it's the same thing - and we have all of these plans that just never get set into motion. It's honestly just bloody depressing. Get excited looking for house and land packages, and then get put on hold because we can't seem to understand what we're looking at - can't get time to go and speak to the builders because our days off are never together. Can't get started on a family because we don't have our own house. Can't go to uni because I don't have my ACT scores or a TAFE degree and can't afford it until we're settled/after we have a family. Can't get settled because we don't have a house. GRRRRRRRRRR just sick of it.

            This really isn't a rant. It's more of just something that bugs me.

            It annoys me, when I'm at work as a cashier and I'm waiting for a customer, a customer will come up ready to checkout and goes, "You look like you need something to do." I want to say, "I am doing something. My job." It bugs me when a customer makes it sound like I'm just slacking off because I'm standing at the front of my register. I have to stand at the front of my register when not helping customers. So I'm already doing something. I'm waiting for a customer to help.

                I wish people would stop telling people its ok to be fat. Yeah I get some people have issues with their weight (me included) and I agree that models etc should be realistic and not a size 0, but stop telling girls that its ok to be overweight!

                  Benevolent managers ftw

                  I don't think anyone has ever dared try idiocy like that on me though. Last bit of stupidity I had from a customer was a pricing issue and well, the perk of being low on the totem pole and having decent supervisors

                  Customer: <insert idiocy of the week here>

                  Me: Let me call a manager, maybe they can help you

                  *clicks walkie*

                  I need a manager at _______

                    Re: THE RANT THREAD!

                    You know. I don't understand why my parents think it's OKAY to snoop through my window, just to see exactly what I'm doing on the internet. In fact, it's probably the most childish thing I've ever heard of. And then, to call me out to the living room to question me on it, acting like you know some big and bad secret? Yeah, I don't know what crack you've been on, but I AM an adult, and I DO have the right to privacy. Getting me to log into my skype, will be a NO, and getting to see my internet history will also be a NO, because guess what? I don't save my internet history! If you want to take away the internet privileges, then go for it. I can buy my own damn internet, thanks. Want me to pay rent? Fat chance, because you'll make me pay some ridiculous amount that's equivalent to owning a condo, just to prove some point that the world is hard. You don't even understand the word "no" when it comes to money. The last thing I need is to be bled dry by you guys. Wait, that already happened, ya know, with the last job? Cause having an 18 year old support your family is cool guyz. like, totally. /sarcasm

                    By the way, bringing up your daughter's sexual choice when she's triggered, is probably the biggest low and most manipulative thing I've ever seen you do, mother. Because somehow, getting me to exclaim in exasperation that I'll give guys a try is just enough to stroke your ego that you know me better then I know myself.

                    I'm my own best advocate, thanks for your opinion but it ain't needed.

                    Can't effing wait till I have enough saved to move out...

                      Er, how tech savvy are your parents? If they know enough then there are ways to monitor your net use without direct access to an internet history. They can be defeated but they exist, don't cost much (if any) money and aren't insanely difficult to pull off.

                            Health products are so expensive! Ive been taking a collection of supplements for the last month that make me feel great and my body work amazingly! But I'm trying to order the next months supply and its 270$... now I earn enough in a month for this to be ok, but I dont have it now and its hard to justify. Theres also other stuff im after, but health stuff is just so expensive!!!

                            The company has a thing where if I reccomend 3+ people who buy products I get stuff for free, but noones buying stuff!!!

                            I want it to be cheaper
