anything to vent?

Postby siren13 » Wed Jan 19, 2011 6:34 am

Does anybody have anything to vent about? I say let it out! I only say this because I have been increasingly annoyed by my co-workers micromanaging my duties as well as others....ughhhhhhhhh! I think if aliens do exist surely they didnt invent office environments....oh meditation is not working lately...i have the crazy hair to prove it. and my conflict management skills are just about to fall apart!

Yeah, I guess I'm becoming more and more annoyed by certain classmates.. they're acting like it's play time in class.. Instructors constantly having to ask them to stop playing around or talking. I'm like "What is this, High school?"

Minor things. :lol:

Thats why 90% of the time i avoid the tv news always makes me mad. I work in a gov. office and we get daily emails about national issues and by 430 when I clock out i just want dumb stuff - something to lighten all that heavy weight. I worked in unemployment for 9 years and 7 months...i transferred six months ago...so glad I did. and to add to my ranting.....why is it people always assume the worst when a new politician takes office...give them the benefit of the doubt! all the people i work with swear the new gov is gona get rid of them...maybe if theyd stop playing on their damn phones all day!! =D THAT FELT GOOD!

Why is it that the portions of food get smaller, yet the price increases? I will give some examples:

1. Ordering a meatball sandwich at this one place. I am used to getting three huge meatballs on a sandwich that will also be lunch for tomorrow. Instead, I got this tiny sandwich with three of the smallest meatballs I ever saw. The price was the same, though.

2. A bag of chips costs $3.99 now, and it used to cost $2.99. The volume went from over 14 oz (remember over 16oz?) down to 11 oz. Again, paying more for less, so I have to shell out much more now.

I know, it is silly. But I am not a millionaire.

Amen to that Max. I'm so sick of the MTA (metro transit authority) here in NYC. Every month there is a news article about how ridership is through the roof and they are breaking transportation records with millions upon millions of riders each day commuting to manhattan. Yet every year they cry poor and raise the rates. A few years ago it was 1.75$, now it's 2.25$ but there are more people riding than ever...where is the money going!!!

Oh wow, I just found this thread... :lol:

What drives me crazy every single day are the drivers blocking the left lane (which is supposed to be the FAST lane! Get it?) driving 35 miles in a 50 mph zone and you cannot pass them because the right lane is also taken by another driver too scared to drive the speed limit.

I am not an aggressive driver. As a matter of fact I'm an excellent driver (my all-time favorite Rainman quote, haha!). But these stupids are making my blood boil Image

Tonight I am going to rant about..... :lol:

I originally posted on here a rant about this new health care crap, but decided it wasn't just that, its the government all together from what they have done in the past, what they are doing now, and what they might do in the future. In a way I hope something does happen in 2012, preferably something extremely good, like a better, good intentioned person becomes president, something that has to do with getting rid of the nimwits in control, or someone or something comes and saves us from the nimwits :roll:

I am kinda loving I started this thread. We all need to just let it out ya know? Like group (forum) therapy.

Something else that gets on my nerves is grown adults that don't know how to take care of themselves. They rely on others to do for them what they do not do for themselves. I am not talking about someone not understanding but they take initative and ask. You know like how people dont vote, or dont express themselves and rely on a government to take care of them when they should be trying harder. Sleeping while they are awake. They dont try to get jobs (even before our economy) but let a government support them. They are the same people that freak out when their wealthy parents die and suddenly the real world swallows them. Maybe its from working in govt long enough to see who isnt trying to help themselves. I get annoyed by our government taking my hard earned wages and paying for others to swindle away on non-sense. Don't get me wrong, i believe some people need help and we should help. But when you are paying women more money for popping out more children something is wrong here. and when the families that work hard to earn a living suffer for making an honest living. There has to be a way to make people stop sleeping ay the wheel. What is wrong with people? why not want to know how to be independent??? ughh just drives me bonkers especially when i work two jobs just to pay my darn rent!

How disgusting is that man?! Here's a divorced mother of 3 kids having to work 3 jobs and he has the audacity to say that to her! :x

Upper management not caring what their employees are complaining about. In turn, they claim to be one of the best companies in their industry, but cannot retain employees for more than a few years. These employees even go as far as breaking contracts and owing money to the company so they can leave. Yet somehow, this is all the employees fault that they quit after such a short time. Such a "quality" company should have a waiting line of people that want to work for them.

When the majority of your workers complain about the same items, one would think that you would either try to make a change or EXPLAIN why things are the way they are if they cannot be changed, and not just tell the employees that if they don't like it, quit. Granted, there are some cases where that statement would be valid.

GRRRRRRR!!!! I've been battling with this for years and trying to find a way to effect a change in a positive way. It's sad when you've worked somewhere for only 5 years and you are considered an ''old timer'' because the average employment span does not last more than two years. I could go on forever about the details, but this is the overall rant :)

I think what is also annoying is people that speed on bad roads.. even if you have a great big truck ..what if someone slides in front of you .. and you hit them because while the rest of the highway is going 35 you are still exceeding over 70 mph... c'mon man! I drive a focus!

Annoying

Postby Bob137 » Tue Feb 08, 2011 11:27 am

You know what really pisses me off! I found out that thee banks we bailed out, buy the oil from the oil companies, then they sit on it, until the prices go up, then they sale it for a higher profit. They were doing this all along, prior to the economic downfall, and were making profit, during the downfall, but that money was not part of the banks profit margin from us, so that was not considered on their going broke, (which since they had billions of profit from oil, and millions of oil they were holding onto, waiting to be sold at a higher price), they were not really going bankrupt, just bankrupt int heir dealings with us! They had all the money they needed, to support theirselves, but by only showing one side of their profit loss, they got the government to help them out with out taxpayer money! So they got a bunch of money from us so they didn't have to move money from one place to another to do business, not because they were going broke! In other words, we were all misinformed, so as it to look as though because of real estate foreclosures, they were at a loss, when they were actually in the green, and got huge bonuses for it!
Meesa thinks youse a using Jedi mind tricks! Jar Jar Binks! :twisted:



Edit:

Another thing that get's my goat: Is when people try to tell me about Jesus, or other so called savior's or Jesus is God, or any other religious BS! Come on, get a life people! Get off the crapper reading your bible, and local newspaper, and listening to Fox, and all the brainwashing, and go to the local library, and start reading some books on other subjects! My God, what is it going to take for people to really, "see the light"! It ain't coming from your Church, or synagogue, or mosque, it is from the sky people! Yet even the Sky People knew there is a cosmic conscious GOD, not a material entity, that flies down in space ships, and rockets, and artificially inseminates a woman, and has a hybrid baby, that probably glows in the dark!

Hell even as a child, I knew something was amiss with that!



Edit2:

Something really annoying to me, was when my wife used to fart under the bed sheets, and I didn't hear it, but it smelled real bad all of a sudden!


Please Edit your posts instead of double and triple posting.

Thanks

You know what really bothers me? My cat has a habit of sitting on my keyboard and chase her tail. She is typing all of this gibberish when I want to type something. I know it is her way of saying pet me and play with me, but give me a break sometimes.

Catz!

lol I hear ya Max!

My cat Sis was sitting on the toliet today, while I was doing my hair, and from where I was standing it was about three or four feet from where she was. Anyways, I'm standing there trying to do last minute touch ups before I had to leave, and the next thing I know I have a dang cat on my arm! Yeah, she jumped from the toliet onto my arm! Thank god I had put my coat on, otherwise there would have been one kitty who wouldve ended up with a new home! As I stood there in shock, she started purring and rubbing her face across my arm...She has been overly loving lately, its about to drive me bonkers, but at the same time I think its so dang cute.

what is super duper annoying is my client today is not coming ( he has a 10 am apt ) all he needs to do is come in so i can go over some worksearch barriers so he can get his unemployment check.. i rescheduled him now 3 times! I am all understanding and all but last time I scheduled him two weeks out so he had time to find a ride.. this monday i call him just to remind him he has a 10 oclock apt ..what does he say.. "im gona try n make it.. " try?????? try???

I'm sick of people. I'm not nice today... so if he doesnt' call me looks like someone is getting a check held.. i'm over it! It is free money basically all you have to do is look for work.. don't even care if you pretend to look.. just do it..

Fecking fiat! I do know it is devaluation of our currency for the most part. It is also price gouging by fat cat big corporations.

You know what bothers me, is when people gripe about mistakes of EVD, and on Ancient Aliens and such, is that when they spout proof of things of history, and their so called proof is full of wholes, and yet they put off as though we are the nuts! I think they come here, because they are just as nuts as we are, just on another venue! Anyway, thanks for this thread being here, so I can vent to. The proof is out there, it just ain't where anyone is looking yet!
