The Official 'Im Annoyed' Thread
 
Im pissed off today :mad:

First of all, I noticed that my car's Warrent of Fitness ran out yesterday, and they did not send me a letter to remind me - so Im driving without insurance. Secondly, both my full time staff called in sick - and hour after they were supposed to be here, leaving me to return hundreds of ex-chart CDs, and serve customers and do everything else by myself, and that throws my whole day out of whack :mad:

Sorry, I had to vent :laugh:

Sorry about your day ((((((Michael))))
Sucks when you depend on coworkers and they let you down.

carrie721 02-28-2007 05:32 PM

screw that, michael. coworkers suck.

foxyluva 02-28-2007 05:42 PM

Oh god, now Im getting verbally abused by customers. What next, almost beaten up again like last week :rolleyes:

DrummerDeanna 02-28-2007 05:45 PM

OMG!! Michael..I'm not even kidding when I say I've been kicking around starting an "I'm pissed off today" Thread too!

I've been in the most foul of moods today.

Sorry about the insurance and coworkers...that sucks ass. Any penalties for having a gap in insurance..or will it fine if you're not caught?


Why am I pissed off. The broken glasses/no elliptical is one reason.

The other? I was jolted awake way early by my upstairs asshole neighbors who do laundry EVERY day. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. No kids, they're an older married couple, for the life of me I can't figure out why they would need to do laundry EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

Why does this bother me? Because they do it between 6-7am and are right above me - I hear the damn washer....

BUT today? They had an unbalanced load, and the washers we have don't stop when that happens, they just raise bloody hell.

I woke up thinking we were being bombed!!! It was awful, and went on and on and on because she put the damn laundry on and left.

Ok..whatever. Then the gym was crowded (which NEVER happens) and someone broke one of the weight machines last night..one I Needed today.

Then I went to get a perscription filled...all their computers were down :lol:


I should have stayed home...because I've been one angry bitch all day.

/rant.


.wow. That felt good.

Its hard, and we get payed **** for what we have to put up with. Last week a drunk customer attacked me in store, and got all up in my face - I thought he was going to kill me. I went home that night and cried my eyes out...

For sure. I worked directory assistance for Verizon and Nextel a few years ago, and I was never treated so badly. Some guy told me to "fukcing die" when I couldn't find some stripper partyline for him, and I got a mouthful from all the drunks trying to call a taxi place.

Retail/customer service is hell. Carrie and Michael, keep your heads up!:nod:

:eek: And I thought my night was bad.

I closed the store at 11 pm, as I always do. Shut down the register, shut down the computer and was just about to make our monthly back-up when there is someone banging on the door. Usually I don't open the door anymore after 11, but he wouldn't stop it. So, I open the door and ask him what the heck his problem is. He says it's his birthday and he has a lot of friends at home and he NEEDS to rent a movie. He made it sound like it was of international importance, as if human kind would become extinct due to nuclear bombs if he didn't get a movie. So I go, dude, I already closed everything, the lights are even out, I can't help you. He keeps going on and on and on, until I finally decide to just shut the door. He puts his foot in between. And then he starts screaming at me. He happened to be Turkish, and he was accusing me of not helping him because of that. :rolleyes: That pissed me off. But I couldn't close the door because his damn foot was still blocking it. Then his friends get out of the car. I was starting to get really nervous at this point. They started saying the same things he was, and they got louder and louder by the minute. Just as one of his friends started pushing against the door to open it further a guy walked by and saw what was going on and got involved, threatening to call the police if they didn't move away. He already had his cellphone in his hand and I guess that was enough to scare them away. I don't think I want to know what might have happened if he hadn't shown up. :shocked:

So yeah, we all have bad days at work now and then. :cool:

^jesus. that's crazy. :shocked: that's one of the reasons i hate being alone in the store after we close. and i never, ever open the door after we close because half the people walking by and slamming on the door are crazy and drunk.

goldustsongbird 02-28-2007 06:19 PM

^ Stories like that scare the **** out of me. I'm glad you're both okay! :xoxo:

preaching to the choir, baby. After working in retail, all I can say is my next job better be something office-ish 'cause some days, I just feel like telling the customers to go f*ck themselves with a metal rod. :rolleyes: :lol:

Okay, NOW I am annoyed because I just finished the last episode of Grey's Anatomy after a WEEK long marathon (yes, all ****ing 3 seasons) and the last 3 were sob worthy and I'm on an emotional high right now and there are NO more episodes to watch. WTF. I could kill my sister for making me watch this show.

Well, her and Michelle a little bit. Thanks Michelle. :rolleyes:

ugh. i'm so over grey's after the last three episodes. seriously? i mean seriously? like they were going to kill off meredith grey. lame. the writers need to be slapped. meredith could have had a wake up call without a very contrived and ridiculous plot involving a ferry accident. the only part that really hit me like a ton of bricks was the very end of the episode when denny's spirit was in time with izzies. gaaah. i died a little.

apparently the **** is hitting the fan on the set (more so than before). an addison spinoff in the works!

what's with everyone? jeez louise, they were good eps! okay, granted, the meredith stuff was a bit ridiculous and ofcourse she wasn't going to die, but hey, mcdreamy was crying...that made it all worthwhile. :D it's tv people, go with the flow. but yes, the denny and izzie stuff was really, really great, that hit me too.

oh, but she has a contract that says that if the show is going to be a flop, she'll go straight back to grey's anatomy. sounds like they really have faith in all this. :laugh: honestly, what would this show be about? she was married for 12 years, probably straight through/after medical school, she doesn't even have an interesting past. beats me. :shrug:

honestly, meredith is not my favorite character and now that she and mcdreamy are together without any friction it's like, oookay -- what's next writers? and so far the next has been more than a little dissapointing. i'm not saying they should have been all mulder and scully for the next few seasons this show is on but for crying out loud, how many more times can one character examine her relationship with a man?

i like the character of addison a lot but i agree -- i can't see it being about much unless she plans on taking the character of mcsteamy with her and even that will get old after a while.

regardless, i hope the writers come up with something better than what they've been churning out as of late!

interestingly enough, i was just discussing this with my sister (yes, i woke her up at 4.30 in the morning, her own damn fault) and we talked about how in the old days tv was all about the ust and then if or when they finally got together it was usually the end. ust is what keeps people tuning in. so, yes, the lack of friction is somewhat frustrating, and meredith is not really my fav character either (i hate how she seems to have only one expression on her face) but i still think they're cute together so i don't want to see that messed up. my sister told me stuff was going to happen though (she's a spoiler ho), so there'll be friction. and the thing about these last 3 eps was that it wasn't really about their relationship, it had more to do with her estranged and messed up relationship with her mother and how she needed to make peace with a few things. i thought it was interesting. :shrug:

please...mcsteamy. now HE annoys the crap out of me. i agree though that there's still something to be done about that relationship, but somehow it interests me less. none of the relationships are really all that interesting (george's the least, ugh) and it irritates me that they all sleep with everyone but the good old days of building up a relationship and truly developing characters (even if it takes years) are gone. people are just not that patient anymore, the world is moving in a much faster pace.
