That corset is tight like Michael Jackson is eccentric.

When brand new stuff is in the trash here in the office. I found a couple of giveaway items with the company's logo in someone's trash. But we have an area where people swap those items so they could have easily just given them away.

At any rate, I am the proud new owner of a laptop case and it's pretty neat! Okay, so it doesn't really make me mad cuz I just got something free!

not only when people put their dogs in the back of pick-up trucks, but when they put their children IN STROLLERS in the back of pickups. Yeah...that happened awhile ago, but it still burns my a$$

UGH> and unappreciative bosses

at our office we are creating a newsletter to send to all of our patients. In the newsletter we are going to have our bios in there, etc. Well, last night, the front desk lady and I got the bright idea to play a joke on our doctor. We made the "real" bios sheet (for him to proof read) and then the "joke" one. We had the regular bios, but thrown in there nonchalantly were different extracurricular activities.
One girls was :in her spare time, natalie poses for nude art
another one: Kelly teaches pole dancing at the local YMCA
Mine: panty model @ Victoria's Secret (I DID work at VS, but NOT as a panty model!! ) Her established webside is www.pantiesgonewild.com
another one: christie gives private lapdances and strips for local bachelor parties.

I swear-they night before I couldn't hardly hold it in. I was telling everyone I couldn't wait until the staff meeting the next morning to give it to him (which was today) THE F*CKING A$$HOLE got pissed. Because he thought we took time from his "precious" time clock to do all that. It makes me so made because he is such a stick in the mud. THe man is going to have a heart attack or stroke-we are just trying to prolong it to allow him to have a little fun. I guess it makes me mad mostly because we did it for HIM!! It wasn't for us...and he was a dork about it. Ugh...okay. I'm done. sorry

saving up money for something, then by the time you can afford it, it's "discontinued...but..I'll look in the back to see if we have more...*time passing...time passing* no..I'm sorry. We don't have any."


oh. and getting in the shower and there is no soap.

[DrummerDeanna]

^^

The soap thing isn't as bad as:

--Going to the bathroom and realizing there is no toilet paper That is the WORST.

Another pet peeve:

People who claim to be so open-minded but are, in reality, just as closed-minded as those they ridicule/denounce

[michelle2677]

yeah, I get that. But once you're in the shower and all wet, it really sucks to get out and freeze your ass off to find soap.

or a towel.

but yes. The TP thing is horrid.

That's true too...and then your towel is all cold and wet when your shower is done....and the floor is all wet from your scrambling to get soap..ok - that one is up there too

[michelle2677]

ahh..but the opposite of pet peeve is a nice warm towel out of the dryer!!!

[carrie721]

my current pet peeves ...

people thinking that what they want is their fukcing birthright. it's not.

last night, my two friends (the ones who threw a tantrum when i couldn't go to their house for tgiving) called me at midnight. i didn't answer b/c i was in bed, but i did listen to the voicemail they left. they were "rolling into town" and wanted to "hit up the bars" before they closed. i didn't call back but they did - 4 more times, until 1 a.m. wtf. i called back this evening as my shift was ending at work to see if they wanted to do something tonight, but they said f*ck you, we're on our way to annapolis now. WTF??? for one thing, it takes 4 hours to get from south bend, indiana, to kent. they could have called me at 8 when they were leaving if they wanted to make plans. secondly, who gets pissed off at someone for not getting together when they were only in town for less than 24 hours? jesus.

then tonight at work ... this girl came in and asked if we cater. i said no, we do party trays, but we don't cater. then she said she wants to place an order for cuban black bean soup. i explained we only have that on the menu once in a while, we can't accommodate her. she looked at me as if i had told her i had run over her grandmother. she paused for an uncomfortable 15 seconds and then said "why?" i said, we just don't do that. i'm sorry. then she got all pissy and stormed off on her friggin' huffy bike. wtf people? if i went in somewhere and asked for something they didn't serve, i would say oh, sorry, nevermind. apparently i was not aware that she had some letter signed by god that said she was supposed to receive cuban black bean soup whenever she demanded it ...

[michelle2677]

Aww sorry carrie. The bitch with the bean soup? screw her. You don't even need to concern yourself with that crap. Your friends? Uh. Wtf? Yes. They should have called way sooner. Cuz then you could have poss taken a nap to be able to go out for awhile.

thanks. my issue with the bean soup lady sounds really petty, but it's just one example of how demanding and immature people are acting around the holidays. so many people think they're the only people dealing with holiday stress, they demand, demand, demand.

and those friends are always demanding like that. i am supposed to drop everything whenever they are in town because they come through so rarely, it's like a "treat" for me! gag. i love 'em, but there's a reason i don't go out of my way to spend time with them. if they wanted to plan something ahead of time, i would be more than willing, tho.

[michelle2677]

Oh. I didnt mean that to sound like i thought it war petty! Not at all. I worked retail so i know how bitchy peeps can be during the holidays and maybe this time since you didnt jump for your friends they might not take it for granted that you're always going to be available

i'm hoping they'll get the hint. i used to get out of bed to hang out with them when they'd call until about a year and a half ago, and i stopped. i just don't get enough out of that relationship to be their on-call entertainment when they're in town. plus i like sleeping.

bullseye! Omg! I have a pic for you. I took it of a t shirt. I'll txt it to you. Brb

Current pet peeve-when people decide to do their entire effin banking at 5 on a friday-in the drive thru i'm also a little put off by toilets that flush automatically. But that's a little personal
