I have had just about enough of fucking idiots fucking up my fucking life.
1. Two completely moronic asshole fucks for supervisors (one of them over medicated and obsessed with her sparkly socks and Johnny Depp)
2. One dimwitted moronic depressed borderline suicidal office manager
3. One princess/queen human resource director with a drooling vapid stare
4. One landlady consumed with paranoia and a serious obsessive/compulsive disorder
5. One internet provider customer service (comcast) who cannot get my address corrected and it's been two months (surprise surprise)
6. A gazillion over medicated Floridian old timers fucking up the roads and demanding the entire state recognize that they are on vacation.

I have more, but my blood pressure is rising. I need a drink but I quit 20 years ago. Fuck me sideways.

4. It's fine until your staff is asking you questions to help the fucking customer who
has been hanging on hold for the past 20 minutes.

56. Look for another place to rent. IME, property managers are MUCH easier to deal with than
an individual who owns the property and rents it him/herself.

9. Honey, what kind of big, green caviar is that? It looks tasty.
Although I hate caviar. But I know what GW is saying. There've been at least two instances in the past week that have made me want to just slap people silly. One was the slow, long diagonal across the street (although I'm a pedestrian myself) and the other was "protect my delicate fanny from the likes of all impending germs" and just LEAVE the TP on a public toilet seat for the rest of us to remove.

11. Don't get me started about toilet seats!
Why why why must people piss all over the seats? At work...at Whole Foods...wherever. I need to carry Scrubbing Bubbles with me just in case.

15. The last time I was in a men's room was in college,
but I find women to be exactly as odious, sometimes, in their bathroom behavior. It makes me want to give someone a "squirrely".

33. OK, some joker left
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 10:20 PM by Sugar Smack
a solid souvenir of her visit NEXT to the toilet. NEXT to it, and by that I mean, didn't just go & not flush, but had herself a wild time on the floor.

What are people thinking? Are they people? I asked my friend what I'd done to deserve this, and she slowly shook her head & backed away from me, as though "bad luck" or "bad timing" rubs off. We're friends again but STILL!

That made my day. He was a contractor/builder. I will never forget his face. Bastid.

40. WTF is it WITH some people? I won't even suggest they were raised
by wolves or in a barn or what-have-you. Too good for those particular freaks. I'm not GETTING why people like this are allowed to roam polite society, if you can call it that, at best. They dress in baseball caps, hoops, no hat, and in shirts and pants. "No shirts, no shoes, no service". Well, what about acting like a person? Shit-flinging monkeys don't do this, so I'm told.

41. Their true nature comes out in motel rooms
Pale waspy couples dressed in suits and chiffon dresses leave used condoms all the fuck over the room...in every nook and cranny...on every table, dresser, bathroom sink...almost like they're leaving a tip.

I've seen it all. One guy left his fake leg and never came back for it.

43. FAKE LEG, and he never came back for it.
:wtf: Okay, you really have seen it all, I think. I will never ever shake my head in disbelief at you. I never have, but it is also a promise that I never will. Why is it that some people are sheltered from this stuff and others endure it? Is it left to the "writers" to find out the obscene side of human nature? Can it be we're "blessed"?

And again, :wtf:

45. And that wasn't my first experience with detached leg
I worked at a Boston hospital for a few years and one day the path lab sent an amputated leg to a lab for analysis but dispatch left it in the corner of an elevator and it rode up and down for several hours til someone located it. That was hilarious...to us...probably not the owner.

51. I think we're like that, but add in the mooning supervisors and taking
the car out for a full-frontal spin while outrunning cops and parents is also pertinent, if not absolutely relevant. :D Oh, you SO have my number.

:P :rofl: :loveya: I know all about that, young man. I used to go to Michael's craft store. I thought I was the one who invented, INVENTED peacock-feathers and eucalyptus-leaves. Hardly. Those came around in the sixties, when I was no more than an itch between my momma's legs.

8. You know, it's amazing how some of these people get into positions to f**k up your life.
It used to be that I thought people in power were "the best and the brightest" that particular organization/institution/corporation had to offer. Not anymore. I've seen some real losers get promoted to real positions of power, then proceed to do great damage to those underneath. At best, they're incompetent and can just stay out of the way. But, mostly they begin to actually believe they got there on sheer smarts, leadership ability, and competence. As my mom used to say, "They began believing their own press releases." But I've seen them come into work decked out in executive-like garb, from head to toes as it seems they believe the first step toward the power-position is to dress like an executive. Unfortunately for many, it stops there as well.

12. I talked to a temp agency today who used to send employees to this place
She told me that she spoke with the hr person about their whacko supervisors. The company didn't give a shit...these people show up everyday so I guess that's a good thing. Needless to say, the temp agency doesn't send any more people there.

still good advice from you.

32. I live there as well
In Maine...part of the time in Jersey. Grew up in Jersey. Moved to Maine. Gotta tell ya, I did get my sanity back..."slowed down" to say the least and was able to stop and smell the roses (as they say). Did not know she originally came from there. She's may be planning a meet-up when she returns...I would love to come. Christ, what a pisser! Thanks for the info...haven't been here long enough to know that.

44. It seems as though the first half of your list is tied to your job.
If you can't switch jobs completely, any chance you could transfer elsewhere within the company? I wouldn't want to assume too much here, but from my own experience, if I had those three factors going on in the workplace, I'd guess it would only be a matter of time before somebody would have to leave (unfortunately it ended up being me in this case)

I have the obsessive-paranoid landlord too, but fortunately mine is one of those "snowbirds" so he doesn't bother me much in the winter as long as the rent gets in his bank account.

As for Comcast, nobody escapes those criminals, unfortunately. They have been overbilling me by a month for three years, and refuse to remove the spurious charges, even though they can't produce any evidence that I ever missed a month. Since Comcast is a pseudo-monopoly nearly everywhere they exist, they take on the attitude of "we're right, you're wrong and whattya gonna do about it, go with crappy ass DSL?"

Couldn't tell you what my blood pressure is though... I keep forgetting to pick up the AAA batteries for my BP monitor :(

In other words though, it sounds like we know the same fucking idiots (or they would be if you weren't in the opposite corner of the country) :evilgrin:
