Of course! I also give to all of my employees a copy of my requirements. I've got a copy hanging up next to my office for corn sake! But I give way too many chances which is definitely one of my problems.
ETA: part of my requirements is that for every day taken off for doctor's appointments, I need to have a hand signed Dr's note.
Several of my students have allergy issues and every time they sneeze, they have big ole snot rockets hanging out of their nose. Some of them don't understand the purpose of a Kleenex, so they just let it dangle for a bit. I have one student (10 years old, mind you) whose mom stops by and BLOWS HIS NOSE FOR HIM. Gah.
I know a kid who is 6 or 7 years old & has his parents come wipe him after he poops. He has no health issues or any other issues that would prevent him from doing it other than he whines until they come in there. If they don't come in there he simply pulls up his pants & goes on with his day. That kid needs a wake up call. Or rather his parents do. I know he goes to school so I have no idea what goes on there.
Pretty much anyone that declares "I hate _____ (insert thing which they know absolutely NOTHING about)" goes on my "Freakazoid" list in general.
I'm not a fan of your hubby when he gives me a ticket (Yes, I deserved it but let's focus on the cops! lol) but I sure appreciated the police when my parents home was broken into.
My husband pissed me off royally last night. He was passing gas in his sleep and basically gassed me out of the room. I told him he was nasty and he needed to take something for it (and I get it, how can you control that while sleeping?) and yelled that I was going to sleep on the couch. I think he should have offered since I am 82 weeks pregnant and he is just gassy and gross.
** quote fail **
This made me LOL at work.
"Your truth is different from my truth, and we're both right."
TTC since March 2013. BFP 4/13/13, blighted ovum discovered 6/6/13, m/c 6/8/13.
I really can't stand it when people lie. Especially when the truth would benefit them more & there is not even a near logical reason for them to lie. I have a coworker who lies all the time & they honestly do it just for the sake of doing it. They get so mixed up that they don't even know who they told what to. If they are going to lie to me, they could at least realize that I'm intelligent & try to make up a better lie that's halfway believable.
I have been on hold with the pharmacy for 10min. TEN. Why is no one picking up the damn phone?!?!
I am already 4 hours late to work because of this damn insurance bullshit. I swear to god I am going to blow a gasket if this shit doesn't get taken care of soon. I need my insulin, and I needed it for breakfast. It's now fucking lunch, and this girl is ready to kill if you make her wait any longer for a meal.
Ugh I should have started this thread at 3 am with my bitch in the Random thread.
I finally got to sleep at 4:30 am, thankfully (for his own sake) SO had the common sense to *not* wake me up to make his lunch.
I didn't wake up until 11:45 and the first thing I proceeded to do is spill a tall freaking glass of pop all over the couch, down my side, and onto the carpet.
Fuck you, Monday!
@symphony4586 - your SO wakes you up to make his lunch? Is this a regular thing?
---Stuck in Grey---
I'm not working right now and feel guilty about it, usually on days he has to go in early I'll put the offer on the table that if he's running late in the morning to go ahead and wake me up to do it. We're trying to save money and I'd rather he do that then have to go out and buy something or I end up having to bring it to him later.
FTR. Anyone that says to me, "I hate cops" is a fucking idiot.
You sound like a moron who is trying to be all hardcore when really, you look like a twat with authority issues.
I'll remember you hate cops when your house is broken into, you survive a mugging or a rape, or your kid gets lost. Half of my life would be ripped away because my husband is in Law Enforcement. I used to be Law Enforcement AND the Courts, so you are not winning any kewlkid points with me when you declare that shit.
Vent over.
Pisses me off too. I'm always like "thank you. My FIL is a Sargent and an amazing man."
My DH's cousin was married to a chick who was an EMT. Awesome. Good for you! But she HATED firefighters and thought they "took the easy way out" by becoming FF vs EMT's. Hmm. I'll remember that if my Uncle ever needs to come rescue your ass. Oh, he's a FF AND an EMT.
I'm VERY proud of my family in emergency services. Very proud of any man or woman who puts on the uniform, really.
This bitch is regarding something that happened almost a year ago, but I wasn't on TB then and something reminded me of it recently. I can't stand when people use their limited experiences to try and claim expertise on something. Anything. DH's cousin is with this guy who is just an all around arrogant ass, and he posted a status on Facebook about how it's just a myth that Southerners call all soda "coke," because he's traveled all over the South and never heard it. Really? You've been to EVERY city and talked to EVERY person so that you can make a generalization about an entire region? I commented pointing out that I grew up in the Atlanta area and I and all my friends call it that. He acted like he didn't even see my comment and kept on about how it's a bunch of bull. Honestly if it were anyone but him it probably wouldn't have bothered me that much but I can't stand this guy. He also once posted something about how well he did in a race he ran, having eaten a Twinkie and drank a COKE beforehand, and laughing about all the "hippies who eat organic food" he probably beat. I unfollowed him after a whole because his updates would always make me mad.
I can't deal with people's nonsense anymore. Most especially my USUALLY sweet SO. NO, I'm not working right now due to health problems & problems receiving my pay. I AM still contributing to our household bills & necessities because I am still receiving a paycheck (my employer got over 12K behind in paying me- LONG story). I wish he would stop with the stressing about money, and also with his OCD cleaning. I'm supposed to be doing minimal activity right now- don't give me dirty looks over not vacuuming on Sunday when I vacuumed & mopped the whole house on Saturday. & guess what? I'm not going to today either! It DOESN'T NEED IT!!!! I'm also leaving my cereal bowl and any other dishes I use today in the sink. He will flip out. I don't care. He needs zanax. If I can't take my anxiety meds while pregnant- I need him to take them so that he will chill out. This OCD cleaning of his was funny before pregnancy- 3rd trimester & feeling like crap- not so funny or cute anymore. I am in a horrible mood and just want to yell, kick, & throw things like a child's tantrum. Also- I am sick & tired of his parents asking when we're getting married. I've explained numerous times that we put it off a year after we got my BFP because I want to wait until after baby girl gets here so I am not pregnant in my wedding. This pregnancy was a (happy) surprise, and I don't want to focus on a wedding when pregnant. His parents still act as though we're horrible& this grand baby won't mean as much as their others because we aren't yet married. Screw them.

We painted all day yesterday (trying to save money and just do it ourselves), so today my body is killing me. I called DH and he didnt' wake up until 12 today. Must be nice to be the boss and be able to sleep in when you are tired and sore!
Also I drank a Dr. Pepper with my lunch today and now I just want to take a nap.
I-) That sugar puts me to sleep!
And I have to go to NYC for my brother's wedding this weekend and I'm dreading all the walking. He lives on a 5th floor walk up so that's going to be so fun for this 31 weeker!
And finally...we are moving next weekend and I have nothing packed. I'm tired and working full time on top of taking care of DD. Who wants to move me?
I want to slap my new co-worker. She has no concept of how windows based programs work. She keeps asking, "Why does this window keep popping up after I close that one?". Ummm, that one was already up before you opened the one you just closed. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! IT'S NOT THAT COMPLICATED!
I just want to say, "Welcome to the 21st century! This new fangaled contraption is called a computer!" She is driving me insane.
Plus she's this big natural birth, dr. oz, breastfeeding pusher type person. She's made it very clear that she gave birth to her children all naturally and breast fed as long as she could because she "had to do what's best for the baby!!!". Step off, bitch. I had a c section so my child and I would, you know, live. I also formula fed so that I could take some medicine that would ensure I wouldn't go even crazier than I already was and hurt one or both of us. But shame on me for not doing what's best for the baby. Bitch.
@LiteraChick I don't hate cops by any means. My cousin's husband is a cop and a good one at that. But I have come across rude cops looking to flex their power and have made me feel like a criminal when I was trying to cooperate with them. That I don't appreciate.

This is me right now.
Wtf? About how old is she? Computer skills is kind of a thing nowadays.....lol
We are doing it as slowly as possible. The only problem is that the people that can help us (both of our parents) are going to be out of town that weekend.
My good friend has offered to help me pack during the week and also watch DD while we move. We've moved most of the baby stuff over there but we were trying to paint before moving anything else.
I had to take the 3hr glucose test this meowing and it took every once of me not to throw up. It made me feel so ill! So I finish, come home, eat and almost pass out. After finishing the drink, I've had diarreah 4x and cannot keep my eyes open for the life of me. Good morning Monday...

I have a 2nd bitch to get out. There's a guy "friend" (in quotes because he has an agenda) who blows my phone up morning to night and doesn't get the hint when I don't chat. Being single and pregnant doesn't mean I need a fucking white knight, it means I got this and stop fucking texting me all damn day!! Stop asking me questions trying to draw me into conversation with you!! Stop stalking my facebook posts and then texting me about them!! And realize I'm a single working mom with 2 boys, 2 dogs, 8 chickens, a house to take care of, work to do, and a baby to grow!! Ahhhhhhhhhhh...
I am absolutely fuming. Like, smoke coming out of my ears. I just met with the GD counselor/teacher, and I swear I've never felt so condescended to in my whole life. As in "Carbohydrates are found in many foods...." I'm a freaking chemistry teacher for goodness' sake. I kept having to tell her "Okay, I get it. I understand." As if this GD crap isn't bad enough, I have to feel like I'm an idiot. I understand they have to make it comprehensible for even the least-educated people that come in the office, but at least gauge your patients' previous knowledge before you insult their intelligence. And I can't even come home and eat ice cream
@SarahVol131you are so sweet and patient.
Your new coworker is a crazy ho and should shut her damn mouth. No one knows your experience. Good for you for making the decisions that were best for your health, your daughter, and your family!
P.S. Dr oz is a quack! IMO he looks strung out and I'm just waiting for the day that he's revealed as an addict.
Thank you! Although, more than sweet and patient I'm more really good at keeping my mouth shut! Don't get me started on Dr. Oz. He ranks with Jenny McCarthy in my book.

After 3 days of boring bed rest I had to come home from work early because I'm sick. Work is my only time off bed rest. Boo!
I decided to be "vulnerable" w my mom about pg in hopes to help out relationship.( I don't include her on much of anything) I tell her I'm on modified bed rest for 1 week and doc will evaluate whether it stays, or becomes strict bed rest. The next morning I get a call from her at the butt crack of dawn telling me she's talked to all 47 women she works with 'because u know, we've all had babies' and bed rest is very common. Then she proceeds to tell me so and so and so and so and so and so's birthing stories. WTF?! I don't care!! I cut her off saying I've got to go and she gets pissy about don't I want to hear?! No. I don't. And SHAME ON ME FOR TRUSTING U WITH ANY INFORMATION. Burned again.
DH is a work-a-holic. But when it comes to household responsibilities, he checks out. He asked me why the floor by the door is full of leaves and wood chips...Because the dogs tracked it in and I'm on bed rest therefore I'm not vacuuming. Take the reins buddy. Take the reins.
I don't know. She's good at the other aspects of the job, but training her is taking forever because she can't figure out anything related to computer work. She talks incessantly too. I want to ask her if she has a word limit she has to hit every day or she will perish.
Several of my students have allergy issues and every time they sneeze, they have big ole snot rockets hanging out of their nose. Some of them don't understand the purpose of a Kleenex, so they just let it dangle for a bit. I have one student (10 years old, mind you) whose mom stops by and BLOWS HIS NOSE FOR HIM. Gah.
I know a kid who is 6 or 7 years old & has his parents come wipe him after he poops. He has no health issues or any other issues that would prevent him from doing it other than he whines until they come in there. If they don't come in there he simply pulls up his pants & goes on with his day. That kid needs a wake up call. Or rather his parents do. I know he goes to school so I have no idea what goes on there.
That's awful! I can't even imagine. That wouldn't fly too well at school I wouldn't guess.

He's an idiot. Everything is a coke until we specify what kind we want. At least in my neck of the Southern woods it is.
I'll be the outsider on this one, though I'm not supporting the original bitch about the cousin's BF. Born and raised outside Atlanta and now live ITP. If I ask for a coke, I want a coke. Coke =/= Pepsi. Though the chances of getting a Pepsi down here are slim.
