WTF WEDNESDAY

Oh yes. We got a fine for having our satellite dish on the back of our house on the roof. Apparently it's distracting to the neighbors and a sore sight to the community.

Fuck HOA. Where am I supposed to put it?? No one can see it where it is now, they're crazy! They probably want us to put it in our backyard below the fence -line so WE have to look at it but no one else. I'd gif but I'm getting ready for work. Grrrrrrrrr.

sarah0985 · March 2016

I was such a dummy this morning. I work out in the mornings before work. My gym is 5 minutes from work (35 from my house) so I bring shower and work stuff with me. I have to be at work at 7:30 so I finish my workout at 7:00 and am about to get in the shower when I realized I have everything with me that I need except work attire!

I I had to drive all the way back to my house and was very late to work. VERY LATE. At least my husband was awake getting ready for work so got in a quickie we wouldn't have otherwise had.

sarah0985 · March 2016

@sugargirl1019 I hate hoa's. They're always going in about ridiculous things. Sorry about your fine.

adele85 · March 2016

@Sugargirl1019 ugh I absolutely hate HOA, if I ever buy another house it will not be in a subdivision....I feel your pain!

cjt121413 · March 2016

@Sugargirl1019 HOAs are ridiculous, and complaining about the satellite dish?! Total WTF.

@sarah0985 that sucks, but you get my respect for a. Working out so early and b. Making the best of a bad morning.

WTF people of FB. One of my former law school classmates posted "how does anyone with student loans afford to buy a house?" And this other girl we went to school with, who is a braggy AW, says "two words: Biglaw. Otherwise you don't." Like everyone can get a Biglaw job making 160k right out of school. She obviously knows the guy she was responding to does not have a Biglaw job and couldn't get a Biglaw job. So basically she's saying, "you don't buy a house, but I do because I'm better than you." She is also one of those who posts Beach Body shit all the time. Annoying and rude. I unfriended her a long time ago, but we have mutual friends. She seems to go out of her way to be a snot. Either that or she has zero social skills. Not sure which.

sarah0985 · March 2016

@cjt121413 thanks. It's definitely a daily mental struggle.
I hate people like that. She probably is both. A snot with no social skills. So rude.
Eta. Also, I have no idea why but I kept reading Biglaw job as blow job. I was like "wait how's she making. Money???"

DiFazette · March 2016

WTF H. Nice job teaching DS to look for, and encouraging him to touch snakes in our yard. Not even like - oh there's a snake, do you see it? He's teaching them where the snakes hide and yesterday DS was lifting up wood from our wood pile 'wooking for the nakes'. Now I have to have my head on a swivel when I'm outside in our fenced in yard, where I thought he was mostly danger free.

MelissaM090 · March 2016

DH gets my WTF. He's better than he used to be, but seems to be under the impression that not feeling 100% warrants a full day home from work. So I got the big dramatic sighs and the 'I really don't feel well' and I had to grit my teeth from yelling 'You're not even sick! You just want a day at home to watch TV and play Playstation!'. But I can't say anything because according to him, whenever he wants to stay home I 'condescend him into going to work'.

So I'm sitting at work, the place I come every day and NEVER call in sick to, trying not to resent the hell out of him but every time he does this I spend the day annoyed because if I'm not all sympathetic towards him and his 'sickness', I'm a huge bitch.

MelissaM090 · March 2016

@sarah0985 - I sympathize. There's nothing more annoying than making a plan to save time and effort then having it backfire so that it causes MORE time and effort. I do dumb stuff like this all the time.

@Sugargirl1019 - Every time I think how much it sucks that we moved into a completely not-friendly, not-neighbourly community I try and remember that there's neighbourhoods like yours that maybe attention isn't such a good thing after all

WTF to DH getting in an argument with me this morning because I don't like potato casserole. That seriously just happened.

I'm sorry he did that but I had to laugh because a few weeks ago my husband picked a fight with me because I made him soup that he had said he was craving. (Home-made) he apparently wanted to make it himself but never said it so I thought I was being nice.

Sounds like your h was in a bad mood and you were his victim to get out his frustrations. Sorry.

Lecool · March 2016

WTF to having to fit 70 hours of work into a 40 hour work week. I worked almost 30 hours of OT last week. Which would be cool, but I'm salary. Looks like this week is going that way too.

& WTF self for Bumping & avoiding this Mount Doom sized pile of work.

momtoleo · March 2016

The dog we're watching for the next 9 days. She bit my husband when she arrived, has never been trained to walk on a leash, won't eat her food and won't come in from outside. I feel bad for her because her owners have done such a bad job raising her that I just want to give her love and reassurance because she seems terrified of life, but I can't be spending 24/7 trying to get her to come inside and it's getting cold with the door open!

furbabymom2007 · March 2016

Wtf DH... Use your brain once in a while.

DH is so forgetful it drives me nuts. I feel like have my conversations with him are:

me: did you remember to bring x?
dH: no i forgot
me: did you do y?
DH: no I forgot
(repeat forever)

It drives me up the wall. I keep a planner, I have a spreadsheet and an outlook calendar, and also monthly calendars all over the place. I check it so often I really have it all memorized. And when I have something, I stop and think about what I need to bring with me. If it is more than 2 things, I make a list. I have post it reminders all over the place just to be safe. I hate not being prepared!

But DH just does not think at all. Is this what having a kindergartener is like? Good grief.

After the SA debacle on Monday (see Monday bitchfest) and the nearly daily convo about him forgetting things... I have decided to take action.

I was going to get a nice fancy etsy like whiteboard to put our weekly schedule on but I couldn't decide on a format. So I ordered an 11x17 inch frame. I will print out a paper with the format I want to help coordinate our week and then write in the glass with dry erase markers.

This is way I can make sure he knows what he has each week, what I have, what the dinner plans are and if needed what he needs to make sure to do or bring. We already have a grocery list app that we can both update and it has helped, but more effort is needed.

We don't even have kids yet! The training must start now.

QBF

Thanks He came back in the room a few minutes later and apologized and we laughed. It was one of those joking and irrelevant conversations that somehow escalated into an argument about potatoes with dinner tonight. We have a "no talky before coffee" rule and this is why.

And that was very sweet of you to try and make his homemade soup for him.

Thanks. We laughed about it too. (Eventually. Unfortunately he carried it out a bit longer that necessary) It was so absurd. I was like you're being ridiculous. You're arguing with me because I made you soup. Who does that?

Neikoda · March 2016

sarah0985 My husband is the cook in the house and a few months ago I made cookies or something. He was all pissy that I made them without him because he wanted to make them. And they say that women are crazy. If I came home to fresh baked cookies, I would be stoked.

Me too haha

My WTF Wednesday is this: TW (I'm pretty sure this calls for a TW)

A small reserve up north of us with about 8300 people just declared a State of Emergency. Why? 6 suicides in the last two months and 140 attempts in the last two weeks alone.

What the heck is happening up there that it's come to this. I'm sad for this and for them.

20T · March 2016

@cjt121413 Ugh, I hate those "biglaw is best" people! I had to unfriend some people I graduated from law school with in the years after we graduated!

canavara · March 2016

WTF at doctors that don't call you back. This isn't a bad date, it's my reproductive health. Doc sent me to the local hospital (she operates in the same network) to get an ultrasound for pelvic pain. The radiology report showed up online for me to access on Monday, but I didn't want to look at it in fear of misinterpreting it. Called the doctor yesterday and left a message that I'd like either a nurse or the doctor to call me back to give me the news. Never called. Finally got my OH to convince me to just sit down with him and look together. 2cm cyst on my right ovary. Which could just be my ovary trying to release an egg and that's not a huge cyst, but why should I have to go google all that information when I paid a doctor?

Sparty18 · March 2016

I don't really have a WTF today, so I'm going to give a positive spin and go with a "Well That's Fantastic" Wednesday. I saw on the Today show this morning that Etsy is joining the ranks of companies expanding their maternity leave - they are giving 26 weeks paid maternity or paternity leave to parents. It does not directly impact me, but it makes me happy to see more companies doing this.

hlynch33 · March 2016

WTF at DH's that do not listen! I was telling mine that I apologize in advance if I'm not myself last week and this next week. I asked him to please just be nicer than usual and do the dishes, haha, I HATE doing dishes. I will do anything and everything else, that is his only responsibility. So anyway, I finish giving him a heads up and he turns to me, while I look horrible and am in ill fitting pjs and says, just so you know, I can't perform on demand and you're going to need to wear something sexy or do something. I got so upset I was speechless! I know that he did not mean it maliciously, our sex life, when our schedules allow it, is great. But after everything I'm going through to try and make this happen he has the audacity to say something like that! Does he not listen to me when I say, don't f**k with me this week lol, this week is not the week for jokes. Ughhh

Shwee25 · March 2016

WTF alarm. Just because I choose to hit snooze 500 times doesn't mean that you can shit out on me on my last alarm and make me an hour late for work.

Funny thing is, I was up at 5:40am ready to go running, and because it was raining and I didn't feel like dragging my ass to the track at our community college, I decided sleeping in was better.

Maybe it was karma.

picklesplease · March 2016

WTF to the people driving this morning!!! I almost got into a couple accidents. One of my biggest pet peeves is people driving under the speed limit in the left lane...well people were driving slow in all of the lanes. It's so frustrating! It also made me 15 minutes late to work!
They had me like:

b182rulez · March 2016

our dryer is not working. Got it repaired and still have wet clothes. WTF man. Plus, now we are out of warrenty. Yet another thing to pay for...

Oh man that sucks, I'm sorry! Do you know what the error code is for the dryer? We had an issue with our washer recently and there were a ton of youtube videos on how to fix it according to the code. Dryers may be different though.

CoonMom · March 2016

*TW loss/mc mentioned*

WTF to my body. I'm having the worst cramps and tender boobs of my life. I knew things change after a loss but still. These cramps are worse than when I miscarried.

PepperAT · March 2016

My WTF goes out to my supervisor. I feel dumb even admitting that this happened. This morning I brought a pen from home to use at work and she freaked out and said I took her good pen?!?! I told her that I brought it from home and she went into this story that she thinks I took it home from work then brought it back so that I could claim that it's mine. Um WTF! It's just a pen lady, calm the F down. She later had one of the other girls take it away from me and give it to her. I feel like I'm in elementary right now. I still can't believe that went down between 2 Adults. I don't even care about the pen, but she clearly does.

Neikoda · March 2016

I'm sorry @dogmomwantinghuman. My cycles were the same way after my loss and I still have a terrible AF. This cycle large clots were a thing and my OB/GYN said its completely normal. Unfortunately our bodies just take a while to re-regulate. I hope things get better and I'm sorry for your loss. Take care of yourself.

mrsdaddario · March 2016

@hlynch33 I just said to a coworker a few weeks ago that people don't get divorced over money/cheating etc. That people get divorced over doing the dishes! It's a constant argument. Finally instead of telling him he needs to do them every once in a while, I have to ask DH all syrupy sweet, beg almost! But hey, it works so who cares right?

WinchesterGirl · March 2016

I'm sorry @dogmomwantinghuman!! It seems like everything is worse after a loss, and this is no exception... Hang in there, and ear all the chocolate!

vintageandrea90 · March 2016

WTF to my totally with it and continent patient shitting the bed this morning. When asked why he did that...he responded with "I didn't think I was allowed to get up." You're joking right? So you just crap yourself? Adults in hospital baffle me. Some of them become the biggest babies I've ever met.

ChaoticWolf · March 2016

My WTF, which is horribly insignificant compared to the previous ones on this thread, is that I woke up three times last night because my dogs were being buttheads. Now I'm all sleepy at work and not getting anything done. Blech.

Aurora1973 · March 2016

My WTF is a little gross, so perhaps a *TMI WARNING* is in order.

I was just heading to our office bathroom when a coworker warned me not to go in because some had pooped on the seat. POOPED. ON THE SEAT. I mean, WTF?!? How...why...why wouldn't you at least clean that up?!?

Also, when I was in another stall, I heard someone come in and apparently clean it up and use the stall. I'm not sure if she's my hero or I think she's crazy...

beary67 · March 2016

My WTF today...every other Wednesday we have a Leadership meeting from 3pm-4pm and there is always this one co-worker who has to comment on everything which always extends our meetings until about 4:30 or 5:00pm. If I don't leave work by 4pm, it takes forever for me to get home, which is why I come in at 7am each morning to leave by 4pm. Well, she's not here today and a group of us were talking about how excited we were because we would get out of the meeting on time today. So I'm all like this...

5 minutes ago, I walk by our President's Office and the admin is talking to him and telling him that "XXX" is going to call in to the meeting. Now I'm all like this...

And I'm imagining my evening commute to be like this...

ETA: sitting in traffic and realized I used are instead of our above. Also, it's now 5:04 EST

TheJerilu · March 2016

My WTF is that my tinnitus is going absolutely bonkers today. To the point where I'm having difficulty getting work done, which today is not a day that I can slack off. Arrrgghhghghg. I might try and leave early today for the sake of my sanity.

@TheJerilu - sorry :-( could it be allergies making it flare up or is this a different issue? Allergy season has commenced in the Carolinas. I bought my value size bottle of Zyrtec yesterday.

mrsdaddario · March 2016

My WTF is me. Stupid TB question. I want to make a signature (which I know how to get IN to do), but will it automatically show up tiny? Or do I have to change the size of the text myself?....

Want a personalized experience?
