Let’s dispense with the passive/aggressive behavior, shall we? Your comment is unwarranted, particularly as I’ve noticed that in 2 years you’ve reported a grand total of zero posts for rules violation.
I drop in and read these posts only periodically. They have given me such an appreciation for the challenges so many have in their lives that I would normally never be privy to. I know for many this is a place to vent but I just wanted to say that reading these has made me a better and more compassionate person.
Me: day after return from an aforementioned trip. I try to start up my computer. It tells me ‘wrong passoword’.
Me; Try again, same result. Make sure ‘caps lock’ is off, try again. Same result.
Me; Power off/power on. Same result. Now I’m saying bad words in my head.
Me: Try one more time, typing really slowly. Same result. Now I am saying very bad things out loud.
Me; Hmmm…let’s trouble shoot the keyboard. This is just to odd. Sure enough. Some of the keyboard letters are inputting the wrong info.
Me: Asks son, who has been house sitting - if by any remote chance someone might have spilled something on keyboard.
He: Oh, no. Why do you ask?
Me: The keys are broken.
He; _ oh. I was working on a project and that keyboard was acting funny. I figured it was a software problem so I switched it with the one from your system. I guess it was a hardware issue.
Me; It IS 5:00 o’clock somewhere…
If this legislation passes, I will officially be broken. I cannot do it. And people wonder why college costs so much. Of course, this won’t increase costs here … I will just have to petition God to add a few hours to the day so I can do the work expected of me.
Lurking! Lurking! I said that annoying coworker was always lurking in the hallway.
Not twerking.
Can’t unsee it now.
Mr. Contractor, the next time you accuse me of delaying your project, you might want to check that you attached the document in question to your email, or at least reference said document in the email so I can tell you there was nothing attached. Now you’re in a panic because cold weather has arrived and we haven’t fabricated your product. Hmm, I first asked the questions back in JULY!! Sometimes I get tired of the construction industry.
I think you’re taking advantage of me. I paid your outrageous bill, but I won’t automatically call you to do work in the future. Anything else from here on in is going to be a bidding situation.
I know that you’re an adult, but you’re 22 and not 42. You’ve had had to deal with a lot of crap in the past six weeks. Wish I could be near you.
Can we please stop with the birthday celebrations? We all have one, every year. Do we really need to do this? It’s a place of employment. If I really feel the need to celebrate your most personal of days … the day of your birth … I will ask you to lunch. I know I’m a crab, but this is work. I don’t want to pretend I really care that it’s so-and-so’s birthday. (Maybe I have had too many myself, but it’s really NOT that big a deal to have a birthday. We all do. Once a year.)
A very nice middle-age couple just moved from their house to an efficiency over a store. They had to sell to pay the bills from the husband’s stroke. Yes, they had insurance. We really need a better system when all but the 1% are one bad event away from destitute.
Boo-hoo. Poor you. :((
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…
I am so very tired of your thoughts and prayers. Faith without works is dead.
So after I raise an issue, you storm off in a huff, don’t talk to me for a day, make dinner, and now think everything is OK? No way, bucko.
I ask you to stop doing something you’re doing, and even tell you why, and you argue with me or want to explain yourself? You can never just say yes, can you? I tell you that the cat has gotten into something that you left out, and you want to tell me that you didn’t? Really?
Well, maybe I will reach the point of saying this IRL.
I am getting tired of all this “winning”
Best news of the day!

I’m sad that your child/partner/work/parents/inlaws/friends have somenhow all decided to unload their Big Issue thingt to you this week. A person can only take so much, and you are being so graceful in all of those interactions.
If we can’t find someone to take the dogs for that week, we will be home alone over Christmas and our sons will converge together without us. Pleeeeeeease be able to take the dogs for that week. It would mean a lot to us.
This is one of many many reasons I dislike you. God, you are so selfish. I got locked out of my room because my key got stolen, so when I asked you if I could use his bathroom for shower, you refused because it “weirds” you out???
Just what makes you think it’s weird? Do you think I will do something to your shampoo or soap??? No one is going to see anybody naked, so it must be you with unclean thoughts. It’s not me asking to use your bathroom that’s weird; it is YOU who seems to have very, very inappropriate imagination of your own.
In fact, two of my roomates are so profoundly selfish. Why do I ALWAYS get roommate who don’t seem to understand the concept of “consideration for others?”
You are SIXTY-three, not three. Last night I asked you to please not turn out the light in the living room so that I didn’t have to walk in the dark to get to bed. So tonight I come home and every freaking light in the house is on???
When I got home at midnight from moonlighting to pay bills because you don’t contribute to household or medical expenses- even your own …
