Aww, shucks, Zette. I like Gin & Tonic.
Goddamnit, I keep doing that! Forgetting to log out husband fruitbat before I post and thus padding his post count. :mad:
lol fruitbat- are you and Mirabella husband/wife? No problem- we’ll hit a 2 for 1 happy hour sometime 
Hehe, nicely put. How I do hate the “please convince me to stay” threads. Thankfully, most of the people here aren’t buying. It’s a message board, for crying out loud.
Oh, thank God, Mia- I totally didn’t want to buy fruitbat a drink anyway 
Aw hell- gin and tonics for everyone!
Well, sometimes they just ask for it.
In re her coworkers and their insensitivity:
and also in re her Arabic boss:
Sometimes people are down because of their own actions and refuse any help up. After a certain number of these times, my patience (and others’ patience as well, apparently) runs thin.
I also appreciate Blargh’s contribution! I appreciate him/her signing up on this board today and making their first post this one—where they give out IDBB’s LiveJournal.
Oh my god, I never saw any of those posts. Hot damn.
I chose to rely on that whole gift horse/mouth proverb. I do, however, note the coincidence.
Vaya con dios senora Bad Boys. Es la época derecha de crecer.
Hmmm. I forgot about not posting in English. Translation:
God with God. It is the right time to grow.
Thanks Bambi, that post helps me to see IDBB much more clearly.
What I don’t see, is why so many people hate the “I’m leaving” or in this case “I might be leaving” but “could possibly be lurking instead” posts. From what I have seen so far, they provide the board with a fair amount of amusement after the fact. So much more interesting than someone just slinking away into the night, while also providing a place to let everyone bleed off some of the steam that these “poor souls” invariably create during their stay. At least I have yet to see a “leaver” leaving who has not created some kind of a fuss just prior to the big “announcement”.
Sorry. That should be “Go with God.”
Yeah, I don’t remember where or when she posted that, but I keep memorable posts locally on my computer. May have been lost in the Winter of Our Missed Content. Something about her has always rankled me, for some reason. I really don’t know why.
Bambi Hassenpfeffer – although I did read her rant about the Friday afternoon bitch and moan and be a complete ass about non-English speaking people in her journal and here…if you brought that from her journal, be aware, that’s a big no-no here.
If it’s from here, a link is usually a good thing.
Other than that IDBB needs to take a step back, read what the people are saying rather than thinking it’s an attack on her. Her poor taste in word choices here and elsewhere are pretty straight foreward and shows her ignorance of the human existance.
Some of the best people I have known have been of all nationalities. Some of the worst have too. You happen to be an ignorant woman who’s stuck in a job she doesn’t know how to get out of and rather than take it upon herself to get out of the situation, has to bitch about it.
I know what I speak. I am stuck and am afraid to further myself despite the fact I was kicking ass a couple of years ago. The difference between you and me is that I realize it. I also don’t take it to a place like the SDMB anymore and utilize places like my live journal to vent through my day to day shit where I have people that I trust to read. They know if I will take their critcisms with honesty or I will turn around and bite them on the ass, which I usually don’t or they don’t want to comment when I am being an ass. Not that I blame them.
As a former (and possibly future) SDMB drama queen, your best bet it to admit your mistakes, take some time off from the SDMB, rethink your actions on here and if you can deal with future scrutiny (and you will) come back with your head off the burger grill and free of insulting various people whom you believe to be beneath you or don’t come back.
You make the carpet you walk on here. So far you have proven to offend virtually everyone of many walks of life here. Others, well, we all have our reasons for not caring, not seeing it or plain not wanting to get involved.
I for one don’t care what you say. You obviously have no sense of decorum or are just using the race card as an excuse as to why you are being held back. HAHA, that’s just funny. At least I have an excuse, I am too scared to get a job where I actually excell at again. I am too intimidated by those that are senior engineers. I am plain out a fucking wuss to all things work place oriented.
But you will never be satisfied with anything you ever do in your life if you look at it with the race glasses you seem to wear. It’s sad really. There were the days when that would really be an issue but today, anyone with some drive in their blood and mind will stop blaming those outside themselves and look inside to see what is wrong. Once they figure it out they (hopefully – which is where I am) will try to do what they can to get back on their feet.
The worst thing you can do is blame outside you. YOU, ONLY YOU, make your life as good or as miserable as it is. ONLY YOU, see that flipping burgers is sucky and bad. Hell, there are people around the world that could be making millions of dollars yet they chose jobs like teaching because it fullfills them. There are people that because of circumstances TRULY not their fault, they plug through the day at jobs they hate yet don’t utter a word of discontent and don’t blame other people for their misery.
If you want content, then get a goal. If you want content, look at why you stay were you are. Only you can make a difference.
If you don’t get that from what others have been saying here, then please go about your life and leave the SDMB free of your racist and whoa-is-me comments. I hate to admit it, but I have learned a lot from these people here, in some of my darkest times. I don’t post as much because I do have other things that I enjoy but I still value some of the even painful lessons here.
Take it or leave it. But know that some of the shit you have posted is just out and out fucking rude.
I generally stay out of this kind of stuff, but I finally have an outlet for what has been eating away at me since I first joined this board…
IDBB, you don’t know what goth is. If you did, you would not go around annoucing it to draw attention to yourself. It’s not so much the Disney thing, so much as you care too much about mundane things! Well, that and the fact that you must annouce it any chance you get. So stop ruining the true meaning of goth and get over yourself.
Oh, and should we start a pool to see how long before she posts again?
Good golly Miss Molly, whatever gave you THAT idea? Seriously. Have you not noticed, for example, that most people who rant about their jobs in the Pit manage to do so without slamming people of other ethnicities? And if a poster does so, he or she gets called on the carpet for it by other members of this community? I don’t understand where you’re getting this “fitting in” idea from, because your posts indicate that you think you should be exempt from this kind of commentary. Claiming special rules just for you is a far cry from trying to fit in.
I read her LJ, and it sounds like she needs some help-she sounds like she’s suffering from depression. Quitting that job would be the first step. (She sounds EXACTLY like I did when I worked at KrapMart).
She also needs to pull her bigotted head out of her ass.
techchick – I realized about 10 mins ago (after a quick Google, cause I couldn’t remember where I had read it) that it was from her LJ. I’ve reported myself to the mods for appropriate action, and I (nervously) await a reply.
IDBB, if you’re still around, I am deeply sorry for dragging your LJ in here. It was an extremely low thing to do, even if it was inadvertent. I figure you already don’t think too highly of me, and that this apology may fall on deaf ears, but I am truly sorry.
I have to laugh.
I have noticed I_Dig_Beinga_Bigot’s post lately whining about the white trash and immigrants.
I figured there must be some reason for he constant spewing. Bitches constantly about her job, her life, her prejudices.
Here is a person working for minimum wage under an immigrant, has a boyfriend with a mullet, grows weeds in her yard and calls them “flowers”, and shops in a ghetto store in a small town.
Damn, them ghettos are really spreading…used to be an urban problem.
I resisted the temptation to blast her ass since this “white trash and immigrant” thread was in GQ.
It still amazes me that after her last dissertation on bigotry she would just ramble on into GQ with the same lame ass bullshit.
Like the criminal who charges the cop, acting like a beer bottle is a pistol, trying to commit “suicide by police”, so charges I_Dig_Beinga_Bigot once more, into the breech.
So as a white trash redneck, I bid you adiue
