I will never, ever, as long as I live support another union. Money grubbing life destroying fuckheads.
Short version is:
Had a construction company. Believed in unions, so we made sure to be a union contractor. Got fucked around by the general contractors we worked for, business ate it, and we lost everything. House, cars, everything. Got no help from the union recovering moneys owed to us. We still owed dues, but have not been able to pay anything to the union since we went out of business. Not only that, but husband hasn’t been able to find a job, so our income has consisted of mostly my unemployment…which is next to nothing.
I was about to register for the fall semester at school, and come to find out that the union has put a lien on our personal account, and (imo) STOLE what few measly dollars we had in the interest of satisfying a debt we had to put off paying while we tried to do stuff like, y’know FEED ourselves.
Rotten motherfuckers. They are aware of our situation. Nobody at that office is going to feel it if they don’t see our $9k today, yet they are hellbent on making sure they get it piece by piece, dollar by dollar before we can keep ourselves afloat with it.
I’m wishing things a lot worse than death on the people involved in this transaction.
Now what? Live better/Work union, my fat white ass.
Why the fuck is my Earthlink DSL connection suddenly so slow??
EIGHT TIMES I’ve switched the modem off and on again and EVERY MOTHERFUCKING TIME I get connection speeds in the 20 - 30 kb/sec range!
SHITFUCK!!
BBC television news,your audience is not made up exclusively of broody female hypochondriacs who are obsessed by children.
Also early morning news watched by the not totally awake about to go to work is not the best place to have over long “couch” interviews with ordinary members of the public with such fascinating experiences as their (tongue tied )child stopped sneezing when they wore a different coloured jumper.
Give us a fucking break for fuck sakes and show us some interesting,cutting edge news,preferably something that didn’t happen in suburban U.K.
Thirty seconds on a major offensive in Afghan,five minutes on women who eat parsley with too much fucking salt might well develop high blood pressure as demonstrated by a study on two lab rats who were force fed five pounds of salt and a parsley leaf but it hasen’t actually been subjected to peer review and we won’t actually mention that in the item.
Oh and one of the producers is most definitely NOT a hypochondriac or broody.
Honest…
To every supermarket/ discount store cashier:
I am so sorry to inconvenience you by bringing in my own canvas bags instead of using your flimsy plastic ones. :rolleyes::rolleyes: I realize by the way you drop all my items that it slows you down – even if I have told you to just hand me the items and I will bag them myself.
But for the love of Saint Swivven, why do you then ask me if I want to purchase the flimsy pseudo cloth bag your own store sells to avoid giving out plastic bags for free?!?
Silly consumer! You’re not supposed to remember to bring them back to the store and USE them. You’re just supposed to BUY them!
-kaylasdad99, proud* owner of six of those bags, from three different stores.
*Yes, I said “proud,” and I’m stickin’ to it.
Where’s the sobbing-quietly-in-a-corner smiley?
Fucking little bitch.
That’s what my mother called me when she thought I wasn’t listening.
Apparently she was angry with me because I wasn’t showing her enough respect.
How much respect does it show to call your daughter a fucking little bitch, I wonder?
Underline mine. My 69yo mother wishes to thank you for the compliment. I wish to request your help holding her down while I reduce her 6 bags or suitcases, 2 normal-sized pillows, a body-length pillow and a minipillow to one suitcase and one large canvas handbag (no large pillows anywhere, only the mini).
OK, so that’s for traveling by car or train. Neither my Yaris hutchback nor Renfe’s trains are designed for people who think you need six suitcases for a 4-day weekend, though.
Just saw this…Anne see my post 157…preach it! I finally over jet lag two weeks on. I repeat the same trip in 6 weeks.:eek:
I’ve known my mother to travel with her own towel sets and sheets…though this was due to the fact that the hotel where we were staying used Tide, which causes Mom’s skin to break out. We were traveling by Chevy Suburban at the time.
I can’t get over how much food my mother packs to go on vacation. You’re familiar with those big canvas “ice totes” from L.L. Bean? She typically carries at about three of those loaded with snacks, cereal, and soft drinks. I understand having things for the road, but we never use the food we bring once we arrive. We’re always near a grocery store; in fact, stopping at the local grocery store to pick up regional goodies is always on our vacation list.
