And this PoS says it’s because we’re gay-friendly:
Of course, there’s also the PoSPoTUS, who blames it all on water policies…because we send water to the ocean and don’t water all the mountains… or something?
My hyperhidrosis is getting worse, and it’s all year long regardless of weather. Nothing physically wrong either, but I don’t want to go on Prempro due to the high cancer risk and my family history.
My cousin and I installed an above ground easy set pool–easy set, my ass, I call it–and it lasted just a few weeks before the inflatable ring gave in to the extreme heat and the whole thing collapsed. I ordered a metal frame pool to replace it.
My friend C. is suffering horribly from shingles. Nothing is really helping and she feels like she’s on fire–you know, kinda like California. Maybe she’s been too gay-friendly as well.
Also, my Dell all in one desktop crashes all the time regardless of browser used; even the home screen is messed up.
Eff this whole month, the climate, shingles, crappy pools, and sweating uncontrollably.
Ah, it seems that some folks just can’t act right anywhere they go. I mean, it’s bad enough that there’s no such thing as waiting in line in China or even following rules for that matter, but come on, that’s no reason to show the whole world. Interesting thing is that China has a more, shall we say, robust no travel list, which these three wonderful examples are sure to land on. It’s a no touring list and also applies inside the country: no checking into hotels, no getting onto inter-city buses or inter-city trains. I am curious though as to how the KNP will proceed since one of the men was stomping on a woman’s head. Ah, that’ll be fun if they get prosecuted: no bribing, no “I’m an important person in the Party”, none of the usual ways of avoiding justice “back home”.
When my wife and I went to Ukraine to adopt our oldest son, we had to take $20k in cash with us. We decided to declare it when we entered the country because we didn’t want to be accused of smuggling and have it taken. The customs agent demanded to see it and when we showed him I thought he was going to have a stroke. Between the stresses of adopting and becoming parents for the first time and carrying around that cash, I think I aged 20 years in a month.
I have a job opening. It’s entry-level. The pay and hours are so-so, not great but not terrible.Benefits are good. Working conditions are decent and co-workers are a good crew. There are some more challenging and better-paying jobs also here, but no openings for those right now. And since this is a production operation, I need people in all positions and I very much appreciate workers who care about their job and make the effort to do it right; and I will promote the careers of those who do so.
So, Mr. New Hire Right Out of College, on your third day of work in your first real job, don’t go around telling people that the entry-level job is beneath you and that I’d better not make you work the closing shift and that you really just wanted the more challenging job and you are not intetested in actually learning or doing the job we hired you for. You know, the one you applied for. That you were told about the hours, the salary and the duties in the interview and you agreed to do.
Now you don’t have any job. Learn something from that.
My 10-year-old autistic son who can’t abide eye drops, let alone needles, is exhibiting optic nerve pallor and needs an immediate MRI. I am terrified and Dr. Google is not helping. Somebody help me.
Ain’t that book thing speshul? I hate the college book racket with a white hot fury. We have paid for one book the lil’wrekker never got, she got a code and used the online version. Will they reimburse? Hell no.
After my urge to grab him the shoulders and shake him died down, I had fantasies of asking him why he didn’t care or hated certain groups of people, but I knew it’d be futile. Quite frustrating.
I feel your pain on this one for sure. Not 7 calls that close together, but at least a couple times a day, I get calls from someone want to help me improve my credit. Always from a different number. I generally don’t answer, but I can get the gist of it from voice mail. Oh, and my credit is just fine.
I’ve started tracking down the companies that sell the numbers to the scammers and reporting them there. I got at least ONE scammer banned from a reseller and am hoping to add more to the list.
So one of my Facebook friends is an online friend I made about twenty years ago. After the online forum we met on sort of went away, we’ve chatted occasionally, over email, messaging, and on the phone… very occasionally. Now all of the sudden I’ve seen multiple posts on Facebook tagging him with messages like “RIP” and “I miss you”…
So there’s the guilt of not having said and done more with him with the awkwardness of not knowing what happened and not knowing who to ask all dropped out of the clear blue on a Monday morning. He was barely 40. I’m still kind of dizzy, especially since I have no idea how I “should” be feeling, given our level of general contact and such. I mean, if he were closer or we were more distant, I’d kind of know, but it’s in this gray zone that makes the awkwardness even worse…
A mother (always a woman) will say this to me at work every so often. For kids who are good, I smile and talk to them. Kids who run around screaming, etc, I ignore, even if they speak to me. Their moms act all offended that I’m ignoring their brat.
My reply is always, “Actually, I love my kids more than life itself. But your children? No, I honestly do not like them”.
Somebody in Russia keeps trying to hack my Origin account, so far they have not succeeded, but they have succeeded in getting Origin to send me emails in Russian.
The air outside here in Eastern WA looks and feels like the Los Angeles air circa 1960 due to all of the fires. My lungs haven’t felt this crappy since I quit smoking 9 years ago. “Every Little Wheeze Seems to Whisper Disease.”
So I’ve had contractors in the house all day. I’ve been upstairs the whole time except for an hour when I had to take my dog to the vet. I come back and open the fridge and realize there are 2 beers missing. Found an empty in the garbage. We recycle so I know it wasn’t just losing track. I talked to the head guy and he claims they’ve been down in the basement the whole time. I’m not sure what to say at this point. Kind of stunned honestly.

The head guy probably doesn’t know one of his workers is swiping stuff. My opinion is, if they will steal a beer they’ll probably steal anything. Fire them and call the lisc.people for their trade.
Seriously though, what makes people think that it’s ok to bring squalling little disease vectors into an office environment? This is not a daycare. We do not have a daycare on site. One side of the administrative building is engineering, the other side is customer service/purchasing/projects. As far as I can tell, neither side likes it when an ear-piercing wail splits through the normal office banter. So imagine my surprise when the grandmother of one of these noisy little bundles glared at me when I closed my door after her precious little heaven-sent grandbaby had a full-blown tantrum in front of my department’s printers!
