    Drinking water and avoiding men.

    I find both of these things challenging.

    Yes drinking all that water can be challenging.

    A little kombucha (+ water) goes a long way.

    The latter part is harder..

    Yours too?

    Yeah, I was going to say I bet we could all share some stories and have quite the competition!

    I'd win

    Pretty sure mine would give your ex a good run for the money.. we're talking epic dumb.

    She makes rocks look smart.

    When we moved into our first place together he had to practice writing our address for two weeks.. Bricks are smarter than him.

    Mine told the rental realtor how much he hated his former landlord, called his former landlord vulgar profane names and recounted the time he played a nasty retaliatory trick on his landlord. He did this while he and I were depending on the realtor to find us a fabulous apartment and tell the owner of the unit what wonderful tenants we would be. I had to call my ex aside while he was in mid rant and slowly explain to him why spilling the beans like that to the realtor was not in our best interests.

    So I don't know who was dumber now that I think of it. Him for missing every social cue ever invented or me for moving in with him. :blush:


    In my defense I was only 17 and he was good looking :laugh: Ya live and learn

    Driving to work in a snow storm tomorrow riding a spare tire is dumb. I should have canceled work and made arrangements.

    Being sent home from work to "think about my attitude" :|

    I have a story for you:

    After university I was ecstatic to get my first job. After about... 10 or so months of being there I was extremely stressed because I was basically doing the jobs of three people and getting paid for only doing one. Around the year mark of me being there they suddenly decided that they wanted us to sign contracts and they were taking away privileges they had previously verbally agreed to with us so I was unhappy about it. I tried to speak to the higher-ups about it but they just shut me down. Then, on a Saturday I got a phone call and it was my boss. He told me that I had an attitude problem and it wasn't going to get any better and he fired me.

    I immediately went and complained about them to a professional board and I explained what they had done and they ended up getting reprimanded for it :D

    He said I had attitude so then fine, I showed him what kind of attitude I have.

    It went something like this....

    I have been doing my job for the last year well enough that management has been mentioning a supervisory role for me. last week they hired a few troglodytes and for whatever reason, it has been made my job to train them. I don't train. I've never trained. I don't know anything about training... also, it has come to my attention that these newbies share the same wage as me. A year of hard work and 2 raises, yet they share the same wage.

    Long story short... I'm doing the job of 3 people, jobs I'm not paid to do, jobs I'm not trained to do, being paid the same as those with 7 days experience, and management is scratching their heads as to where my "attitude" is coming from. So, I've been given the remainder of the day (without pay) to think about how I'd like to be a "team player".

    What a crock of *kitten*!! :angry:

    That really is.

    Are you able to set up a meeting to explain why you're so stressed?

    Oh, there was a meeting. There was a lot of angry/stern words thrown in my direction, and a lot of "yes sir, sorry sir" thrown back at them.

    Sometimes that’s all you can do. And at the end you smile and say “ *kitten* you very much”.

    Time for smack

    Knowing this area, I probably could find some. Not sure if I want to do that to myself, though. I mean, my liver is already angry at me plenty for making it constantly work for its keep. :D
