    I wouldn't know where to start, and once I did start I wouldn't be able to stop, so I'll just settle for saying I'm so glad it's nearly hometime! :explode:

    Mine would have to be my ever-supportive hubby as well.

    I love you. You're always there for me, and I know that even if I walked down the aisle right now, you would think I was the most beautiful woman in the world.

    BUT here's the thing - yes, I've gained 20lbs. No, working out for 3 hours a day until I pass out seven days a week isn't going to make me lose 30lbs before the wedding (trust me, the doctor said so). Yes, we eat well, but obviously not well enough. Also, if the doctor is saying I eat too much sugar (even if it's not candy or pop), then I'm eating too much sugar.

    Also, your mother is driving me insane. Yes, I've gained weight. "Eating less" isn't what the doctor told me - she actually told me I'm eating too little. Way to trigger my old Eating Disorder. "Just eat less." I used to do that; I used to eat less than 200 calories per day. Trust me. It didn't do me any good. No, sorry mother dearest, I will NOT look like your own daughter who is a size 0 without trying, or like your other two daughter-in-laws who are also quite thin with no muscle. I'm built differently and I do apologize for seducing your son with my breasts.

    ...I'm going to be staying at their house for the next couple of days, so I'm getting a little tense at what the accusations are going be after they see that I've gained weight instead of having gone in the other direction. UUUGGGHHH!!!!

    honestly nothing.... I told my co-worker who was annoying me to eff off, and get out of my office. i haven't been in public for more than 3 hours this week - once for groceries... once for some dance pictures... and an hour for the gym and the only person that pissed me off was told they pissed me off because I refuse to hold anything back :)

    I had a guy here at my job try to leave his kid with me. He comes in..demands I find his babies mother ( I work at a school, finding a single student..not easy) it took more than 10 minutes to locate her. The guy was trying to leave his kid here! I had to tell him I WAS NOT a daycare service and will not be watching his child, I work a VERY busy front desk area at a school. There is no way I could watch his little boy. He proceeded to tell me where to go. I lost it..PEOPLE are unreal!

    I teach 12 year olds. I want to gather the parents of the rude and uncontrollable kids in a room and have the parents of the good kids teach them, in the most condescending manner, what are good and bad parenting decisions. I'll eat popcorn in a corner...

    This is going to sound stupid but I realized the other day that ALL of the kids I work with who struggle at work, who are disrespectful, rude, lazy, whiny... every last one of them has bad parents. I know these kids parents. I've seen how they interact with their kids and the kids who do well, who are hard working, respectful and doing well are the kids who have good parents and the ones who struggle are the ones whose parents treat them like their best friend EVAH. With no rules and no respect for authority.

    Stupid because I should have KNOWN the problem stemmed from bad parenting. Anyway...

    I wish people knew just how horribly bad parenting will effect a child for LIFE. How hard it makes it for them when they hit the work force. How hard it makes it for them when they develop relationships. How hard it makes it for them period.

    Your kid is not your friend. Stop treating them as such and teach them a little something about respect. Ugh.

    I used to work as a teacher at a day care...although not as demanding as your job I get the gist of your pain...thank you for what you do and I will bring the popcorn:flowerforyou: :laugh:

    I'm a substitute english teacher, and all I can say is...I agree with you both!!! I've taught both 12 year olds (the worst) and kindergarten...I'd take kindergarten any day, lol. But then I would toss the 8 year olds in with you guys as well; I only substituted for them once, and in the first 15 minutes, I had a little girl take a swing at me just because I told her to sit down. Now, I do know that the mom and the dad are both heavy drug users, so I feel bad, but I ended up having to be a bad guy. =(

    My daughter's high school track team are in the WPIAL Championships tomorrow and no one in my family seems to think it is a big deal. Her dad, brother and I are going, but none of her grandparents or aunts/uncles.

    I had to ask my sister to put balloons on the mailbox for her while we are gone, regardless of how her team does, it's still a big a deal! So frustrating, if it was softball or soccer it would be different, but I guess because it's track it's not a big deal.

    My tenants.

    Their month-to-month lease explicitly states I can market the property and show it WHENEVER. No approval or confirmation necessary. So what does my tennant do? Chases out the realtor and my new potential tennants because he didn't want anyone to come by after 6pm.

    ARRRRRGH!
    Kick them to the curb! lol I would at least.
    If only it was that simple... good luck evicting anyone these days.

    To my neighbors - quit putting stuff outside that blows away and ends up in our yard.

    To WalMart worker - i know it's aggravating that I asked for help when you're wearing a "How may I help you?" vest, but how's about helping with a little giddy up?

    To my co-workers - I just started working with you last week, so I will reserve this space for when I know you better.

    To Wendy's - When I said "no tomato" i didn't mean "put tomato on it, and i'll remove it myself

    To my friend - thanks for inviting me to a baseball game last night at 10pm that is being played today at 7 (and is 1.5 hours away), i can totally rearrange my schedule in that period of time - it's not like i have a job, wife and a child to work around... oh wait.

    I would totally tell the US Embassy in my husbands country that I think they are a bunch of criminals! Long story short, they denied my stepson a visiting visa to come and spend time with his father and baby sister and myself because "he doesn't have anything that would make him go back" even though his entire family on his mom and dad's side still live there! If we did everything by the book to make sure my husband is legal here, don't you think we would do the same when it comes to my stepson??? A-holes

    I have started telling people, "I would love to help but I just have too much on my plate right not, Sorry." It works and they slowly start to leave you alone. If they continue to push I just them is that I have too many things going on right now. Then I say, "I am really sorry I would if I could but I just cant."

    To my alcoholic neighbour. Could you PLEASE tell all your alchy mates your door number. I am so sick of drunks banging on my door at all hours of the day & night asking for you. When it happens in the early hours, like it did at 2am this morning, it's bl00dy scary!:explode:
    If this carries on I'm contacting your landlord.

    I'm a supervisor at a grocery store. If I could, I would tell my whiny, lazy teenage coworkers that they need to grow up.

    They whine that they're bored, so I give them things to do.
    They whine that they don't like cleaning, so I find something else.
    They whine that I snap at them, so I snap at them more.
    They whine that they've worked soooo hard, even though they've just stood at their tills gossiping.
    They whine that they're tired after working two hours, whereas by the time they're whining to me I'm on my tenth hour of work for the day and 46th hour of work for the week (with 20 hours to go before a day off).
    They whine that I'm mean behind my back and then pretend to be sweet angels to my face.

    I just can't stand them. Babysitting in a professional environment sucks.

    This! They need to come work my job for a day. I'm a convenience store manager and in addition to running the cash register I:

    - Work 10 hour shifts
    - Order groceries
    - Stock and order cigarettes
    - Organize, stock and rotate the entire cooler
    - Organize and rotate the entire storage room
    - Put up the entire grocery order
    - Make an order for coke
    - Order liquor
    - Clean every mess made by coffee, sugar, icee, slushie, the fountain machine and anything else that leaks
    - Get cussed out because our price is .25 higher then the place down the street
    - Get cussed out because the printer jammed out side
    - Get cussed out because the ATM, soda product, grocery item or whatever is sold out
    - Get yelled at by the store owner because said product is sold out

    Among many others...

    And to all the customers that come in and see me sitting on the stool wishing they had my job... I DON'T GET A LUNCH BREAK!

    I love in laws! I like how mine keep telling me..."well you don't want to get to thin do you?" ummmmm HELLO have you seen I still have a gut, thick thighs, and bat like arms???? I don't think I am in danger of being "too thin" Plus don't hate...you are just jealous i am making the effort to change my life and you are still sitting on you *ss! :tongue:

    I soooo want to 'White Fang' my boss.

    I love this! And I'd love to do it to one of my coworkers.

    Ok call stupid...WTH is White Fang?? lmao

    It's a reference from the sitcom on Fox, "New Girl". The idea is to let go of the thing that you love. In our case, we don't love our boss or our co-workers, but we really do want to 'White Fang' them. Hulu it. Great episode.

    After I punched my boyfriend's drinking buddy in the face for trying to break us up and being an all around bad person, I'd burst his bubble and tell him that he is not God's gift to women, women are not here just to please that he is rude, ignorant and going no where in life fast. Then I'd punch him again. Argh, he urks me!

    I hope she doesn't take it too hard. People need to realize how much just showing up can mean. My dad, step mom, and grandparents didn't bother to show up my graduation from my Masters program. Some of them came when I graduated with my Bachelors and their excuse was "Well at least we came to one and whats next? Your PhD? If so, maybe we'll come to that"

    I also had to beg my mom to come watch me run my 1st 5k last weekend and to bring my son. I hate running so it was a big deal for me and I just wanted someone in my family to care a little. I promise to never do that to my son. I will always be there whether the event seems important or not. Life is about celebrating the little things!
    My daughter's high school track team are in the WPIAL Championships tomorrow and no one in my family seems to think it is a big deal. Her dad, brother and I are going, but none of her grandparents or aunts/uncles.

    I had to ask my sister to put balloons on the mailbox for her while we are gone, regardless of how her team does, it's still a big a deal! So frustrating, if it was softball or soccer it would be different, but I guess because it's track it's not a big deal.
