Rant and Rave Friday (Inspire where are you??)

is it a tradition yet? gurl i couldn't wait for you, it's just a matter of time till the tech department shuts me down.  
 

what's botherin ya'll today? okay, well, since you asked:   

1. loose (when you mean lose). 
2. not addressing the elephant in the room.  if you feel tension and there's nothing on your mind, then turn around and find out what the **** is on mine.
3. re-pressing an already lit elevator button - just, why?
4. missing dc meet n greet.  thufferin thucotash
5. hearing my co-workers chew - is it honestly that delicious?
6. inability to remember names (but i never forget a face)
7. temporary lay offs (g'head you know you wanna sing *good times*)

thread abandonment in 4.....3....2.....

1. cashiers who put my change on the counter instead of in my hand.  The same way I gave it to them.
2. interchangeable too and to.
3. Unable to take a vacation this year.
4.  Easy credit rip offs (Good times).

On the up side I'm having surgery on monday so there.

@ 1. cashiers who put my change on the counter instead of in my hand.  The same way I gave it to them.

gurl my bf's  nickname for me is corporate (as in when i get home "i'm calling the corporate office"!)  there's help for us for real.

oooooh hercaleezhercaleez, you're up on monday!!  gurl good luck are you excited??? 

Okay, I'll be the guinea pig here. 
1. hearing anyone chew. It's a gross-out to me.

2. why temporary lay offs are called "temporary"....they seldom are.

3. hypocracy

4. smiling faces who PRETEND to be your friends--my company is full of them...a.k.a: phony / plastic people

guinea pig makes me sad - who treatin you like a stephchild???  u need a hug, do i needa look for hershey?  LOL

yo dude, company laid off 30 people last friday - even though i survived the cut i still took it hard for them.

Marlo, ur funny. lol

They have been laying off people quarterly in my company for the last 5 years.  They are scheduled to lay off 4 more in my department next month. 

Awwww, no I don't need a hug, but HD does have that part covered.   

*but HD does have that part covered.*

i was offering to find her, not substitute

isn't it terrible?? see what happens when C students make it to the white house - chant with me:  stayinschool! stayinschool!   

speaking of which was somebody talking about texting the other day, something like the tween in the house made thousands of messages in a month?  -  thas rant number 2A i sent bout 7 messages yesterday (which took me most of the afternoon) i'm mad that the kids are knockin out a text every 4 minutes  but can't balance a checkbook....? (not that particular child, chirrun in general)

i know u weren't offering, sillybutt.

I got another chant: dontdodrugs!! dontdodrugs!!

maybe its me, but isn't easier to CALL someone than to text?  I can see a generation of kids with carpral tunnel (sp?) syndrome of the thumbs and the fingers.  My daughter has her dayumed Sidekick sugically attached to her..imagine my surprise when I found out me and my ex-wife actually are raising twins. 

disclaimer:  i'm already telling you in advance that this'll sound kinda dumb.  

i hate the phone.  i hate being ON the phone.  i'll write, i'll text, i'll string a note around the carrier pigeon's neck , but holding the phone to my ear.  no.  

it is easier to call but i'm planning my dude's surprise party and i had to find a way to contact his friends at work without alerting him - no identifying marks to a text message until you open it (that could just be my betamax version of a phone tho).

do ya'll have an unlimited plan? my daughter *****ally has no business having a phone has the corny ass kind (with no keyboard) so texting doesn't even apply.  lemme ask the parents a different question - is the phone more for you or for them, do you wanna keep tabs on her whereabouts or do you consider it innocent entertainment for her?

 

1. hearing anyone chew. It's a gross-out to me. I can relate to that; 20 years ago I gave up my American Express Card because one of the customer service people called me to join an additional program and he was chewing (something)...I almost flipped, called corporate office and cut up my card. Almost every month since thenI have been getting letters from them with special offers. I hate that company just because of that, I hope now they have much better customer service...I won't know because I'll NEVER deal with them again.
