You owe me a new Diet Coke, please. That's just all I can say, other than Wow!

AGDLynn 04-23-2013 08:26 PM
Hope you make sure everyone knows that!

Please stop moving our regularly scheduled management meeting because you let your secretary schedule stuff improperly. Not all of us can or want to drop everything and adhere to your schedule.

No I'm not using money from my budget to pay for your volunteer appreciation breakfast. If you don't have any money, don't host a party. Lazy dumbass.

I am a year-long volunteer. I recognize that I'm paid (peanuts, mind you), but I am still a volunteer working 40 hour work weeks. A little bit of recognition would be nice instead of throwing me under the bus every chance you get. ARGH. Only 3 more months.

One of my fellow supervisors (there are 3 of us but one was far out of town for the week) had a death in their family. She called in upset, and I called our boss who had the day off to see if she could come in and pick up her shift (this is a retail establishment, so you can't just call off, someone has to cover for you). She told me she couldn't leave her house, and the woman who had the DIF would have to come in (or else I would have to work a double shift and another shift this morning, pretty much 24 hours straight of work). What, you ask, was so all-important that the boss had to stay home and basically force someone to come into work who should have been at home with her family?

I swear I am not making this up.
How did miss this?

I must say, I've been doing Renaissance stuff for awhile now, and there is some crossover between genres, but I still really don't "get" cosplay. I just don't.

Actually (don't kill me Jess) I think it is somehow Renaissance related, but she was going on about how her hubby is an officer and has to have an impressive costume and she can't sew. I don't care if you have Barack F'ing Obama in your house, you don't do that to another human.

LOL. There's a reason why people who are not actually rich or very good seamstresses chose to stay away from noble characters...their garb is a pain in the ass. And what's even lamer is that Pennsylvania RenFest season doesn't even start until Fall. Unless she's doing Spoutwood Faerie Fest, which wouldn't make sense either. What a sad excuse for a person. But, there are those in every crowd.

Gee, thanks.

Would have been nice if you had done it before you didn't have a choice.

Still want to leave.

You give me numerous awards, but won't employ me full time.

I can't wait until I can tell you to kiss my ass. :mad:

I have never met a more socially awkward person in my life, and I've done Quiz Bowl before. You haven't noticed how people suddenly have things to do every time you come to talk to them about some random thing that they aren't interested in? You haven't noticed how your entire row wears headphones (yet you still try to talk to them)?

You have told us how you need to 'come out' to your family about eating meat and smoking, how you dated a girl for 6 months and didn't know her name, and how you tried to pick up a bachelorette party. THESE ARE NOT APPROPRIATE WORK ENVIRONMENT TOPICS

Stop telling me I'm fantastic at my job. JUST STOP.
Stop telling me I'm the best teacher you have. JUST STOP.
Stop telling newbies to come talk to me when they have IEP questions. JUST STOP.
But, most of all, STOP TELLING ME TO WAIT "A LITTLE LONGER" FOR THAT JOB AT COUNTY OFFICE THAT I INTERVIEWED FOR 5 MONTHS AGO. If they didn't care enough to snatch me up after the interview, I am going to work elsewhere. No, I'm not going to sit around and hope for it. No, I'm not going to wait until the summer. I AM LOOKING FOR ANOTHER JOB NOW.

K.thnx.bye.

I hope that damn orange was worth it.

Yes, my entire sports staff was suspended from school during production week because they fought over an orange. No, I did not mistype, they fought over an orange.

Thanks for answering my question by not answering it. It's been increasingly obvious that you don't give a damn about our customers. This was just confirmation.

Give me this guy's email. I kinda want to send him a picture of my teats just to make his head explode.
