My last vanilla job is trolling. I thought they fired me a couple weeks ago. They sent me multiple emails that I was being terminated since then but then I got an email at 3am today that I'm going to be fired. Now they sent an email from HR to my personal email account saying that they expect me to return to work today. Um? I've been gone for a couple weeks now. I'm heading out the door soon to go on vacation anyways.

LOL I'd honestly try to get a refund. That has happened to me everytime i've had a food delivery & somehow at each place I've ordered from they mess it up so I call, bitch & get a refund even though I enjoyed the meal LOL
.
LOL. I made a point of asking for something off, his response was to staple coupons to my order bag.
Last time I got a full credit, I had already taken it home tho.

Anyway, today's annoyances: Walmart had 0 plant pots, no witch hazel, & very limited selection of undies.
Nevertheless, I managed to spend 72.00. I did get a mattress pad & cover, a couple food items & my hair dye.
Went to home depot for the pots.

Now, my neighbor (in the little house behind me) was/is has been screaming at her man, & working on the old POS pool,. She's on like the 3rd pump, however many hoses, 2nd cover, (I think it's leaking too) water use, etc.
There was a nice 10' inflatable at Aldi's for the same price, [I]new[/I. ] But hey, wh/ev.

She'll have her gang of relatives here, I dread the weekends, forget about the 4th, m80's will be going off directly outside my window.

Last weekend they were outside late, as I stepped out on my porch I smelled strong, stinky, skunkweed pot.

Which, BTW, is NOT legal in our town, altho it is in the state

Soon to be Ex-asshole saying "You just can't wear a septum ring out in public, but when you are single you can."
No asshole, I can wear whatever the hell I want because it is my body and me having a random thought to put a retainer (That is invisible) in to keep the hole open, doesn't incline for you to be a controlling piece of shit.
This is one of a huge list of reasons why we are separated, but my response to him was "Well you can control the next woman if you ever meet her, but don't be surprised if she calls you out."

He then went into a under breath rant about how he is not controlling..yeah..sure.. :sarcastic
That he is just looking out for their image and how I am going to revert to being a goth chick. (Which I never was)
Simply because I wore gauges and my makeup was off toned. Judgmental, controlling prick..

So, I had the opportunity to see a 90 ounce bottle of Palmolive dish soap blow up. Which, it was one of those things where you see it about to happen and you know you should get out, but you can’t leave because it seems so fascinating. So now everything - I mean EVERYTHING - smells like Palmolive now.

Finding a vanilla job is annoying. I had a company schedule a interview with me. They called really early and missed the call and I called them back. They made me reschedule. I did the interview yesterday it went and they booked a second interview for today. They sent a personality quiz which I did then they ask to do a computer check. The job sends you computer so I declined the check and right away got a text saying thanks for your time. So fucking annoying.

Lol Reminds me of this one vanilla job interview I attended really crack ass early in the morning.
The manager completely forgot they had an interview with me at a scheduled time and proceeded to act like we never had one.
Claimed I was at the wrong location. Showed the email of her asking for an interview with the scheduled time and location, as well her the number coming from the exact store. She then stared at me pigeon faced.
She did a half ass, shit, unprofessional interview, with no solid foundation, just some quick (Okay I want to go back to sleep in my office, leave already) questions. Looked like she had just woke up from a nap in the back.
Took her employees several times to get her from the office, standing there incredibly embarrassed by her behavior. She came out with her hair a complete mess and press marks on her cheek from laying her face against the desk. Could tell they absolutely loathed her as a manager, making faces at her from behind.

Most vanilla managers are deranged.

If I gotta go through ridiculous hoops to get a job then fuck that. They can go find some schmuck who is willing to be a boot licker just to feed a managers fragile ego.

And most the times these Hiring shenanigans be for the entry level positions which is laughable. Like “bitch you ain’t even paying me enough to deal with your shit so I’ve changed my kind about applying to this piddly job”

Even worse is when people don’t have a mask AND run up on you.

This has happened to me three times in public.

Girl it took everything I had not to violently shove this elderly bitch.....yes an elderly heaux for running up into my personal space and her monkey ass had no mask on. I assume she had corona so I was ready to fight her.

I’ve been the bigger person each time. But honestly I’ve lost my patience and have had the last straw

Doing laundry on Sundays for the kids drives me nuts. I always do it first thing in the morning to get it out of the way. I make them change out of their pajamas so I can wash them. They literally only wear the new clothes for 2-3 hours while I'm at the laundromat, and then the second I get home, they get in the shower, and then absolutely refuse to put their "dirty" clothes back on.

These are the same motherfuckers that will get dirt and food and who-knows-what-else on their clothes allll day long, and then fight to the death at the end of the night about getting out of their actually filthy clothes and into clean pajamas. But on Sundays, oh nooooo, can't put on clothes that were only worn for a couple of hours, just because this time, it's post-shower... -_-

Ya'll know how in Coven of American Horror Story, Hell is individual to the person? It's just being stuck in a constant, eternal loop of the worst scenario you could imagine being in. I think of that scene every single day that I'm at Amazon. Because that would be my hell. Wandering an Amazon warehouse for all of eternity.

I hate my mother, the way she is. She goes on about her new husband, positively, while I'm rolling my eyes. And she stares, glares or scowls at me when I share with her something good or accomplished. I swear I can attend a top school and she'll glare at it or dismiss it (and maybe because I didn't go to her small alumni). I can't share with her because she makes FEEL like shit.


My mom does the same shit *eyeroll*
I think we have narcissistic mothers TBH
I stopped calling mine as much when I realized she doesn't seem to give a shit about anything goin on in my life. Take for example 2 weeks ago when she called. Went on about her lavish pool they had put in bc of the virus & how my sister came over suntanned & they had a cookout. She knew I was on my way to a hotel bc I have nowhere else to go right now & she didn't even invite me over! Bitch! So selfish & entitled.

My pissy annoyance is I hate how much I'm spending on food right now bc of this hotel living. They have a fridge in here but in order to microwave anything or cook something , I'd have to use the communal kitchen & I'm not interested in doing that right now esp around other ppl! ugh :(
I'm loving the privacy here but the eating situation sucks. I get Doordash but that adds up bc of the tipping & other fees. Besides, I hate microwaved food (t.v dinners) bleh. Think I'm gonna move into an airbnb situation after this week.

A seller on eBay is pissing me off. I purchased something from them on June 12th. I've checked tracking and ever since June 16th, tracking information has said,"Shipping label created. USPS awaiting item." I was being patient and waited until Friday to message the seller about it. The seller responded right away that he was going to the post office to see what was going on with the package. He sent another message that he talked to the postmaster and they said my item was on the way. I checked tracking and it still shows as the same crap of "Shipping label created. USPS awaiting item". I have a feeling that this seller either didn't ship the item out or it got lost but if that's the case, then he should refund me immediately. I'm annoyed that eBay has a 7 day waiting period before they'll intervene and take action. Also, I wish that I was back up north at my grandma's cabin.

Yes, that kid-logic gets me sometimes lol

What I've discovered that's really funny though, is that toward the end of the night, if the 4-y/o doesn't want to do something (eat her dinner/get her pajamas on), if we take away literally all other options for doing anything and make her either do what she needs to do or just sit there staring at the wall, whining, she will usually opt to just lie down at some point and fall asleep rather than just doing the thing. Which is honestly fine with me, because that means she's asleep by 8pm instead of fighting about bedtime at 10pm.

Speaking of this I miss cooking for kids. Because-

Yesterday my boyfriend didn't believe I cooked his breakfast eggs all the way through and I had to show him (how the yolk was cooked, the bottom half of the egg was carmelized, etc.) The older men get the more they revert to annoying childlike quirks. No wonder his ex wife got sick of him lol.......YEP I was legit petty annoyed.

And my mother thinks I'm immature because I'm affectionate and I like to embrace and laugh.

I'm trying to have a relationship with her.

But when she's dismissive of what is good / accomplished and pays more attention to negative stuff and I tell her that makes me feel like crap, with her and being with her and I can't share with her she gets upset, defensive and saying that how did I treat you like crap I did this for you and this and her new husband is interfering on her side.

Relative is pissed because I turned down an invitation to attend a 4th of July party/get together. (Which they claimed was mandatory) ::)
Gave me shit when I told them I had to work (Not everyone gets to take 4th of July off.) My hours got increased this month, so I am strapped.
They gave me a long ass rant about how Covid-19 is a hoax, how I'm not being part of the family. (Sure as hell don't act like family)

Told them I respect their views on Covid-19 however, I am equally entitled to my own personal views and believe it is high risk.
Plus they are always first to get sick and some of them don't believe in washing their hands or covering their mouths.
One relative even licks their fingers when preparing people's food. :yuck: (Always make my own plate for this reason)

My neighbor across the street that my oldest daughter refers to as The Butt Lady. She spends hours outside every day, bent over with her butt in the air, in doggystyle position picking at the ground on her front yard. She always wears crap with her ass crack or damn near her entire ass showing(hence why she's The Butt Lady). She doesn't even have any grass so it's a total mystery what she's really doing(picking up bugs, real or imaginary?), besides trying to attract attention to herself. I was out there cutting the grass and she turned towards me and watched me the entire time. When BD came outside to talk to me, she went back to putting her ass in the air. I think maybe she has a crush on him. He think it's funny and laughs about it whenever she's outside, saying that it's comical that she hangs out outside showing off her butt while pretending to be busy doing yard work, but I find it annoying.

I asked the supervisor of my last vanilla job where to return my equipment to since I'm no longer working for them. I don't want to be charged for a computer, keyboard, mouse, phone, etc. It's the company's property so I want to send it back. Instead the dude wants to have a meeting with me to talk about coming back to work, which makes no sense. I've already got in trouble for hanging up on rude customers, customers hearing the baby in the background, and missing days due to being overwhelmed by having to care for the baby while also caring for BD when he came home and having to keep walking away and missing calls because of being everyone's caregiver here. They've sent countless emails that I was being fired. I had had enough that day when I hung up on that rude lady, almost a month ago. I didn't work again since then. I don't get it. Why continue to stay in contact with a fired employee and ask me to come back?

My longtime Facebook friend just butt dialed me I think.

The phone only rang for like half a second.

I want to call him back but it’s like if he just hung up that quick I guess he didn’t want to talk.

Oh well I’m not going to act thirsty and just talk to him another time.

BD insists on keeping his loud as heck ringer on, despite multiple out of state scam numbers, all starting with area code 812 keep calling him. I have been trying to get the baby to nap for the past 3 hours and every time I lay her down, there goes his phone. I answered it once and it was a robotic voice that claimed to be Apple calling about a hacked device, before telling me to please hold, the phone ringing, and someone with a heavy foreign accent answering. I hung up, took his phone and blocked all the ones that called but they just called from more numbers using the 812 area code. So irritating!

OMG...I got the same call today! Except with mine it was an 800 number and when I called back (which I mostly did to check if was even real, as I was suspecting a scam) it connected to the actual Apple customer service line!

Make sure it’s not a scam.

Is it possible he actually reported his phone hacked recently but forgot? I know there are a lot of scams going around but sometimes people are on such heightened alert (as the should be) they inadvertently disregarded something legit as a scam. Ex. Is when people trashed their stimulus debit card because they thought it was scam mail.

If you’re certain it’s a scam and he didn’t ask for tech support to call him then......

Dont just hang up or yes they’ll keep calling back.

You have to say “don’t call this number anymore”.

But before you do this, You should get as much information about the caller so you can report them to FTC if they keep calling after you told them not to call because that’s against the law

So sick of these asshats not wearing a mask coming into the hotel (where it clearly states "do not enter without a face covering) and then I try to stay away from them & of course they wanna get closer ugh! Had an older lady the other day get all bitchy on me in hallway as I passed her. I had my mask on & was trying to let her pass first (being nice & courteous) and she pulls her mask off & exhales as she walks closer to me & says to me "wow, you don't need to be staying in a hotel if you gonna act like that."

It took everything in me not to lash out on her dumb ass! People are so stupid when it comes to a public health crisis like this! Why be so dam passive aggressive?! Don't wanna wear a fuckin mask? stay the fuck in your dam room, bitch. Ugh!

I'm out of here on Wed yay :)

^ i agree it’s like I really don’t care if you don’t want to wear a mask and want to infect yourself but if you run up on me in my 6ft unmasked .... prepared to get checked real quick

They got a hotline here where you can report businesses who don’t notify n enforce of mandatory mask orders.

Unfortunately I’ve seen videos of entitled adult brats acting like plum fools when asked to put a mask on or leave.

I may just call it to after i check out of here. I saw the clerk at the desk looking at them as they walked in & she looked concerned but I don't think she did anything about it. Thats not the first time I"ve seen that clown without a mask on in here. To make matters worse the guy in the room nxt door to me has been coughing a bit (despite he's a smoker) but still. I hope I'm safe from his shit, I haven't been around him thankfully, I don't even know what he looks like. All I know is I wear my mask before I step out into that hallway & my sunglasses and hope for the best.

What has become so annoying to me is have to learn so many different cameras. And editing software. Like I'm really sick of shit changing up just as soon as I learn to use it properly. Technology drains my energy in this way. Part of it has to do with my anxiety about it. But part of it is I feel like I've had so many different cameras, and cellphones, to learn. And laptops/computers too. It just never ends. And never seems to go smoothly which triggers my anxiety lol. But it's related to my income, so at this point it's my attitude that's getting in the way.

So, now my neighbor (in the little house behind me) is [email protected], Idk why.
It seemed like she got in a really bad argument w/her daughter, then the pool she had completely broke, after she spent a lot on it (covers, pumps, patches etc). None of which have anything to do with me.
Her grandson lives upstairs, Idk if hes pissed as well, they all side w/ea. other.

Whatever, I hear screaming now at her man, but that's nothing new.

I just hope she doesn't fuck w/my plants.

I told my friend (his neighbors house got broken into) about simplisafe.com, they have security cams/systems that just plug in

My professor is sucking so bad, but its cause everything is online now. My therapist receptionist overcharged me, didn’t charge the right card, and she doesn’t e-mail me back promptly. Again, I’m trying to not be a bitch because who fucking knows-maybe her parents are elderly or maybe she’s immunocompromised.I’m getting it at a discount, so I can’t complain too much. I’ll get everything taken care of and I’ll get an A in my class. Shit is just so stressful.

Because of Covid-19 people are stressed and not their higher selves, so I’m just rolling with the punches rather than sweating the small stuff.

I feel so stupid. I had a half-day at work yesterday, so decided to make it up by Uber-ing. I made damn good money for only 5 hours. Near the end, I got a call from "Uber," claiming they needed to verify it was really me out driving because there's been a lot of people letting their friends and family use their accounts. Uber does a massive amount of verification shit when you're driving, so this honestly didn't strike me as weird. We went through this entire, professional-sounding phone call, where they said they would reimburse me for my time.

I had questions in my head as it was happening. I KNEW something didn't seem right with it, but it all sounded so much like an actual interaction with Uber.

It was a scam. They hacked my account and stole over $100 from the earnings I made yesterday. Honestly, if they hadn't been impatient and waited for me to go out all day today, they could have taken a lot more. I only realized it because I looked at my app this morning and saw that my available "cash out" balance was $100 lower than it should have been. That's when it all clicked. I should have questioned it while it was happening - then I probably would have heard the guy flounder for an answer and it would have clicked sooner. I should have hung up and called the Uber support number myself. I worked really hard for that money yesterday, and I feel so dumb that I fell for this.

And I'm pissed at Uber. I googled it, and this has been happening all over, and Uber and Lyft are both aware of this scam. Why didn't they send out an email about it??

I loathe the idiotic male trolls who post their mansplanations, their gaslighting, their arguments with women in a site mainly for women in the industry, their dumbass questions, their misinformation and lies, their covert passive aggressive comments, their sociopathic manipulations, etc.

A bunch of weak bitches with zero home training and untreated mental deficits

The ignore feature is not good enough. It needs to be a BLOCK feature and trolls shouldn’t be allowed to quote people.

I had something similar.

i subscribe to a stock alert service which is led by a group of investors who are pretty successful. They also have training sites/courses.

so I post my results on Twitter account of one of the investors. Next thing I know the “investor” followed me back and started asking me how I was doing in my investing journey (red flag #1 no person with tons of customers is not going to PM all their customers 1-on-1).

Then he’s promising to show me the ropes and help me make money.

But first he convinces me to get a training course. I was already going to buy a training course so I’m thinking okay I need to learn from the best. He gives me the website, tells me to “register” (which includes putting in my data plus my drivers license).

I do all this because I’m thinking “wow this investor is really trying to help and he’s successful so I’m just going to do the steps he recommends”

Then he’s like how much you want to start investing with so Im like $500. He said I have to PayPal or wire the money so it shows up faster and I can start right away.

I go get a PayPal card.

But something just didn’t seem right because he keeps asking me “hey are you still there” whenever I took breaks from being online and then saying I could pay with bitcoin.

Im thinking why is this mf rushing me to pay and not just pay but pay with these scammy methods. Any successful investor with tons of customers would not care if I paid or not cause they have more customers lined up. So red flags Really started coming up.

I had some down time so I started thinking n researching to find reviews on this course I was about to buy.

what i found was this “investor” had impersonated the real investors Twitter account, created a clone website with the sole purpose of scamming unsuspecting people getting started on stock market investing.

Thankfully I realized it was a scam before I gave my hard earned money but not until after I unwittingly gave them my name, address, phone number and drivers license.

I felt so dumb but these scammers now are so clever and cunning and deceptive they can easily convince people their scam is real and come off like they’re trying to help.

the psychopaths are out in full effect trying to easily take from other people what they’ve worked hard for.

I reported that fake ass con artist website to the FTC Internet Crimes Unit and I was pissed the investing site wasn’t warning their new members to be cautious of scams on Twitter. I’ll bet those scammers have tricked hundreds of new members not just me and they should be more aggressive with notifying and warning people
