The Complaining and Bitching Thread

Thanks @SirLance ...thanks for the confirmation.
Case in point...the woman who stood me up Monday before last (bitching about it above...including blowout by pothole and $400 down the drain after)
...texted me this morn
"Good morning...sorry about not making it there. I got tied up at work and couldn't make it out in time"
A WEEK and a HALF later???
At the time, at the restaurant, where I offered to pay for a very nice dinner (and it was excellent...just not with her) ...No text, no call, no email...she deleted my email of last reply...and nothing since
WTF???
I'm not hurt...shit happens in dating. You dust off, try agaain
But THIS doesn't make sense to me.

2 months back...met a HOT woman at Halloween...clicked, macked on each other a bit...nice stuff.
Set a followup date...after lots of fun emails
Supposed to meet her a the bar/club we met...do some dancing...Doesn't show up, flakes. ( Itext & call to say, sup??)
Texts me an excuse...then an hour later, asks me if I'm at the bar already...text back "I said I was, back an hour ago"
then an hour later, texts me the EXACT same excuse AGAIN, verbatim, same spacing...like copy/paste!! WTF??
(actually, she did me a favor...it allowed me to kick back and watch one of the best games ever, last games of the Cubs/Indians)
THEN
Two weeks later after silence texts me...why haven't you texted or called...I liked talking with you"
WTF??

And don't even get me started what one of my co-workers did...
No kissing, no touching, always friends only from me. (nada)
Takes my arm and cuddles up to me...on a simple lunch out from work.
Asks me to have a baby with me. Uhh...not a relationship, not a date...just a straight out baby.
Calls & leaves a VM asking me to stay at my place so she can arrange her life after not hearing from her for 2 months (even at work) hiatus.
WTF?? (and no, I didn't call back...)

Am I magnet for weird and fucked up??
Is someone playing a joke?
I'm a straight-shooter, always sincere.
And yet...

NOOO...I always get the "interesting" ones.

 

They hurt me this week.
Still have a job.
Need to find another.
I know what I'm doing this week.
3000 emails to go through.
1 that doesn't have issues...with "my" communication

 

fuck those guys

Just tired...
I'm surprised I keep going, doing my thing, at times.

 

Got my ass handed to me today.
Got thrown under the bus.
Got reamed for doing the version they wanted.
Got reamed for not doing the design I recommended then got told to push otherwise.
Got reamed for doing the environment they ordered me to (despite they knowing it wouldn't work...which I told them also)
Got yelled at for having a meeting which I was ordered to have.
Got slammed for not asking for a delay despite being instructed not to.
And my lead didn't have my back, despite saying he did. (he asked me to do all the work which delayed me in finishing)

Top boss saying one thing then another.
2nd in command saying one thing then another.
Lead...don't even get me started... (passive, spineless shit)

At least these could have supplied lube beforehand.

I hope the phone interview goes well tomorrow.
This IS bullshit.
And if I could quit I would...
I need to save up 6 months of pay (fuck you money)

 

Turns out I'm not the only one getting their ass turned into ground round. (good description for chewing butts)
The mgmt must be in panic mode.
And they're taking it out on the staff.
Especially us people who they don't know what they're doing.

Doesn't matter, I'm still out of here.
When in a war zone...I get out of the target area.

And my phone interview went pretty well today. (except for the initial phone service outage...thank god they were willing to call back later)

 

Mine is already booked!

 

I'm headed to Newport Beach (road trip) for a week or two in mid-March. If weather looks iffy may end up staying in Palm Springs area instead.
