The "I need to vent thread"

Grrr...I'm stuck at work and I need to vent. Why is it that when 1 thing goes wrong, then another does, and another and another! I am having the worse day and I've only been here for 2 hours. Grrrr...I hate stupid people!

I seriously hate my job so much. It's the kind of job where they don't care about their employees, and have such low expectations. They never fire anyone, or even write them up, it's so chaotic. I seriously looked this girl in the eyes today, after she was really really rude to me for no reason and said "DOn't talk to me like I'm a piece of SH*T", and what do I care, cause I'll never loose my job cause they never fire anyone.

I just hate working at a high level of quality and people who slack off like this is some high school project. Ugh.

re: The 'I need to vent thread'

Those days are the absolute worst, I went through so many at my last job. I gave up and am now back in Grad school so I can be in charge and get rid of the idiots and slackers next time. Its especially important since I was working in a particularly sensitive and needed area.
I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

Sounds like a fun job..sorry Bobby, but at least you can tell them off without having to worry that you'll be fired.

re: The 'I need to vent thread'

I know, it's totally pouring on me today! YOur posts are making me feel better. I just hate not having a job I'm not pasisonate about. I am sort of between things, working a normal job until I decide what I really want to do. I think I want to write plays but then I second guess myself, and think I'd rather direct. The job pays okay, but they are so passive aggressive here, and just have no idea how to communicate with their employees.

Can I vent? I had left the Loop and was on the Eisenhour on a way to a deposition and it was suddenly canceled. (Thank goodness for cell phones. This is after my idiot opponent was yelling at me because I would not settle.

re: The 'I need to vent thread'

That sucks Brdlwyr. I hate having to base my whole day on other people, and then having everything cancelled because of flakes. I totally understand.

Mama said there'd be days like this... she just didn't say there'd be so many of them in a row!

re: The 'I need to vent thread'

bobby.......an idea, and has always worked for me.
When someone is rude, look at them straight in the eye and say nicely....'Why do you think you can treat me so poorly" (rather than getting mad back). Getting mad back fuels their fire, but if you simply ask them why they think they can act like that; it stops them dead in their tracks, because there is no answer.
It's worth a try.....

re: The 'I need to vent thread'

Me venting....

I have been fighting a very severe cold for over a week. Many nights, I am having uncontrollable coughing fits. Lotsa congestion and achiness....and naturally, my voice is wrecked at the moment...so all the new songs that I planned on working on with my voice teacher are shelved at the moment.

Because on this, I haven't been able to work out at the gym so I feel very hate and bloated.

I planned on directing the non-musical two-character play, "The Kiss of the Spider Woman" next summer....but I have since found out that another theatre is doing the musical version, so I have to find another project to be approved by my theatre's artistic director. Before June 1.

Just found out that a friend of mine took an over-dose of crystal meth, and became paranoid and delusional. Bad hallucinations.

and I hate my job.

re: The 'I need to vent thread'

okay, so the french and spanish classes at my school just took their trips to paris/mexico. there's this one girl i have never ever gotten along with but who i have learned to be nice to. she went to mexico.

they all come back to school today, and, being friendly, i ask "kristin, how was your trip?" she commences to complain, and complain, and COMPLAIN!! they went on a 12-day trip to mexico, and she can't say a single good thing about it. she was frustrated that she couldn't find a chocolate chip cookie anywhere...excuse me?? that's a little..well, annoying to say after a trip to a different country.

i guess i'm just frustrated that she (who has never travelled anywhere except canada) can't appreciate going to a place where there is a really different culture, and can't come back realizing how lucky she is to have enough food, clean water, and money for unnecessary things. i went to mexico a few years ago, and i KNOW that's how i came back feeling.

AHH! sorry, i had to vent about that. it was driving me crazy all day.
