What Grinds your Gears, part 2

Here's how the situation goes:

Whenever I come back to said restaurant for school breaks or whatever, the money doesn't come in for a week. Understandable, my payroll must be a little slow.

But two weeks without pay? Now I gotta start asking questions cause my direct deposit is still active.

I need my fight money :evil:

One of my friends had a problem with the owner withholding checks at the place he used to work at. It was suspected that the owner was somehow passing on his taxes to his employees, using their checks. It's not to say that Yung's situation is the same, but it's a little suspicious if this occurs often, given the establishment's pay structure.

My friends sister. She's about 11. Once, she came over with my friend, we were all chatting then she just says,"I noticed by looking at your pants that you have a very big thing (in my country to be polite we call it a thing)!" How flattering
 
So, my entire family plays the Simpsons' Tapped Out game. (We just got my mom into it, she's level 29 while the rest of us are at level 41) My brother and I joined the Facebook group, just to get more neighbors. But my god, I have to say some of the people in this group are freaking stupid.

I get that there are some questions that literally needs some help to be answered, but some of them, you have to be kidding me. As of right now there's an event going on that has the town doing things for the Stonecutters. Throughout each day you are given several tasks to do in order to get emblems to get new characters and such. These tasks have you trying to guess what you have to do by searching throughout all of the characters you have in your town and seeing which one matches the task you need to do.

But no one wants to guess, they demand answers immediately. They even have posts where they want someone to play their game for them just so that they can get everything done and out of the way. Or, the spend all of their donuts immediately to get the good stuff first then rant about how there's nothing to do.

The whole point of this game is to take your time and do what you're being told to do without resorting to rushing things up with all of your donut currency or by hacking. (Of course, all app games has those idiots that NEEDS to hack) I don't understand why it's necessary to hack the game just to get good stuff, especially for a game like this where you're stuck having nothing to do because you spent everything.

Sometimes, it's really not that much fun to play these app games in multiplayer knowing that there are hackers out there that just ruins everything for you. It's like that in Clash of the Clans. You know you're never going to reach the top of the ranking because those who are at the top right now just hacked their way there. At least at the rate I'm going, it's a decent little clan.

But still though, hackers... you're not really that much fun to play with.
 
30 year old guys who attack other people like they are back in middle school with such insults. I guess that's how far they graduated. Lol

Well, since there's no way I'm going to vent this to anybody in real life, I'll just vent here.

This girl is really grinding my gears at the moment...

Ugh, she talks to me like I'm an idiot. I can tell that she's just being nice (because that's the way she is) but its so annoying. It's pretty clear that I'm not stupid or anything, but I admit that I was a bit of a trainwreck last year. Now she just talks to me like I'm in need of help or something and it's annoying. I'm a bit quiet irl, so it does come across as I'm awkward or something, and I admit, I look like a mess as well but it feels so patronising.

I like her a lot, too, and I just can't find it myself to snap at her, or even correct her. I find it hard enough to actually speak to her as it is, but we have mutual friends, so it's not like I can help interacting with her.

I don't really know what happened to me. I wasn't always so anxious... it just surfaced last year. Oh well.

my friend was a grade A c u next tuesday today at work, wow. she was talking shit about me right in front of me, i mean, really? we had a meeting this morning where my supervisor told everyone to leave the packer alone because we need to focus on the quality. we are not to be bothered with stuff like training. well, i kept getting bothered with training, and other questions and issues these guys who are new do not need to be taking to me and have been told where to take it. i am in the office faxing and asked politely (to my lead hand for the week) if he could make sure that these guys stop asking me stuff because i do not have time to train and it is not my responsibility to do so. my friend (should start using 'friend', really), spins her chair towards the lead and says 'these people (referring to me) who don't want to train will be the first ones to complain when we go to volvo' (volvo is our new client and both of them will be working for volvo). i raised my voice, but, not loud enough for anyone outside the office to hear, and said no, i do not have an issue with training, i have no TIME to train, and the supervisor said that no one is to bother the packer, this is why we have a lead hand. i walk out and hear her say to him something about pushing my buttons. i turn the hell back around and say to her i don't have buttons to push, the supervisor told us not to bother the packer, we do not have time to train, and it is not our responsibility. i mentioned how the lead pulled me away from packing earlier in the day and wanted me to train him how to do something i knew how to do (she also knows how to do it). she pipes up that she told him to come to me. i said (for the billionth time) i do not have time to train and we have books on how to do things, he should grab the book. she says that he needs to be trained on it and i respond with well that is not my problem (which it isn't, her and a guy who is off this week are supposed to be training him) and she yells out WELL THAT'S GREAT TEAMWORK, JADE. at that point, i was ready to beat her face in, so, i just asked where my supervisor was and walked out.

i tell my supervisor what happened. he goes and chats with them, basically tells them i am in the right, and, she then texts my supervisor on her way home that she will go to HR if i 'snap at her' one more time. LOL. i have never snapped at her before, and, i wouldn't really call it snapping this time, as i would actually say i was correcting her mistake of me not wanting to train when that was not the case at all.

hilarious how someone feels they can belittle you in front of others, but, when you have a backbone and don't let it happen, you're 'snapping' at them. maybe you should try being a better friend? yeah, probably. when she packs, she snaps at everyone who asks her a question. i don't snap at people, i just go to my lead or supervisor and tell them about the issues.
 
English is not my native language so I'll take a guess and assume that something that "grinds your gears" means stuff that annoys you or makes you mad.

In that case the politics and economy of my country grind my gears, severely...
 
my ex is honestly the biggest douchebag i have ever known in my entire life. our pets are OUR pets, yet, he takes 0 responsibility for any of them. i have all four of them, really looking for some help here, asked if he could take 2 of them, so far, not a single yes. i am going away for part of this weekend to meet my now boyfriend's parents (a REAL man, may i add) so i asked stupid ex if he could take the dogs for the weekend, which he said he is going to do, anyway, when he moves in to his new place, which is august 1. he gave me so much friggin trouble for it. WAHHHH I AM MOVING SO THERE ARE BOXES ALL OVER THE PLACE WAHHHHH. uhhh, when i was moving, there were also boxes all over, it was not an issue whatsoever. yet again, no help from that idiot, so, i have to hope my dad will do something. i prefer to just have the ex take them, or hope my dad takes them to his house, so that i don't have to chase anyone for my keys.

i just can't believe how much of a scumbag one person could be. after treating me like trash for 10 years, the least he could do is take the dogs for one weekend before he moves. all those times when he went out and i stayed home to watch them, wow, nice payback. i noticed he only got angry when i asked because he knows i am going to be with my boyfriend and he's so friggin jealous. he is 3000000 times the man that dildo could ever be.

Agreed.

The whole "walking on eggshells" and having to be overly politically-correct these days or you'll "offend" someone, pisses me off to no end.
It sucks that you can't respectfully disagree with someone who has differing views these days, because then you're labeled as a racist, bigot, sexist or prejudice.
People are so f***ing ridiculous and have their panties in bunches these days.
