Random Rants Post
Who wants to just btch about something that has been bothering them?
Re: Random Rants Post
I'm sort of ticked off at my oldest sister for being a moron. She left her job and moved to NC because her fiance got offered a decent job there. OK no problems there because if my H really wanted a job in another state I would probably move with him. However she has decided not to work now.
That wouldn't be a problem either except they are in soooo much debt. She also wants to buy a house next year. Her reason for not working is simply that she doesn't think she is a 9-5 person. She wants to start her own business. Except she has NO clue what to do.
He tried to start his business back in Mass. where they moved from and it didn't go so well at all. He is getting bought out by the other people he started it with and instead of saving this money my sister is going to use it all to start her random business.
I just don't understand how she can be 32 and have no concept of good financial planning. They are just spending so much right now and putting everything on credit when they really can't afford to do it. I just don't understand and can't get her to understand about planning for the future.
She also tells me that I'm to much of a suburb lover to understand. She is completely at a loss why I enjoy living in the suburbs with a yard in a housing development.
I'll stick with my usual rant- work. Clearly I recognize that I work with complete morons and sometimes my job is really downright humorous. However in the past 5 months or so it hasn't really been funny at all. One of our sister sites in New Jersey is in the process of closing which is a very bad sign. My office and the NJ office have been the cornerstone of the entire company's financial stability.
People have gone MIA recently including my direct boss who has now been out for 5 months. They have not replaced him permanently nor temporarily. I have no one at all supervising me. They are not replacing any of the staff that have left over the summer. No one seems to care at all that the place is careening out of control. I am wondering if we are eventually closing and that is why is there is a general sense of indifference about everything. Honestly, I effing hate it right now more so than I have ever hated it before probably. It is so surreal....not in a good way at all.
I have a couple...
It annoys me that I always get a feeling from my MIL that I'm "not good enough" for her son. She is always nice to my face and she's never come right out and said anything to me, but I get a strong vibe from her and I hear about little comments that she makes here and there. It drives me insane that I always feel like she is sticking up for my H's ex (his son's mother) who is nothing but a low life, skanky, mentally insane, drug addict.
We probably won't be getting our wedding album and it's probably my fault because I waited until April (5 months after the wedding) to contact our photog about it. When I emailed him about it he replied "...there never was price or size you decided on" and then when I wrote back and reminded him that yeah, it was on our contract, I never heard back from him again. Now he's mysteriously "in the hospital" and has been for "a couple months" according to "his brother" who answered his cell phone. And emails are bouncing back because his inbox is full. If he really is in the hospital, I truly feel bad for him but I have a hard time believing it since I feel like he's been intentionally not responding to me since the end of April.
