... on Monday forecast predicts heavy rain and thunderstorms for Saturday, and by Friday - after a week of ugly heat - forecast says there might be a chance of some rain on Sunday night :lookingup:
Torrential downpours & first alert heat & humidity...
Would've been a great week to seed...
Last two weeks, I've been getting two to four calls a day from Marcie regarding new lower health insurance rates.
I've blocked dozens of phone numbers & visited the Do Not Call Registry more than I can stand!
^ I get a f**king phone call all the time by some robot lady saying the warrenty on my vehicle is about to expire. The only f**king vehicle I own is a riding lawnmower. Tiana has a bike and a moped.
I try to tell her-the robot lady-but she doesn't hear me-it's a robot! So I slam the phone down!
(I don't have a cellphone).
UGH! got another Marcie as I sat down to read this, then my phone company's website crashed when I tried to report it, taking TWENTY MINUTES! UGH!
Trying to deal with social workers who tell me I should be happy where I am.
When they tell me I'm not smart enough to get a job doing what I'm already doing for free, or since my stroke last year, telling me I'm not strong enough or healthy enough to earn a living wage.
To get dropped like a hot potato after trying to deal with these people for a year & a half.
And these are the kinds of people that the woke kids want to replace the police with.
when i can't find what i'm looking for at five different grocery stores.
You have machine gun poops all night, having to get up every 10 minutes practically to use the can.
Yet another desk chair bites the dust...
You just sat down & realized you left your glassed on the other side of the room...
You just sat down, commode or not, and that *&^%$#@! phone rings!
You just took a huge bite outa something, and that *&^%$#@! phone rings!
You buy something online, & what you get is different from the picture...
You purchase a service manual, and whatever it is you need to know about your model is different from the picture...

Dude, I don't care where I am or what I'm doing. I get so excited when my phone rings! Ha! The last real phone call I got was when my sister butt-dialed me on July 8.

You know I would! :smile:
Trevor, I would suggest PMing people your number or Skype profile or whatever program you care to use. If you put your number up only anyone could see it and call you. I'd be happy to spend some time chatting with you anytime.
OMG, i want to listen in on THAT convo, lol! your accents would be hysterically funny! :cheers:
I really hate it when people bang on my back porch door under the ridiculous assumption I might hear them, when there's no doorbell, & I always keep it locked because I keep stuff in there, & there's the house door between the porch door & my ears, Particularly considering I never lock the front porch door, & I went to all the trouble of installing a mechanical doorbell on the front door of of my house................
There's a dozen cozy chairs & sofas & you can't find a place to sit because NOBODY thought the accompanying coffee & end tables would be a great place to dump all their stuff!
When your smallest, most important pill skips backwards in your throat & gets caught in your sinus cavity....
When a group of teenagers starts walking down the street in a horizontal line for no reason, or when some dude seems to think he's too bad@$$ for the sidewalk, or when you're caught five or six cars behind one of those downtown bicyclists, who seems to think the rules don't apply to them, or that the whole world owes them something!
...they talk outta their ass like vomiting diarrhea... bubbling babbling bumbling...
You drive your children a mile and sit and wait for an ice cream truck you know will be passing, then spend ten bucks on three popsicles that have obviously thawed and re-frozen so many times that more of the popsicle sticks to the paper wrapping than remains to be eaten. (We should wait today and egg that guy's van.)
When you check into the hospital for the stomach flu, & they're pretty confident you're having a heart attack, no matter how many times you throw up......
And after three day of observation they can't find any signs of a heart attack, & they tell you to just take some over the counter analgesics the next time this happens, even though that was kinda the problem in the first place!
Or when you go to the doctor for an ear infection, & without even looking at you, he insists you're having a stroke, & you pretty much have to demand some decongestants because you can't breath!

Go to the office in person! Shows you have ambition. Fill out the app in the office.
Applying for a job online- you may as well work at Burger King.
I never got hired unless I stated my case in person.

Employers hate that.

And no. It doesn't mean that. If your qualified and good you will get the job. If your not-you won't. Politics are not gonna change your limitations. Unless you make it so.
Is it a job where you are required to use a computer? If not I would imagine an employer isn't going to give a damn if you are computer literate or not. If it is, well you have a problem there.

Yes, it's for a Radio Board Operator, part time, Kinda like on my last two volunteer positions...
I found out I'm connected to a few people at this place on LinkedIn, so I sent them a brief message about my trouble with the site, then mentioned my combined eleven years Board OPping & producing......
Hopefully they can either do something or forward it to the right person...
Dam. Quit blaming others for your job skills you don't have.

I ain't gonna argue on this. You are your own worst enemy.

I'm sure you have skills. Why care what RC thinks? I mean, his advice to go in in person was fine, not taking that advice is fine--I don't understand how this turned into a big fight.

Because you can't just walk into a TV or radio station these days.
They attract weirdos, so they need to keep their doors locked.
If you tell them you're there to drop off your resume, you're going to get directed to their website. I get a lot of that everywhere I go these days.

Well you shouldn't have said they were job skills I don't have, because I did it for eleven years.
I even had to show college seniors in broadcast communications how radio worked because they had no idea.
Reason being, some little smart @$$ was always getting the license top the campus station pulled, & these same little twerps would almost do the same to us every year.
I apoligize if I came off as your stupid. You are not. But blaming others for your short comings will not get you a job. You need to look in the mirror. Only you and your outlook on life can make things better,

Mellow out.
This is the second time you have called me a jerk.
I like you. I feel for you. But you p**s and moan about s**t and blame it on mental illness.
You don't seem crazy to me. You seem like your blaming bad things that happen in your life on anybody but you.
If you are mentally ill, don't think people are gonna hire you for a job. I wouldn't hire a nut. WAKE UP!
If your nuts- get help.
