to be fair, HR employees are just as overworked as the rest of the working poor, and likely swamped, wouldn't you think?
As a former HR employee, I'd almost agree...

Except that this is a small company that doesn't so much have an HR department or even employee as they have an individual hiring manager trying to fill this seemingly new position.

And swamped is one thing, but a complete and utter lack of any communication is frustrating.

Doubled by how perfect this job would be for her....
 
When I order a replacement for a PC we use to scan transactions, I expect that we'll get a PC that will scan transactions. It really bugs the living hell out of me when I find out we can't, and we'll have to pay $200 an hour to have them set it up so we can. I'm too damn tired to deal with a sales rep today though.
 
First text I get from my girlfriend (who works at a vet clinic) this morning: "So we're spaying a pregnant cat today...I can feel the kittens moving around in her belly."

Next text: "Funny story...the doctor aborted the kittens, but now had a change of heart and is trying to save them."

:(

EDIT: New text from her: "Well, we're trying everything we can...they were only a few days from being born."

FUCKING IRRESPONSIBLE IDIOTS! WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU WAIT UNTIL SHE WAS ABOUT TO GIVE BIRTH TO SPAY YOUR CAT!?!?

I don't see the humor in that story at all. :|
 
Update: "Well, we're hoping hard. Because they were so close to term, we're hoping. At least they're breathing and moving right now, and they even ate a little bit."

Still wish to go and either spay/neuter their owner as well.

FAIL!

Now to go see what I can salvage.

You can't. I did the exact same thing not a weeks ago. Now, I'm pig shaved too.
You're right, there's nothing left. I was hoping there'd be maybe an eighth of an inch or so, but there wasn't even that. I had to just buzz my whole head to get it even. Oh well, it'll be back in a couple weeks.
 
I usually keep a chocolate bar or something with me for occasions such as those, Cheesy. The endorphin rush it gives me helps even out the panic attack, making it manageable. As a result, however, I've come to HATE chocolate, because I'm unconsciously associating it with the panic attacks... it just doesn't taste right anymore.
 
Thankfully for me, they're not a common occurence. I get them maybe once a year, but they still freak me out everytime. I got them a lot near the end of college when I stressing out. Luckily I've learned to recognize them and am able to do a little slow-breathing technique to calm myself down. For some reason, they always happen when I'm driving, which makes them even more scary.
 
I messaged a friend of mine the other week on Facebook ... I've mentioned him before. He's the one who was charged with Sexual Misconduct, or something like that.

Anyways. I just got a reply from his father. His sentencing wasn't mid-September like I had thought. It was last week. He's awaiting transfer from the lockup to Her Majesty's Penitentiary in the city.

Balls.

At least he's near-ish. I'm trying to figure out how to arrange visits now. I would assume his father would know. But still ...

Balls.
 
No, a family troll. She fucked everything up. I'm pretty glad I'm across the country from her right at this moment. (I'll get over it.)

I've been looking hard for a roommate for the last month now, and no one decent has been interested and/or able to come see me in person. Everyone my age wants to fucking be downtown, but I hate the college town, so I went a bit further east. I've even offered to pay more than half the rent, and now I've gone to the point of asking "responsible" smokers and people twice my age if they want to lease the extra room+bath.

It's a GREAT deal for what they're getting, and yet no one seems to be interested. Fuck.

Anyone here want to move to east Raleigh?
 
Somebody needs to re-establish a standard in television. I'm getting irritated with stuff shot in wide screen, with black bars on the top, displayed on a wide screen television that thinks it's 3:4, and adds more black bars to the sides.
 
I'm only twenty-three years old, and yet everyone I know is either getting married, having kids, or going off and having life changing adventures like Caine from Kung-fu. I feel like an old man. :(

I know the feeling. It sucks, growing up, doesn't it? But be careful or you'll get half the forum over you telling you you'red still young but your friendds are just transitioning into the next stage of whatever. Blegh.

I turn 30 this month. I live with my parents, have no job and poor health (of unknown cause). Still, I only feel like an old man because my muscles and joints ache, I can't sleep through the night, and I have memory issues. Wait, where was I going with this? No, seriously, I have no idea. There's no way saying this is going to make either you or me feel better, so what the hell did I come in here for?

:tumbleweed:
 
To rant, obviously.

As for me, for the first time in about a year or so, I'm really lonely. I've been alone for a while - living alone, with crappy hours at work, so I don't really see that much of friends and family, whatever - but I was just alone. Now I'm lonely. Whole different feeling. And how do I react? By secluding myself further -_-.

Its now been a week alone in the 'new' apartment. My girlfriend helped me find the new place, move in and we were able to spend the entire summer togeather. Last week she had to move back for school.

I have been so fucking mopey its rather pathetic, but I just dont feel like doing anything. I hate this place at times, i just keep being reminded of her.
