Random Fail: First World Problems

[Melena]

I need to see what I might be able to do to get it reduced. Already know I need to do traffic school to keep my insurance from getting fucked. Losing 20% of my take home pay on top of that is going to fucking suck.

I had an interesting day.

This very flamboyant guy came into my work and was chatting about how he was originally from the neighborhood. Started naming off all of the businesses and his memories, getting more abrasive the more he spoke. He then left the shop made how the neighborhood wasn't the "in" spot anymore. Okay, nutbag that was clearly on some uppers. I found out later that he went next door to the bistro and did the same thing, only this time he demanded to be served alcohol. They refused him because they could tell he was high. He then punched the owner in the face (a female), ripped a sign out the front window, and booked it down block.

Almost 2 hours later as I was getting off from work, I see the owner of the bistro and have a chat with her. Turns out the guy had dropped the sign off at a chocolate shop across the street along with a check for $16.95 (for what??) and she was heading over there. I stopped into the hardware store a few doors down to talk to them about what happened. They had already been informed, so I stuck around to make a purchase. As I was paying, this guy comes walking in wearing the same shirt (black EC DC done in the AC DC logo) and I thought that there was no way this could be the same guy. Then I heard his voice, same fucker except he added a do-rag and sunglasses in an attempt to hide his identity. After I told them that this was the same guy, I quickly ran across the street to the chocolate shop to inform the bistro owner that he came back. As she starts calling the police (she had called them earlier, but he was long gone by the time they arrived), he runs across the street to chat up the chocolate people. He didn't notice the bistro owner being there. I stepped out and she followed and was able to get in contact with the cops. The chocolate people told him to leave the neighborhood as he was clearly not right in the head. He went back across the street and entered the yoga studio. I spoke to the person working the cafe after he left and she told me that the guy was just ranting then left without asking for anything. He got into his Honda Accord and left the neighborhood again.

So we had his name & address, his bank credit card (because he had lost it earlier and someone had dropped it off at my work) to confirm the name, and the hardware store snapped a pic of his licence plate. He was long gone by the time the cops came back again, but now they got his info. I have no doubt that he will make a third appearance, but hopefully it will be a bit less hectic.

Sounds like a normal day in Uptown.

today is one of those days when depression is just screaming in my brain. I'm proud of the progress I've made; I'm not acting on any of it and certainly not lashing out or allowing this shit to damage my interpersonal relationships. I'm journaling, meditating, etc. doing all the good things. I'm well aware that what I'm experiencing today is a mental/emotional aberration and not a valid set of data upon which I should choose to act.


but god. fucking. damnit. would my brain please stop bitching and moaning and hating life. nothing is wrong, everything is fine, there is no reason to feel this way. but it just... won't go away. "everyone hates you, you're worthless, you're never gonna be good enough, you should just give up," etc. hearing that tape all day long is exhausting, man.


bleh. I hate this shit. at least I've learned how to handle it, so there's some small victory there.

Just give your depression a name. That helps some people.

I was with someone 5 years and went through something similar, fuck that noise. I'm sorry you had to deal with that though, she sounds like a cuntbag anyway.

[Rhyis.]

Unless you got caught diddling little children, how you gonna break up with someone you were with for 5 years on a text anyway
Dafuq is that

[dasva]

Fuck if I know. Maybe the midlifes hit. She just turned 37

Fucking work not reimbursing my expenses in a timely fashion. I have no doubt I'll get the money but its annoying. I already have another expense report ready to turn in but am still waiting on the last one I submitted in mid-April. So they haven't included it in my last 2 paychecks (with payday being today and next one being 2 weeks out).

It's not mega money but it's still like $600-1200 every expense report I turn in as I have to buy lunch every day for all the new trainees.

That's bullshit. I'd be pissed. My expenses go in on Monday and they get paid Wednesday with my check every week. I've never had to float any expenses for more than a week unless I forgot to put them in.

Saw Beast of No Nation last night. Great movie. Except I kept dreaming I was being constantly threatened and mugged by little kids afterwards lol.

Yeah, it used to be that as long as you submitted by Friday (or sometimes you could slide it through Monday), you would get in the next paycheck which processed Tuesday night to go in on Friday. Never had an issue until recently when they have suddenly started to have 1-2 paycheck lag.

I dump it all on an interest free credit card so it's not a major inconvenience to me but it still sucks as I don't like having debt set around in case I forget to pay it on time

That sucks royally dude.

Am I mistaken or was this a long distance girl where neither of you wanted to move to be with each other? Or was that another bg poster?
