Random Fail: First World Problems

[Yuri-G]

Sent a pair of emails to my team lead and her boss a few weeks ago asking for official verbiage regarding a new project for when people inevitably email me asking about it, specifically asking for what I'm not supposed to share. They all went unanswered. This morning someone asked me about the project, I responded with some barebones stuff, and my team lead immediately jumps on me asking who gave me permission to spread that information.

I am so done with this week.

the more I see who gets promoted in corporations, the more I want to run my own damn business

I had also asked them to have the cleaning crew do my room floors if they came by while I was on vacation. That didn't get done. :/

I would think the intersection between the venn diagram of people who have to get a place with roommates and people who can afford cleanings crews would be pretty small, so congratulations on making the cut.

And really, who has a cleaning crew, anyways? Be like the rest of white america and have your place cleaned by one self-employed middle-aged latina woman.

[Airenn]

They pay for it and it's a woman (latina yes) and a guy. I think the guy has some kinda disorder. But they clean and are nice. They are the extent of 'the crew,' lol.

I never thought I would see my dad in this condition , a sheer shell of who he was , and my stubborn pride keeping me away all these years. Today has been so fucking hard , even with the broken relationship we had I still had hoped someday things would get better , now it's too late.

I've worked hospice and in nursing homes and even lost people but it's never the same when it's your own family. I regret not telling my dad I loved him before now when he may not even know I was there or who I am. As much as I feel like I shouldn't care due to many years of struggles , I can't even remember that now all I see is the person I used to know. That's what I'm trying to remember now.

He could really go at anytime but as selfish as it sounds I hope it's sooner than later because I have limited time here in Florida.

The only positive to come if this is it's made me reconnect with my oldest sister who originally texted me Monday. I always swore I wouldn't care but fuck this sucks.

[BerenTebogo]

Sorry to hear

[Myrrh_Quetz]

Well, I....uh....I'm having some rejection. Its been a really stressful week. They're doing the basic quick measures and we're hopeful that it'll calm my lungs back down but since this hasn't happened in 5 years, my stupid brain is freaking out.

Don't care if anyone reads this. Just needed to vent as I've been hiding it from the Wife till its certain one way or other.


I'm....I'm, just scared. The entire week has been flash backs to me being on Oxygen, and coughing....


fuck

Hey fucktard. Having a wife means you have someone to talk to about the difficult things so you don't have to vent to a videogame forum. You're also doing her a massive disservice by not telling her. Go and talk to her.

Seriously, this. The celebration sex if it's nothing should be amazing, and if it actually *is* something serious, she needs to be able to be there with you, and you for her. This isn't *your* problem, it's *both* your problem. She has a right to know. Yesterday.

I just have to echo this because it can't be said enough. It's being downright selfish let alone wrong to hide this from her for a second. Do you think she didn't know the reality of the situation before regardless of the good/bad ?

I also speak from personal experience as I grew up in a broken household emotionally and thought it was okay for years to hide things if it didn't seem to affect anyone else.
Don't be an idiot like me, go talk to her and more importantly admit you actually held this back because lying about it or anything for any period of time will just make things worse over time.

that's why.

Myrrh, talk to your wife and I hope it gets better. I shit on you a lot but not when it comes to you actually having physical problems. I really hope this doesn't become serious.

Friggin assholes. Deciding I need to do more work to watch my shows

[Myrrh_Quetz]

I ended up telling her this morning. I'm not good at keeping shit secret for long. Ill really find out more after a few days of super high dose steroids.


And not telling her wasn't about wanting to hide it from her. It was wanting to not admit it to myself. It's easier to pretend nothing is wrong when only you know. I'm not saying it's a smart way of thinking. I'm just saying, the last 5 years has been great. Admitting to her that I'm in rejection is admitting to myself that it could end. I talk about rejection a lot but as long as I'm breathing normally. It's just old memories.

Walmart, I think you need to rethink clearance prices https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...b6e3fcb0de.jpg

I was alone when my dad passed away today. I'm the youngest at 37 and somehow imagined it would be my oldest sister making the calls.

I had to call my sister who was exhausted at the hotel to tell her after being disconnected 3 times. I called my second oldest sister in Chicago just over an hour after she finally was able to reach us after days of trying.

I just got back from a long drive to the beach after I lost it at his bedside. This was harder than losing my mom who I was by far closest to.

[Aksannyi]

I'm sorry. I haven't lost a parent so I cannot begin to imagine how you feel but my thoughts and condolences are with you.

[Airenn]

Same, Ast. I wish I could give you hugs. I'm so sorry.

[Astylla]

Same, Ast. I wish I could give you hugs. I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry. I haven't lost a parent so I cannot begin to imagine how you feel but my thoughts and condolences are with you.

I appreciate the kind words. I'm still at a loss really , the harsh reality that both my parents are gone now hurts far more than I imagined.

I go in phases of being okay then crying , then blaming myself , etc. I'm definitely going to seek out grief counseling when I return to California.

For now I'd settle for being able to sleep at all .

[BerenTebogo]

Sorry Ast
