Default The 'I'm Pissed at the World' Thread!

I got this idea from another forum I'm on. It's basically a rant thread. Just to rant about things that are making you mad that day, things that you want to punch, kick, or just plain kill. This is kind of different from the 'open letter' thread. This is for pissiness only.

I'll go first.


This one girl I work with has been here for 8 years. She orders our desk calendars every year. Since she was promoted to executive assistant, she refuses to do any work that she feels is beneath her, like ordering calendars for instance. I asked her if she could tell me the place she gets them from so I could order them and she says 'oh, I can't remember'. BULL. I replied 'You mean to tell me you've been ordering these calendars for the past 7-8 years and all of a sudden you 'can't remember' where you got them from?' I just hung up on her and I just found the old box upstairs in our storage (go me!), so I don't need her damn help.

I can't wait until the next time she asks me for help, which will be soon because she is a moron. Whatever she asks me, I'm going to say 'I can't remember'.

Edit: I am also mad at the world because I can't whistle.

So im out side working, its slightly drizzling, i connect a battery to a piece of equipment i am going to operate to make sure is doing its designed function. I didnt have my jacket on and it was bid nipply out so i take my tools back inside with me and walk to my locker to throw the jacket on. Well when i went outside dumb ol' me forgets to pull my reflective belt over my coat. Reflective gear is important in the military for some reason, i guess we have a hard time seeing eachother working out in a parking lot with all of our camo on. Since no one said anything to me while i went out i was spotted by my squadron chief, he is the highest enlisted dude in my squadron, he didnt say anything to me. this guy told my boss who then told my pro-super who than told my supervisor and floor chief. I was oblivious to the fact and when my floor chief came outside she just hinted that my belt wasnt exposed. I fixed the problem and went on with my task. Once i was done i went inside and i was told by my supervisor that i had to go to the maintenance meeting and face all 8 of the flight chiefs in our squadron plus a few extras. So there i am facing all E-7's, E-8's and my old flight chief the squadron chief E-9. I gave them my answer to why i didnt do and that i had no reason on why i forgot, **** im human. I spouted off about 3-4 minutes worth of **** thats written in our Saftey bibles and preached that i will be a better leader to my subordinates by looking out for them and preventing things like this from happening.

Apparently that wasnt ******* good enough because these clowns made me write a 2000 word essay on reflective belts....that was it ******* reflective belts. i had nothing to go off of but a little bit of info from the saftey paragraphs i read. so i wrote a magical sarcastic piece becuase i figured it wouldnt go any where. well i was right it didnt leave my pro-supers hands but he said i disrespected him by not taking that assignment serious....

some of this may be chinese to you all but this is the life i live being a low level maintainer in the air force.

UGH....few more months till im gone.

Im mad that highly skilled labor doesnt pay what it should...Im a BMW tech and I know roofers and framers that make several dollars more per hour than I do and I could do their job without one day of training, yet they could even change the oil on one of these cars without help. I have been in training for 7 years (BMW school never ends cause they update their **** so damn often) and I make less than these guys and my job is 100000 times more technical, requires 100000 times more brain power and knowledge and requires 100000 times more technique to do...and still the industry pays them more to do what they do then me to do what I do. totally unfair.

I'm pissed at the manager of the restaurant I interviewed at. He said he could call me sunday or monday to set up my schedule instead of going to a second interview. I called HIM tuesday night and his excuse was "I got busy". I'm sorry but whether I am a sixteen year old kid or the owner of the company when you tell me you will call me you should call me. I understand you have no one to train me, I understand that you have been busy, but understand this, your only as good as your word and when I begin working if you do this continually I will not respect you whatsoever.

NO SCHOOL TOMORROW!!!!!!! I LOVE SNOWSTORMS!!

Damn, I'm glad I was Army. It's called an "on the spot correction"!!! Your superiors are quite full of themselves and need to have a boot placed knee deep up their collective asses for wasting valuable time and energy on such trivial bullshit.

I'm pissed because we can put a man on the moon, operate on beating hearts and send a missile hundreds of miles across a desert to land precisely up the third camel from the right's *** but we can't have a decent internet connection and I haven't been able to talk to my husband in 3 damn days.

I'm pissed off usually on a daily basis at this 1 coworker, who does not believe in being a team member. I basically have to run 3 depts. My primary objective is Injection Molding. My secondary jobs are, expanded metal, and the slitting of expanded metal from the master coils into different slit widths.

Anyway this old fart ( he's 60 yrs old), only has to do my secondary job, and he will not do anymore than he has too. He will bitch and cry if I didn't get a chance to do something to the metal machines, because sometimes my primary job will kick my *** all day.

He doesn't understand that I am multitasking as hard as I can. Then he bitches about our company about them not giving a **** about him, why should he give a **** about his job.

Everyone else has pride in their assigned areas, and we all give 100% everyday. This old grouch couldn't care less. I just want to drop kick him most days, cause he whines about how hard he had to work that day. Geez I worked twice as hard.. LOL

Oh yeah and Warm Beer. Dammmit. When I get some beer from the store sometimes it's nice and cold. Not the optimal 32.5 degrees I like, but acceptable. Other times it's **** warm, takes at least 30 mins in the freezer to get it cold. I need a " cold beer " after I'm done dealing with the world...

I am pissed at how almost every single person thinks they car drive at my school. and always try to race me.. Just because i have a mustang does not mean i am a street racer for goodness sakes. I just have a nice car to drive around. Then on top of that people around my school have heard that i race so the first thing that comes to mind is street racing and they always, always, ask me to race, and when i say that i am a dirt track racer they look at me like that is the easiest thing in the world. and tell me i should go to the drag strip.

which brings me to another rant. Why does everyone that drag races think that dirt track is so easy. To be honest drag racing is by far way easier, all you do is wait for a light to turn green hit the gas, hope you don't spin your tires, drive a quarter mile STRIAGHT, and then let off the gas. So what try turning while passing someone on dirt that you never know if you will hit a slick spot or not and go into the wall or into someone else.

i guess that i am just pissed at the way people drive in general, and how people look down on me for racing dirt track instead of the drag strip

I've got just as much respect for circle track, or dirt track, racers as i do for drag racers. But drag racing is a lot more complex than flooring it and hoping you don't spin.

I just found out that my favorite little restaurant just around the corner from where I am working is closing their doors for good today after 5pm. They said business has been pretty lackluster for the last 6 months and they can't really afford to keep it running. They had the best fountain Pepsi and sandwiches around.

Goodbye, Twistee Treat. I will miss you dearly.

You weren't going to post in my thread? MY THREAD?!? You are obligated to do so!


Tell those bastards to go rot in Satan's anus. I get tired of people making fun of 6ers, too. I don't (unless I am totally kidding) because I have something worse! A 4 cylinder Mustang, the slowest Mustang in existence! So if people want to pick on something, tell them to pick on me.

Doesn't matter how many cylinders it has. It pisses me off too, that some people are still too stupid to realize that it should still be respected for what it is; a Mustang.

I hate it when you see someone park in a handicap spot with the sticker and everything and they get out of there car and walk away with not even as much as a limp. Seriously irritating. Also, on the subject of handicap parking, I hate seeing people who are overweight get handicap passes. Shouldn't these people be the ones who have to park all the way in the back of the damn lot so they can walk off some of that weight and get a little exercise. I mean come on.

It's usually the little teens using grandma's car to get the good parking spots. Somebody needs to really disable their dumbasses.

But with the overweight people, sometimes it's their disability that causes them to be overweight. There are several diseases and conditions that can cause people to become overweight and inhibit their ability to be active. So I just try and remind myself that I don't know why they have the sticker and the weight is just the obvious problem.

I don't have much to complain about. I'm calibrating this colorimeter just to drive 1.5 hours to do a pH test on 2 analyzers. 1.5 f'n hours to press 4 buttons.

end rant.
