The Whining and Bitching Thread

I've been in a relationship for 3 1/2 years and long distance (he was in Shanghai for 4 months while I was in NY) sucked because we didn't have Skype at that time. We met in NY, he went to school in Manhattan and I went to school about 90 miles north in Poughkeepsie, so we saw each other on weekends. Now we both live in Japan and he is about 4 hours away so we see each other a couple weekends a month and that's perfect IMO, no danger of overexposure/getting stale.

I would NEVER want to move in with him, and he feels the same way. We need space.

Whining and bitching........today the 3rd years graduated, which was nice, but now the teachers have their drinking party and I'm not in the mood to spend my entire evening as well as the day with coworkers wearing a suit.
 
Don't buy a new one dude. They aren't that difficult to fix, or worst case just go buy a good condition used one off craigslist or something.

I bought a practically new washer/dryer from a local repair/refurbisher guy for 140/150$ apiece.
 
Friend of mine bought a new washer-dryer for about $1100 recently I think, and he's had persistent problems with it. Seems he got rather gypped. Buying used def. sounds like the way to go with that shit.
 
I would never buy a used washer or dryer. I don't want to wash my clothes in someone's asscrums. No spank you.

Besides, new ones come with warranties and whatnot.

Also...new washer/dryers aren't that expensive. I bought a pair like 4-5 years ago that I still use for a little over $500. Unless you have no budget, you don't need to buy those super expensive ones that give blowjobs too.
 
It's not really worth a minimum of an extra 3-400$ to avoid something that a simple empty washload with cleaner or some lysol can fix.

Hell, my last mattress/box was a used kingsize I got from a hotel. I just beat the shit out of it and lysoled the fuck out of it, and put a mattress cover on it. Huge savings, slept great.
 
I guess I just seem to find good deals on new shit. My king size Sealy pillow top mattress only cost $450 brand new, including the box spring. It was a factory reject because it had a small tear in the fabric on the side of it. Bam!
 
Didn't have a pillowtop but it was a Serta and I paid a total of 75$ once you figure in the lysol I bought and mattress cover. Slept good and had plenty of room to sprawl out. Wish I had had the room for it when I moved but oh well.
 
We sell Serta mattresses at Goodwill.

So I've been in this terrible mood lately. I have all this pent up rage over my sister changing her mind about moving back out here (we were going to get an apartment together), and none of my friends who have jobs feel like moving out yet. Couple this with the fact that I've been overwhelmed with schoolwork in the past week, and basically I've been so tired that my family and my coworkers have all noticed.

My supervisor approached me about it in the weirdest way. She asks me, "So if you're this tired and you're working part time, how would you be able to handle full time?" I knew this conversation would come up because I've worked there half a year and our employee turnover is incredibly high, but I would have thought they'd sit me down in the office and talk to me about it. I told her that I couldn't handle going to school full time and working full time. I think that's pretty obvious.

Mt step mom tried talking to me about it, and she hadn't noticed how serious the situation was. She usually gives me good insight, but this time around, she just gave this look that was like, "Well shit, man." My parents told me I didn't have to worry about moving out if I paid some of my expenses, but I don't like living with their rules.
