The Whining and Bitching Thread

Wednesday Whinge: Got SCREAMED at today by a do-gooding high-horse riding health & safety crusading purple-haired busybody hippie woman today as I was trying to do my job. I'd just climbed down from my ladder on Victoria Rd in Thornbury after changing out a component on the Optus network when she approached me ranting & raving about how she was going to call Worksafe on me because I wasn't wearing a harness (I was) and because I didn't have a 'spotter' with me (I don't need one because I'm not a linesman). I politely asked her what organisation she was with and she snorted loudly and yelled "THE GENERAL PUBLIC BUDDY, I KNOW THAT WHAT YOU'RE DOING HERE IS WRONG AND UNSAFE AND THAT YOU'VE PROBABLY GOT SOMEONE AT HOME THAT NEEDS YOU TO GET HOME SAFELY AND LOOK AFTER THEM" (as if she actually gave a fuck about me and wasn't just on some crazy deluded power trip). Then she continued yelling about not having a spotter and all the rules I was breaking. I tried to tell her that I'm an Optus tech and not a linesman and she snarled at me like a wild boar and started going a dark red colour. Bits of spittle were now forming at the edges of her mouth as she yelled. Nothing I was saying could possibly interrupt the crazed frenzy of good work she was doing for humankind. I asked her if she actually knew any of the regulations regarding being an Optus tech and she abruptly stormed off, only to return a minute later to write down my rego number and prance around looking at my ladder a lot. It took all my strength not to chase after her as she raced back to her car looking like she'd just won at Bingo and bludgeon her to death with my ball peen hammer.

Oh Jesus. What a nutter.
 
I had nine college baseball games scheduled to umpire starting Friday through Monday and so far 4 of them have been preemptively cancelled due to potential cold or snow. Fucking bullshit.
 
Still trying to find a second part-time job, as most full-time jobs would clash with my very limited school schedule.

Still not getting any calls for the dozens of resumes I've sent.

Have you tried calling them? I've always made follow up calls a few days to a week after submitting an application and it has always resulted in a job. Granted, I only had one "skilled" job, with the rest being typical crap retail.
 
Goddamn theres so many idiots on this one other board I go to.

Classiest way to get permabanned (ie: no porn, no shocksites)?

When possible, I've mainly been surfing Craigslist though and most of these places don't provide a phone number. I guess I could give a follow-up email a try.
 
But why would he want to stop smoking?

The next time you complain about men, I'm just going to tell you "stop breathing and you won't have this issue".

If someone is smoking that much weed in a two day period, it is clear theyre fucking unable to be responsible with their use of it. Especially if they mean for it to last a more extended period.
