If it gets too bad I’ll probably take a few days off. I feel like I can’t right now since it’s still the beginning of the year.

Heh I dont exactly have to deal with kids all day but I'm waiting for christmas vacation myself... i saved up enough paid time off to take from christmas day until the day after new years, but you get that time off regardless dont you?

 

[Funerary_Doom]

maybe just take a Monday off and go have yourself a nice long weekend mini-vacation. It's been about three months now right? Shouldn't be a problem getting one day off.

There’s always something to do. Like planning and grading and writing IEPs. And if I don’t do it on my time the shit literally feels like it’ll consume me. A Monday shouldn’t be too bad. I’m just going to see how long I can last until Christmas break. @Krow yeah I get that week off. Usually when we make it to that point it all feels doable since it’s like midway point. I think for that break I’ll go somewhere though. I really haven’t been socializing at all partly because I just don’t feel like it. Idk a vacation might be helpful.

Is this related to some school/internship shit or is it your job? If it's your job that might be an environment issue and my recommendation would be to change your environment. If it's short-term for school/intern reasons try to utilize some mindfulness and/or make use of any therapy options available locally.

It’s the job. I do like my students but my coworkers are unbearable, whiny and judgmental. Especially the one I have to work with since we share the same students. She’s really just not a good person to be around. And the environment is just a bunch of women complaining about the principal and everyone he hired (these women are making it a race thing when it’s not and it’s worse this year). Its not the best environments right now. It’s also just making me really dislike people and the fact that I don’t have time to do other things but be surrounded by these people sucks too. You’re right. I guess some therapy or yoga wouldn’t hurt. I suppose my insurance should cover therapy

My fave Mexican restaurant which was at the end of my street closed without a word of warning last week. Pretty devastated. So we tried a few of the new flashy fitout ones in the area that we hadn't really given a go on the weekend and holy fuck do they suck. If there's one type of food that doesn't need to be overthought and hipsterised, it's Mexican. Just gimme some fucking nachos and a decent burrito with a shot of tequila and a beer and I'm happy. But no, these new joints can't do nachos or burritos because that wouldn't be foodie enough. Far too fucking obvious hhhnnngggffff. I paid $8.50 for a corn chip with a small piece of beef and two bits of onion on it. $9 for some dish that said in the description that it was chilli, corn and cheese which ended up being two long soggy chillies with canned corn kernels thrown on top. And of course they make their own hot sauces because they're creative geniuses and so forth and they taste like arse. THIS WILL NOT STAND

The same thing happened to me with my favourite local Indian restaurant. Now my local place is a place run by a white guy and his Indian wife and they're massive hipsters and the food sucks and the worst part, overpriced!

 

[no country for old wainds]

we had a mexican restaurant here once and it lasted like a month because it was garbage and everyone here is stingy with money unless a place is really good.

which sucks because i love mexican food. thankfully we do have a good italian.

We've still got a great Indian place near us thankfully. It's pretty expensive also but the food is unbelievably good.

The problem here in hipsterville is that people go to the 'cool' looking places with their million dollar fitouts and sit there eating their overpriced rubbish and they love it. Meanwhile the places that actually care about serving quality food for a reasonable price suffer because these places exist.

 

[The Ozzman]

There are like 15 Indian restaurants in my city alone. All I've had are excellent.

 

[no country for old wainds]

there are several here and i live in a pretty small town. there are more indian places than fast food places. they're mostly good though.

 

[Krow]

WV'ians have accepted Mexicans for the most part. Mexican restaurants every fucking where. Not really indians though, I cant think of a single place within a 45 minute drive.

 

[CiG]

Is there any such thing as Native American eateries?

 

[CiG]

I was complaining in a stream that indigenous Australians don't really have any interesting slurs against us and in 3 seconds people came up with:

Pouch Monkeys
Vegemite Niiggers

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

The local Indian restaurant here rules. Chicken/Lamb/Goat curry medium spicy 10/10.

 

[Funerary_Doom]

I have a local Indian restaurant which rules and a shit ton of West Indian ones around me at decent prices. I really hope hispters don’t move this far up north into the Bronx. $7 Trinidadian chicken roti, like the size of a baby? Can’t beat that.

Last month while on the way to Canada on a whoring trip, I had a stopover before my final destination. I only had a short window of time before my connecting flight departed. It was in a different terminal so I had to haul ass and run, fanny pack containing my erection meds jiggling.

I arrived at the security checkpoint. It was moving slow as fuck. I looked over, curious as to what was the holdup. It was an elderly African woman in a wheelchair. The security was discussing among themselves how to get her though the xray scanner. I was like cmon people I've got places to go, whores to fuck

Suddenly, ANOTHER person in a wheelchair rolls in, this time a young Arab male in a cheap suit, pushed by an airport employee, and CUTS PAST everyone in line, right to the front just behind the elderly African woman. Jesus Christ how many of these fuckers are there and why can't they wait their ass at the back of the line?

So the line had not moved and the security were still talking and my plane was departing soon. I was getting pissed. Finally the elderly African woman stands up, all wobbly and shit, and hobbles through the xray scanner, shaking like she'd fall over anytime. All the airport employees and some of the other travelers in line looked so amazed like they were gonna cry, like oh what a strong lady, such heart. I on the other hand was thinking MOVE YOUR ASS BITCH I HOPE YOU TRIP AND BREAK YOUR NECK

Then the young Arab male stands up and also walks through, his hand held by an airport employee. I wanted to kick his ass so that he'd fall through the xray scanner, face first into the floor hopefully break his nose or teeth. Fucking shameless asshole who I'm sure is on welfare at the expense of the Canadian taxpayers being slow at the airport.

I call out "MY PLANE IS LEAVING LET'S GO" so that everyone could hear, and they all look at me like oh my god look at this Asian guy, able to stand on 2 legs and looks handsome and successful, being an impatient asshole, tsk tsk. Shaking their heads and shit. Fucking Canadians and their disabled refugees. Fuck off!

Finally I get through, board the plane just barely in time, and fuck some hookers, the end
