My facebook feed have been scrolling itself for the last few days and I do not know why.
"Oh, you're watching that video or reading that post? No, you want to keep scrolling!"
Printers are from hell.
People swear whenever I get close to their computer everything starts working right, and there's nothing in the event log that would be helpful regarding random little issue #299942.
Oh and fuck HP.
Literally had to check if you're from Finland and if you're my neighbor, because I'm suffering from the same shit right now.
Only difference is, the blinds on my window are actually golden colored, unlike yours which are the average white. I win.
So far the drama for final test is going smoothly.
I works on moving prop and appears one time at certain scene.
Until my teacher decided that im going to be the comic relief character.
My group haven't even approved yet and she already pressured me to improve my "funny" performance so people will actually laugh.
Fucking great, more stresses and food for my overthinking habits
Fuck Verizon. Can't get a signal worth a shit in a sense town with an overpriced bill.
@Zufeng interesting, you're a prospective actor?
Not really knowing anything about acting or performance, however my advise for you is to not be yourself on the stage, but be the character instead. Kind of like throwing yourself off the stage, or snapping out of your own you, into something else.
Not necessarily driving me mad, but god damn is my current job exhausting. Mentally fucking exhausting. There used to be some job-related thread, but this thread might be a better fit.
All day, every day, I'm dealing with so many different types of people, of pretty much all the different nationalities, ethnicities and cardinal fucking directions from East, West and North Africa to and from fucking Arabs to Yorubs.
Not only all of these people from Africa (and elsewhere like Asia, with Karens and Karennis - ever heard?), but I'm also dealing with people of very different professions like nurses, doctors and/or their assistants, police, border patrol, social workers, and best of all, frustrated district court secretaries who get a no-show somali from another company, then they need another somali asap for a court session on basically 0-hour notice, with certainly no time for the new somali to even read the subpoena. Kind of rare to happen, but it happens. It was about an assault and theft.
And that is not even the full extent of the different people I deal with. For example, I do some form of co-operation with the employment office. From them, I can request a list of potential job seekers (who can be some pretty "interesting" folk) who have also listed their language skills as something rare like igbo or polish, or whatever it is that I need currently. For me, these people are a last-ditch effort for a single order that we don't otherwise have an interpreter for in order to complete it, and generally as new recruits for me (and my newbie co-workers) to use for more interpretations in the future. How it works, is that I call these unsuspecting people like a shark (people who don't necessarily have any prior experience of interpretation work) and basically get the person in for an interview, usually at 9AM the next day, and send them to a client who needs an interpreter next Monday. I don't recruit just anyone for the job, for obvious reasons. No one likes complaints or no-shows. But it is up to me to determine and evaluate the person, and quickly train them in about an hour, and send them on a gig usually a few days later, if not the very next day.
All of this has created a pretty immense feeling of pressure and stress, because it feels like I'm almost running the company except for sending out (and cashing in on) the bills. I just do most of the work behind it, because naturally you can't bill people for nothing. You are billing clients for a service that the company provides successfully, in this case interpretation services.
It doesn't help that ALL of these different people are more or less hard to deal with. Like two out of ten are people that I like working/talking/dealing with. People can be unbelievably dense bastards, regardless of ethnicity or sex. Plus, I have to deal with my (in all respect for establishing such hell of a business) kind of shitty, cheap and paranoid bosses who certainly don't like the idea of paid holidays and they wouldn't grant my holiday wishes completely, cunts.
@Techno Grub Nah,its my final exams for this semester.
I can play my part just fine,its just my head that won't stop overthinking if things didn't go according to plan.
Yeah, me too.
Weather turned to rain and it's going to continue for another week or two.
Mood as of now and for the next week or two to come.

I wish it rained in Texas more often
I'd gladly take that rain off you. Heck, it could rain 300 days a year, and I'd love it.
Maryland keeps getting rain. Rained so hard the past few days it ruined our new grass seed for where the moles and the erosion killed the grass. Its either that or a dry heat with no humidity that bakes the poor soul that stays out for 30 minutes.
Mother Nature tends to mood swing here.
That's called good sportsmanship, keep it up!

I'm mad ytmnd is gone, and the old internet is gone. An age has passed and all we have is memories, and archives here and there. We will never be able to experience it the way it once was. All good things/ages come to an end, but man, if time travel becomes real or some shit I'm setting humanity right back to 2004.
Does anyone else remember when Boxxy was a cringy newfag?
What happened to the classic hilarious daily antics?
Where have the ancientfags gone? What are they doing now?
I feel like one of the last of my kind.
Seeing the list of project for final exams stresses me out,due to how heavy they are and how little time i have.
2k words essay,drama,research,presentation,etc.
Having several different people put tons of shit on my plate, and then ask me why their specific request still isn’t done.
i just want to curl up in a corner and die
I can't sleep
Im paranoid that im doing the project wrong
I can't stop thinking about it.
God,just end it already.
I can't take this shit anymore
I go to the extreme and refuse to use weapons/characters if I hate being killed by them.
(stolen from a discord chat because I'm lazy)
I got in to work today
1 call waiting
everyone on lunch
what the fuck
and then I log in and see I have a ticket assigned to me
it's one I closed because we don't support the software they're having issues with
Resolution was "Assisted user with getting in touch with proper helpdesk"
and they sent them back to us again
I've already done everything possible that we can even do
it's a program issue
not a dependency issue
they keep saying it's a dependency issue
But I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice
and tested it on my machine and it's fucked up for me too
cold and flu medication doesnt do shit when im sick.
my nose is still runny and blocked.
I have never played Widowmaker in Overwatch as a matter of principle, so I feel you buddy
Silently, i resent my mother.
When i was kid,im pretty much extremely sheltered,always been taught to follow her.
All i have been taught in my childhood is to follow order,order and order.
Fast forward to present.
Pretty much when the time comes,she just released me like that.
Here i am,with identity crisis and stresses,trying to pass college while desperately searching my own identity
I just want it all to end
Im sick and tired of being envious to people that already got their shit together
It feels like my struggle are futile
When i'm at my best and feel the happiest alone i'm still not attractive as a person to anyone.
I hope once I join the Army and really get my life going i'll stop caring because I won't have time for love anyway.
"What are some of your weaknesses?" has to be one of the most pointless questions in a job interview. They might as well ask "So give us some reasons that we shouldn't hire you. Be sure to give a finessed, bullshit answer!"
so my sister is getting married later this year and i will be a groomsman to her soon to be husband. problem is, he wants all of the groomsmen to get these 500 dollar suits that i DEFINITELY cannot afford right now. just graduated college last week, im piss broke, and only doing freelance coding work so the money isnt amazing. I dont plan on getting any stable job either, as I start graduate school next year and I took a gap year to travel and get my last hoorah of freetime in before i commit my life to academia.
I definitely cannot afford this suit, but I am expected to go pay for it in the next couple of weeks. do i just suck it up and sell some of my shit to afford it?
I'd probably just get a suit that's affordable and looks decent enough. I don't think your sister's husband should be expecting you to fork out $500 for this one occasion.
If your sister supports his decision, and if you've told them of your situation and they still expect you to cough up the dough for it, no matter how much you love your sibling...
Give 'em both a nice big fuck you and either show up in what you can afford or don't show at all.
No wedding or family event is worth burning a hole in your pocket nuking your entire pants to smitheroons and bringing you financial turmoil, or selling off your possessions for something you're probably only going to wear once. Especially if (big if) they know you can't afford it and still decide to be jackasses anyway.
Have you tried talking to him about it? Maybe he'll be understanding and be more lenient on what you wear.
Well in most cases it isnt because they want just any reason not to hire you but its to see if you are able to reflect on your work and see potential flaws or limitations (something along the lines that recruiters are trying to see).
