worked hard all day and at the end one of my bosses got on my case for some stupid shit. I feel extraordinarily low down about it for some reason. I just wanna be good at my job. oh well.

I hate when this happens.... I'll work really hard all week when my superiors are away on vacation or in another city or whatever, then when they come back they will give me a hard time about some completely minuscule problem.

tl;dr I know how you feel man.

that reflects more poorly on them than it does on you. only a shitty/manipulative boss gets one of their staff offside by disregarding their hard work and making a fuss about irrelevant shit.

thanks dudes.

to be fair my bosses are usually cool about everything, but i don't think they realize how much of my work goes into cleaning up their own blunders, so when i mess something up, i hope they understand that... but today didn't give me that impression. whatevs though, i'm going in on my day off tomorrow for a meeting at 7:30 am (that no one announced until today), so i'll fix the issues they had today while i'm there and if they have anything else to say, they can tell it to my balls. :D

i found this coffee at my corner shop which is literally the best coffee i've ever tasted. when i ran out i went to buy more but found that that had kept the same brand but now had a different range from that brand. it's still good coffee but not anywhere near as good. they don't seem to sell it anywhere else.

This thread.

Sorry, just wanted to post in here.

waiting for a girl to answer.

 

not a fwp.

I also invited a chick to a date. It was supposed to be on last friday, but she said that her uncle suffered something and all the family would go to see him, lel, so cancelling the date. She said also that "for other day" and that "talk later" and I'm still waiting her to talk to me.

 

girls are tuff innit

 

oh well, I got time

 

she said no.

meh.

I keep seeing inane anti-marijuana articles being posted by my local newspaper's Facebook page. Whoever's posting them is doing a pathetic job convincing the public that marijuana is bad, given how there's backlash every time.

Granted it's very rare I touch it, but it already got legalized here last week. I wish they'd fire the chicken brains who are posting such stupid crap, but then that would go against the doctrine of free speech. Oh well.

wisdom teeth ripping out in 20 mins....

on the plus side I managed to get two days off work for it.

Second fwp I'm so far behind on my homework I have to use these two days off to basically study for 12hrs each day.

I have a gripe about lighters...there were these Colt lighters that used to be so good that you managed to lose them before they ran out, but then they changed something made them child proof or someshit and they now suck ass.

I think I'm finally depressed!

I really fucking hate my job... I work part-time in retail at a store for a shoe company that shall remain nameless, I've had most of the week off since corporate has forced management to significantly cut hours for everyone lately (another reason I need to quit). Apparently earlier this week they got secret shopped and failed miserably like a 16/100 score for our service. Now to my logic I had nothing to do with that with the whole not being there and all and it being different associates who got shopped. Despite this, upon returning to work today I get grilled like it's my fucking fault my co-workers are incompetent! Even after pointing this out I still get lectured further. I'm SO over this job, and have been actively looking for better jobs, I can't wait to quit this bullshit.

I need to take a poop. I'm not at home. I need to get home so I can take a poop.

update: I pooped.

at home? or did you get over that irrational fear?

Kitty rant:

Motherfucking cat pissed on the motherfucking carpet while I was sat there watching him do it.

At the moment he will piss in the litter tray but only shit there 50% of the time. So I'm used to scoping out when he starts scratching around and grabbing him when he squats and putting him in the litter tray.

This time it he was just sat there staring at me, battle of wills. I waited.

Fucker gets up and waddles off leaving a slowly spreading puddle behind him.

This is how I know the litter tray does not meet his (extremely fussy) hygiene standards.

Oh yeah, out of litter too. Meaning I have to go to spend my rapidly depleting funds on the expensive litter which he demands.

And another thing, yesterday I heard a crash from the bedroom and found this:

I think that cat might be half kangaroo with hind legs that can propel him to those heights.

This week my pain threshold has been tested to the limits. Started on Tuesday at the dentist with an aborted root canal. But that was nothing compared to what followed. Throughout the week i've had this swelling of the middle finger, down by the nail. It's been spreading and getting more and more painful, yesterday i had to google it and found it was a nail infection called called Paronychia. Last night it spread from the side of the nail round the skin above the nail to the point where the shape of the finger was deformed. The swelling looked similar to this picture from google, except my nail stayed normal, unlike this poor bas.

In desperation i tried to burst it with a couple of times with a pin (which was momentarily excrutiating) thinking some fluid would come out, but just a tiny bit of blood did. That made the pain worse and i got no sleep last night because of it.

I went to A & E this morning to get a doc to drain it and eventually after he checked it out he prepped it for the scalpel, i was offered anesthetic injections into the finger but stupidly said no, wanting to get it over and done with quickly. He dug the scalpel into the skin above the nail and started cutting along, images from Martyrs started flashing in my mind, this was pain. He noted that nothing much was coming out. So repeated the process another couple of times along the circumference of the nail. I had gritted teeth so tight to stop from screaming. Worst pain i've ever had in my life. Finally, dressed the finger and gave me a packet of antibiotics and co-codemol to eat which gave me some pain relief but made me really tired, especially after not sleeping, i have 7 days of antibiotics to do until the infection has cleared up. I don't know how it began, all i can think of is i've been biting my nails and a raggy bit at the side has led to a cut which has got dirt or bike oil in it or something.

I'd never heard of Paronychia until last night, but holy muddafuckin shit, dawg...it's a name which will give me chills for the rest of this life and probably the next.

oh i got u there Schlitz

try being stuck in about foot-cubed's worth of crumpled, mangled flame-lit car for nearly 3hrs after a blow-out @ 80mph with both of your femurs forced out of your pelvis (leading to pelvis/hips fracturing into various pieces n sherds), with both femurs subsequently forced out & up into your rib cage lacerating internal organs.....add wonky breaks to tib/fib in both lower legs, dislocated knees (MRI's pending), dislocated ankle madness, compressed cheekbone, severe facial lacerations (100+ stitches, no exaggeration and the after effects take some getting used to), mega concussion and right when you think you cant handle another second the paramedics give you i.v. ketamine so instead of the pain stopping you just end up in an alternate reality IN MIND-BENDING AGONY

ps: those mechanical sheers the fire-service use to cut through metal are like summat out of a David Cronenberg nightmare

ps: the NHS is a wonderful organization, got 50/50 odds by the surgeon that i wouldnt walk again & can now walk the dog a mile & a half

I fukcing hate when you're like creating some stuff and slowly you get uninspired and bored. Fuck it, feels worse than death. If I had a superpower it would be being fucking inspired all the time!

Jesus Tapdancing Fuckbeans

shit happens you cant prepare for, being in a unit full of amputees and paralyzed folks brings it home

the rub is that the media loves to bash the NHS in this country, but there are some incredible people working for it and give thanks to the gods that they do

edit for stoned

and cannabis has been a wonderful part of the recovery process, pho realz, like wd40 for pain friction

I keep forgetting that I posted on threads and get surprised when reading a thread and notice that I have already posted in it but I don't remember doing it.

edit: can't be arsed to write comprehensible sentences on the internet

The girl I'm seeing is super drunk so I had to leave a friend I was with to go meet her and take her back to mine. Took like 20 minutes to walk her around 1 corner to my flat. She then thanked me by being sick all over my new duvet and bedsheets. Spent the past half hour cleaning sick from her hair/my bath tub.

Now she's passed out whilst I'm wide awake because of all the adrenaline that kicked in trying to sort her out.

Still fancy her so I guess that's a good sign?

I am looking forward to reminding her of this in the morning tho tehe.

Also @ schlitze I get that sometimes, it is because I bite my nails for sure. It can be pretty painful and I usually end up sticking a needle in there in multiple angles and draining it. Pretty gross. I guess self-inflicted nail biting wounds is a pretty good first world problem too.
