Aren't you glad you don't have a flesh eating disease
So, this past week at work went by pretty fast. I had a revelation while there. If I am ever going to sell any cars, I will have to call the customers myself and get appointments, because apparently Salespeople are even too lazy to make a phone call. Ah well, just makes me look better when comparing my lead to appointment ratio anyway. I just wish someone would come in that we could sell a car to. Everyone is either bankrupt or in large amounts of debt so their credit sucks, or they are laid off, or better yet, they don't have a job and expect a bank to finance them for a vehicle. I am so tired of people getting mad at me when we can't get them financed due to their credit or debt level. It isn't my fault you are irresponsible and can't control your spending. I didn't get you in the situation you are in. Stop living beyond your means. I can see if you lost your job and then fell on to hard times. That is soemthing you couldn't help, but to everyone else who bought that house they didn't need, or bought all those cars and clothes and shit they didn't need, I have absolutely no sympathy for you. I myself was in a huge amount of debt just a short while ago. I never got pissed at anyone else or asked for a fucking handout. I accepted that I put myself in that position, and that I myself would need to change if I ever wanted to live differently. You know what I did? I stayed home, didn't go out to eat, never bought myself anything, and paid it off. What a concept right? Yes I know, it sucks not being able to have a life, but when you make a choice to max out your cards and over spend what you have coming in, you also need to realize that you are going to have to live with the consequences. I am not a bitch or an idiot or stupid for not being able to get a bank to give you money. The bank is being smart, considering you haven't proven yourself thus far of being able to pay back your debts. Also, don't get pissed when everyone gives you a super high interest rate or wants a bunch of money down. You should be thankful they are even loaning you the money. Besides, you want a low interest rate and zero down? Pay your bills on time, live within your means, and be a responsible adult! Until you can do that, say hello to 20%+ and at least $3,000 down if not more.
Anywho, enough venting about work. It is the weekend damnit, and this is happy time: ) Speaking on a personal note about debt though, I am so fucking proud of myself. I can go out and do things now, we can go out to eat. I can enjoy life and not have to worry about sending every cent off to credit cards. But, even with all this extra money, I am being good and staying within my means. Yeah, I rock at being an adult now: )
I got my commission check the other day, and decided to go to Blockbuster to treat myself. They have the 2 for $10 and 2 for $20 sale going on right now, so I scored big time on some great movies! Here is what I got:
Zack and Miri make a Porno
feast 2
Repo the Genetic Opera
Doomsday
Igor
Babylon A.D
Wanted
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Cloverfield
Versus(this was only $4 woo hoo)
Nick and Norah's infinite playlist
Ironman
Hellboy 2
They had Twilight, but I want to wait and buy the super collectors edition one so I can have all of the special features. I have a perfectly good burned copy to hold me over until then: )
Last night I got one of my movies from Netflix: Tokyo Gore Police. Very strange, and not much in the way of plot, but it had lots of weirdness and gore and violence, so I liked it. The picture of the girl above in this entry shows one of my favorite scenes from the film: ) I love alligator girls with man eating boobs: )
Next up, I should be getting The Machine Girl, another ultra violent and gore filled movie from Japan. Ah yes, the Japanese know how to do it right: )
Tonight, Phil and I are going over to Joy and Larry's to watch my Sis in Law Chaiya. Not sure what the plan is yet, but I'm sure it will involve junk food for dinner, and perhaps if the weather is nice, maybe we can go go karting or putt putt golfing or something: ) Now I have to decide whether to wear my Team Edward t shirt or my I love boy that sparkle t shirt.
I have been finding lots of cool pics online for Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead). I would love to go to Mexico to take part in this. It is so awesome! I also want to learn how to make sugar skulls. They are so cute and I bet they are yummy: ) Now that we have cleared off the porch, we are thinking about making that area of the house "Halloweentown", so what better for Halloween town than a Dia De Los Muerto's alter hee hee
So, at the moment, life is very good, and I hope yours is too. Never forget to live it fully, and don't let yourself get bogged down by all of the negative crap out there. You can get yourself out of any situation, no matter how bad it may be, through positivity and will power to move forward.I know, that sounds like a cheesy motivational tape or something, but it is true: )
and now, just cause I love her, here is Nixon Suicide, because whats a day without Nixon?
