I bloody HATE AOL.
My copy doesn't like staying connected. In fact, it seems to take GREAT PLEASURE in disconnecting me when I'm trying to write/install scripts on people's (or my own) websites, or update, or just.. EXIST online. So after putting up with it for a month or so, me and my PMSy self decide to call AOL and hope someone pisses me off, just so I have an excuse to rip someone a new asshole. Of course, the first thing I get is some automated bullshit that's voice activated, so god help you (and especially if you have Bank of America, my GOD you talk about a sensitive voice thing) if you have the TV too loud. x_x So I go through that shit, glare at the TV since they're showing crap on Bush, press 2 for English...wait.................and lo and behold!
I GET SOME FUCK THAT DOESN'T SPEAK GOD DAMN ENGLISH.
I haven't mentioned yet what I think of outsourcing. It's the biggest load of utter COWSHIT that I have ever seen in my life. We have SO MANY problems with the unemployed here at home, we're going to ship all our work out to fucking India and Uzbekistan (not really, but the point is what it is) so the head pricks of the cheap shit companies that dominate our economy can have a bigger wad-o-dough in their back pockets. Oh, I'm sorry. Are you unemployed and looking? Too bad, WATCH THIS! *sends YOUR job out of the country*
So yes. Let's send these mindless, brainnumbing, THANKLESS jobs to people who can barely afford to put clothes on their backs, and we'll pay them $.50 an hour BECAUSE WE CAN, then WE can have all these high dollar cars and clothes and have shopping sprees like Paris Hilton who when she takes her half of the inheritance will have MORE MONEY THAN GOD, and these poor people IN AMERICA are working their fingers to the bone trying to FIND a bloody job and CAN'T cos CEOs want to have as much money as humanly possible. And heaven forbid they help people in their OWN country who are trying to make ends meet.
Ugh. I think that rant is over...now, onto the IDIOT at work.
Our IT Manager is just...fucking STUPID. Honestly. He's TRYING to get fired. He's been coming in late, leaving early, dicking around. Well, we're supposed to get a new building soon, and he had been coming and going all morning. So, lunch rolls around, he calls and says 'Hey, just to let you know, I'm at the new building getting measurements so if anyone needs anything, call me on my cell.' No prob, we figure that's probably where he is. HAH. Boss comes back, coworker flags her down and tells her our IT's message, and she goes 'Oh REALLY. Cos, see, we've been there since quarter to one, and I KNOW he's not there.' Way to go, ass, dig a deeper hole for yourself.
Oh, and that's on TOP of the lie he told us all about his mother in NY. Apparently, last weekend he went to NY cos his mom was sick or something. Never went. He was in Tennessee, and was then that Saturday night with our payroll manager's daughter. x_x Nevermind the fact that our payroll manager KNOWS THIS and is good friends with the Admin Dept head.
Stupid idiots. MEN. They're all morons. No offense.
Anyway, I think I'm out. I have to go work Heels and ride Andy tomorrow, clean fish tanks, and yeah. Get to work FOUR horses Sunday, if Diane wants to start Harper and Laurel, and maybe even Risky. Risky would make five. I will be DEAD Sunday night. So if you don't hear from me for a while, that's why ^_^
