What made you unhappy today? 5.0

[Ltl89]

Realizing that some people simply won't like you.  It's hard for me to deal with.  I try to win everyone over, but ultimately it's not possible.  Some people won't like you and will think bad things about who you are.  It's just that simple.  I wish I could handle that, but I can't.  I try to be nice to everyone, try to support them, try to comfort people, but my best is never good enough and that causes pain. I'm tired of not being able to have my own independent emotions because I always just get hurt in the end.  Why am I such a weirdo that cares so much about what other's think?  And why do I care so much about other people in general?  I wish I could just be mean and selfish at times, so I wouldn't have to carry the weight of the world on my shoulders.  Anyway, nothing to do but lick my wounds and move forward hoping that I will have learned something in the end.

Sorry about yesterday's rant I'd had a crap day at work, 07 00 til 22 15 no break,no meals, what was supposed to be a 30 minute job to fix a leaky pipe took 5 hours

Under the circumstances the rant was warranted, I have those crapo days too and everyone stops their ears and runs for cover, you're only human Kim!

[Kimberley Beauregard]

Nothing serious, just annoying.  I was trying on my female outfit and accidentally tore a hole in my pantihose (my pencil skirt covers the hole but not the tears below it).  I'll need to wait till I get paid this Friday before I can buy more pairs, so I'll have to make do for this Thursday's Chameleons meeting.  And my wig could never arrive soon enough.

There are always going to be people who won't see things my way and/or actively dislike me.  I spent wasted too many years trying to please everyone, especially when it didn't feel right.  The day I stopped caring about what people thought of me, started living authentically and being true to myself was one of the greatest days of my life.  I don't feel selfish or mean, I feel like I am finally myself now and I'm not making any excuses for it.  I am always here to help, even if I have to tell you something you don't really want to hear.  I also realize that some people are beyond my ability to help.  There are also plenty of people out there who aren't going to accept me no matter what for whatever reason.  They weren't going to be my friend anyway, so screw 'em.

I think you're a wonderful person with a great heart, and I like you FWIW.

I've taken up to avoiding that thread.

[King Malachite]

My city is cutting a popular bus route that helped me get to school.  I was considering going back to school in the future, but without that particular route, I can't get there.  -sigh-  I hate where I live....

[Lauren5]

Super super anxious, still no reply about the job. I should have heard back yesterday, they told me I would hear from them on Monday.
I want to keep applying, but this was so perfect of an opportunity. 30% off shoes, even clearance!
Like, I have to have these, even if 11 is the largest size, I will make them fit.

Just human nature. Even we aren't immune to it. Sad, I know.

I just received a recruitment call for a politician that I once worked for.  It was cold and impersonal with a general script.  Not to mention the fact that they constantly send me requests for donations and invitations to fundraisers.  To be honest, I find that hurtful given my history with that campaign and the politician themselves.  I really gave my heart and soul to them.  In this case, there really was blood, sweat and tears.  Leaving it all I felt was the sense that I was taken for granted.  Yes, I did get a letter of rec and have something on my resume, but I felt so taken advantage of for what I gave them and the indifference that was shown to me in return.  Like it was expected of to go above and beyond with nothing in return.  In any case, I will likely vote for them because I believe in doing what I feel is the right thing, but it hurts to have been so forgotten by someone that I worked so hard to get re-elected.  It's hurtful.

Still no response from the job. I'm getting to the point thinking that they're not going to respond because I didn't get it.

I was so stupid a few days ago. Sat. electro work, lots. I thought all was fine. Sunday afternoon I laid out in the sun, one piece bathing suit & got too much sun on my face.    It swelled up big time, almost scarry so puffy. Now it's done some but still puffy after a day or two of Ice bag treatment.


That was really stupid getting sun on my sensitive face.

Don't you believe it! I gave up on a job, took another and three weeks later, that job, the job of my dreams came through. I told the nice people at Macy's that I really, really liked working for them, but I couldn't pass up this other.

I've been doing that dream job for almost six years now.

Plenty, but, to add on top of it, even though I'm only outdoors for 20 mins usually each day (Not counting sat's usually), this damn pollen has given me a sinus infection which has left my nose half stopped up (so I can't half breath), running more than usual, my throat sore and feeling like I'm thirsty all the time. It got worse after I got home and finally I admitted to myself, I must have a sinus infection. To make matters worse, I have no cold medicine to take.. I guess, I may have to ask my Dad or neighbor to get me some if I wake up tomorrow and it hasn't magically gone away by then. -_- Oh and did I mention pollen usually doesn't affect me much, let alone in this way? Yea.. (Though that may be because I used to stay in doors all the time..)

That's reassuring. I'm applying for one that I *really* want right now myself, and if I don't get it I will actually feel pretty bad.

I'm not looking for anything long term, just for the summer, and since they replied only two days after I sent my application and got another interview in two more days, I assumed that meant that they were going to have me start soon, should they choose me. I just need to get a paycheck, any paycheck, right now, so I can go and actually buy food to cook with instead of living off all these leftovers and microwaveable meals I had that people gave to me. And to not feel so housebound.

[Serenation]

Getting so angry since I went off anti depressants. Having trouble being calm at all today.

Found an issue at work yesterday.

We have two options available which I advised the client can be done.
They want a third.
I am not allowed to do the third due to a global directive and would put my job on the line.

Right from the beginning I told them I could not do this and they still don't get it.
6 times I told them and they keep insisting on the third when it is not an option and wont be.

I think I need to get a hardware catalogue to find out what kind of a tool this person is.
