How are you feeling?

So this guy I've met a couple of times sends me a PM on FB, quite out of the blue. After the small 'hey how are u?' talk we get to, 'so your friend who was out with you the other night, I've not seen her before, who is she?'
Mate, if you think my friend is hot and want to know more about her, just say so right away instead of making me think for a moment you actually wanted to see how I was.

Grumble grumble.
Tell him exactly that. I'm sorry on behalf of all men out there.

like poop on toast.

Beginning to get concerned about my leg problem.
If it's still moving up and painful tomorrow, I guess I'll have to have an adventure in the emergency room.
I hope you're okay, Weirdy.

IRRITABLE. I worked twenty hours this weekend figuring out how to do things that I wasn't properly trained to do. I'm tired. I'm overwhelmed. I'm stressed. Do not disturb!

Very good, Drummer! I've given up the alcohol (well, almost), as well. Your body is definitely going to thank you. :)

Haha yeah, no doubt!!! I'm pretty sure I was spiraling into a possible drinking problem for a while there. But this has been a piece of cake, I've had no temptations at all whatsoever, same goes for smoking and maybe it's only been 17 days but I'm already feeling amazing. When I first went back home on Friday, my drummer and bassist both kept saying how healthy I look, even while being in slings they said I had lost weight and just flat out looked so much healthier. So it's apparent to others and obvious to myself and I'm not looking back. Feeling great and I'm gonna keep it that way!!!

a half hour before work ended on friday my supervisor called all five of us in our department into a meeting. she told everyone they needed to air their grievances in the room because it has become a hostile enviornment. duh, everyone in our department (except her best friend) has had to take her aside and tell her she is making it a hostile environment! basically, she seems to have a problem with everyone else, although i'm sure she probably didn't see it that way at all. my supervisor has a problem with one girl because when my supervisor needed an employment reference (during her search for work elsewhere) my coworker did not give her a good recommendation. my supervisor has a problem with another coworker because she claims she doesn't work fast enough sometimes (not really a big deal in my opinion but it is to my coworker). my supervisor has a problem with me because apparently she said i'm "weird" resulting in her bullying me (why she thinks that is OK, i don't know).

anyway, she made everyone air their grievances and they did, including me. i came out and told her everything in front of everyone. she asked why i didn't go to her boss to report the problem. i told her that i have to suck it up because i am a disposable temp, i need a stable job, and don't want to seem like a problem employee. she gave me an obligatory, mechanical, insincere apology. that was about it.

she said in the meeting everyone needed to leave their problems behind and start fresh. i will, of course, try but... it is hard to warm up to someone who has been nasty to you for no good reason. now that this is aired i am afraid i will get a phone call in the morning telling me i've been dismissed from this assignment.

i am painfully shy, quiet, and, yes, weird. i know this. but i try. everyday. i am nice to everyone and i work damn hard. i know it SHOULD be, "if people don't see that, that is their problem." but it is my problem when my job is on the line. and... stress ensues.

She seems like a very nasty person. No wonder everyone's having problem with her. I guess its good that she's now aware of the frustration. I hope things get better. Btw being quiet and shy doesn't make you weird, I'm sorry she feels that way.

I'm not sure. Kind of stressed out and irritated.

I have a lot to do in the next few days. Lots of planning too, for my upcoming trip. Anxious about the funeral as well, and just not liking people very much right now.

My head hurts. My hands are still chapped from work the other day. I can't believe how red they still are, and itchy! I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that, maybe they can have me do the cash register so I don't have to wear gloves or handle too much soap.

In positive news... I don't feel as badly as I did not too long ago. I think it's because I've been avoiding certain things, and focusing on everyday tasks that I have to. I'm not happy and joyous, but I feel much more peaceful.
Hang in there, I hope everything turns out fine.

You have such a great way of taking the negative and turning it into a big positive! Way to go!!!! :)

Too bad her supervisor wasn't there to hear it all! She sounds like a serious wacko! And who asks their subordinates for a job referral - WTF??? :eek: I'm sorry that you have to endure such a horrible work environment day in and day out - yuck!

Oh, that's no good, Srijita. You're always the first to help, I can see that, but sometimes there's not much more you can do. Just be there for your friend when he wants to chat and I'm positive he will appreciate that.
Thank you Mikey, much appreciated as always :)

Ahhh, I'm glad somebody can relate to this. It's just like how can you be this forward about somebody you barely know? Good for you for putting him in his place.

This guy is continuing... "Do you think you'll be out next Saturday? Do you think _____ will be with you?"
**** off!

That's very annoying. I'm sorry you're going through this.

Hahaha.
Just annoys me all the chit-chat and pleasantries. What makes people so desperate that they can be like this about somebody they barely said a word to when they met them once?
I'm probably sounding bitter, I'm not jealous, just a bit annoyed at how transparent his real motives are. I should have just given him her fb.
It sucks when people have ulterior motives for being nice!
 
I feel irritated, by all the sounds, I'm in college right now and all the sounds are bothering me... Think I'm going to put on some nice beats or music, I just am irritated.. Why, i don't know. I'm very OCD enough to check why I AM irritated.. Still don't get it..
