Life is teh suck today because (a.ka. the official B_tch & Moan thread)

BSG fans are everywhere. They are even wonderful. I am glad they were there for you.

The hubs had his weird stomach blockage/thingy going on again since supper last night (he sometimes gets a bit of food stuck between his stomach opening and the flipper that closes it) so I got to spend some quality time in the ER with him this afternoon. Of course, before the doc showed up, the blockage cleared itself and the hubs was fine. On the up side, the doc was super friendly and when he came through the curtain he said “So, since you fixed yourself, do you want me to do any expensive procedures on you?!!” :smiley:

I watched the Ravens game today. :frowning:

He wasn’t smoking as he said this, was he? :wink:

My Lap top at home has decided to erase some of its system files…so that means it wont start…not even in safe mode. How i have to find my system disc and hopefully i can get the DVD driver to read and to a system restore. It looks like i might have to get a new computer sooner than later…sigh. How sad.

In a gravelly voice did he offer either one of you a “smoke”?

I got fired today, not made redundant, not “let go” but straight-up fired. Watched like a hawk by security as I removed my personal belongings, marched out of the office and told i was no longer welcome in or on company property.

:frowning:

My crime? Receiving and immediately deleting spam email. Everyone in the office gets the same problems, but it’s a handy excuse for a manager to use when removing a disliked member of staff, it means I can’t take them to court for unfair dismissal and discrimination.

If only I had kept the video from the christmas party where my manager spends 20 minutes talking about me, and that she was trying to find a way to fire me…

Oh, wait I did. :smiley:

But wait…with their lame excuse for an excuse can you still use that video? I sure hope you can. Go get 'em!

The Naughtiest Monkey ouch I am really sorry! But I am betting there might a few laywers on this site that could help! so calling out to any good lawers and fight the power!
Good luck. well if ur in pa and in the software field send me an im maybe I can send you in the right direction?

A quote from the video, during a conversation about me:

I think I’ve got a good case, unless they fire EVERYONE for doing the same thing as I did… including my ex-boss, the one I’ve spent the afternoon signing up to every spam list I can find. I want to see how commited they are.

Sadly I’m not even entirely sure what PA means (Philadelphia?) but ooh yes, software and me, ROCK! :smiley:

PA is Pennsylvania

We had an all-day emergency room thing this weekend. Ultimately, a waste of time and money. Grrrrr…

I had to watch the Steelers / Ravens game yesterday :frowning:

ahh yes I meant the state of Pennsylvania…

Wow. Play your cards right and you may not have to work for a long time. :cool:

Aw man, that is the suck!

I got laid off (American for made redundant) a couple of months ago and it was no fun. Good luck on the job search and the lawyering!

Bwwwwaaaaaahhhhhhhaaaaaaa! This has made me giggle for the last hour! Good luck with the Sorry Barb-kicking!!

HOLY SHIT! I’m so glad to hear you’re okay! Thank god you’re able to find your way to safety.

and may I echo that “HOLY SHIT!” you truly are Lucky to have gotten out of that. so glad you’re all right.
