Right now I'm.... - potthole - 11-24-2008
fetusfacedwindbag Wrote:Yeah. It's been several months, but we've been talking a little bit for the past couple. It's tough to let someone go that you've been with for that long, even if times have been tough. I did a really dickish thing with the ring though at one point. I put it on graigslist with a pretty funny ad attached to it, and then I sent her the link. What can I say, I was mad. I didn't just do it to be mean though in my defense. I fully planned on selling the ring.
And if I sell it, it will immediately go to the down payment fund.
I hear ya. Sorry you've had to go through that.
That craigslist thing is sort of like what I did after I sold that jewelry the old girlfriend left at my house. I sent her an e-mail, thanking her for allowing me to get an engagement ring. She never replied back.

Right now I'm.... - fetusfacedwindbag - 11-25-2008
Is the dogsitter a friend? or a business?

Oh man, I feel for you. Our dog popped his leg out of its socket running after a frisbee, and even with surgery, he's had issues all of his life, and even more now, now that he's so old. Breaks my heart to see him sometimes when he tries to get off the kitchen floor to greet everyone as they get home.

I'd make that dogsitter pay up...sounds like they didn't do their job very well.
I hope you didn't pay them?!?!?!?!?!?
Right now I'm.... - vassillios - 11-25-2008
dogsitter was my brother. what happened is that my pup was playing with his dog (100lb American Bulldog), who's usually good natured, and his dog ended up snapping at my pup. when he snapped at the the pup, he stepped on his rear leg, breaking it near the hip. my bro say's he'll help out, but i know better.
Right now I'm.... - linzi - 11-25-2008
I just turned 40 shades of red....sorry....I didn't know it was your brother.....when you said dogsitter, I assumed you took the puppy somewhere and they neglected it. There's a special place in hell for people that abuse children or animals.
I'm not saying your brother abused animals...I know it was an accident.
Right now I'm.... - Allyson - 11-25-2008
Well that's a stinky situation.
I briefly dated a guy whose sister owned a petsitting business. I believe the pets in question were her own, but she arrived home one day to find that her dogs thought her kittens were toys and got them out of their cage and killed them - playfully. I don't know what ever happened after that, but I surely won't be using her petsitting services even though it was an accident..

don't worry about it, i dident specify anyway. i guess you just have to figure that this stuff happens every now and then, especially with crazy puppies.

yeah, i wouldent either. i won't be taking my dog to my brother's anymore. i'm sure he could have done something to avoid the situation, like keep the excitable puppy away from his dog when his dog shows signs of anger...

His homeowners insurance should cover this for you.

Ugh I worked at a Starbucks in the mall in high school. It was complete hell during the holidays, especially Thanksgiving weekend and December 26.

I worked in a small town grocery store, the week before Thanksgiving and Christmas always blew. days after were slower than hell and awesome...caused lots of trouble those days.
I get to go shopping friday...I think i'll be taking my pistol :

I have you both trumped. I worked at Meijer (Think Super Walmart, or whatever they call it, with food, clothes, general merchandise...etc) in the Sporting Goods Dept. Nevember 14th, every year, I would have about 20 people in line to get Deer Licenses. Then on X-mas eve, holy shit.... I know at least one year when I was a bagger, every cart in the store was being used. We had people in line to get one.
Right now I'm.... - 0rz0ski - 11-26-2008
My mom has both of you trumped. She works at lovely best buy. She gets to go to work at 4:30am on Black Friday and like Peachs, gets a nice 8 or 9 hour shift managing a line of insane people weaving in and out of aisles. God, I'm glad that's not my job. How the hell do retail workers stay sane?
Right now I'm.... - Queenie - 11-26-2008
Bless your heart! I worked in retail (a store called Service Merchandise that is no longer around) in the jewelry department. I sold jewelry (of course), but ended up doing a lot of maintenance as well (buffing rings, resizing, fixing watches). The worst thing I remember was the store pushing their extended service plan. We had to offer it to everyone and most people were just ready to get the hell out of the store and didn't want to hear it.

I'd much rather work at Best Buy during the Holidays, than have to work from 10 pm to 7 am selling licenses, just because rednecks are too stupid to come a day or week, or month...)before that. And your mom is gay.

sorry guys, it's a rush to get the best sales and get all your shopping done in one day.

Which SM did you work at?
Right now I'm.... - fetusfacedwindbag - 11-26-2008
I used to work in retail. I sold shoes through high school and college.....what a drag. We used to get everyone out on the floor for black friday. It was mandatory.....but WHO BUYS SHOES for a Christmas Present for someone?! Umm three people in the world. We ALWAYS had to send half or more of the staff home a couple hours into the day. BUM ME OUT! I'm glad to have an office job now. I get to go shopping on black friday instead of work..... I probably won't even shop though. I'll probably just stay out of harm's way.
I'm doing a more personal/ generic gift for everyone (I know that sounds like an oxymoron, but I'm making something for everyone. I think it's more personal to make something than to give them a shirt that they'll wear twice and give to goodwill.)

Rivergate. I had a full time job as well, and only worked during one Christmas season. It wasn't worth money, only the discount!

Gotcha. I used to know a guy that worked in jewelry at the Green Hills location.
I can't say that I haven't had a job that was only worth the discount. I worked at the GH movie theater for a summer to get free movies, but I never even went to see a movie that whole time. ???

I worked 5 holiday seasons at one of the big "anchor" stores at the local mall. Day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve were 10 to 12 hour shifts each year.

heading out to prepare for thanksgiving dinner. Anyone that knows where Lawrence Michigan is feel free to stop by wearing a FBHW shirt or hat and eat dinner with me and my fellow firemen at the fire station.
Happy Thanksgiving!!
