Did I really say, "Dana thinks I don't have no compassion?"
Holy Shit. Dana....please don't respond...that's embarrassing enough as it is....

Idiots who get so close to my back bumper that all I can see in my rear-view mirror is their windshield. I swear if I would have stopped, that car would have been so far up my butt, I would have crapped car parts for a month.

Ouch I have no idea what it is that's just happened, but it sounds bad and I got the bit about $15k. Bad luck mate.

$15K?!! Does this dumb SOB lose his job or get a reprimand or anything?
Can you at least deduct it as a business expense or something? |

lose his job? pfft, no - why would he? he said he was sorry. dumb bastard. see i suppose the mistake was really mine, i mean i did initiate the screw up by faxing the instruction to him. then he took the instruction, read it, realized what he was holding, scanned it into the proper database, then he manually entered it into the completely wrong system resulting in a market loss of $15K. dumb son of a bitch. no, he will be retrained on his job. apparently it isn't kosher to just drag him out and shoot him.
yeah, i'll get to deduct it though. yay. i'd rather spend it. i already had it earmarked for new turf in the backyard and a couple other things. oh well.

eh, that's life. i'll go for a nice long run tonight and kick a ball into a net until my feet fell like they're going to fall off and i'll be fine.
my father once scolded me when i was bitching about a similar (but much smaller) loss. paraphrase, "you've made more in a month than i made in some years. bad shit's going to happen and some months will be ugly, sometimes due to your own mistakes, sometimes due to other people's actions. in any month that you have enough money to pay your bills you aren't allowed to bitch about money that you don't have." that was the gist of it anyway.

On the Do No Call List - since this is a "business", it pretty much doesn't apply to us.
btw Shopping aisles. Basically, there is enough room for two buggies to pass each other with no major difficulty. However, when some moron is walking beside the buggy and you have to wait because they are too stupid to get behind the person they are with so you can actually pass. Idiots. I know it's only going to get worse. |

I think some people think that if they are in an aisle, the chances that anyone else could possibly want to come down that aisle are pretty effing slim, so why not park the cart in the middle and wander up and down looking at stuff (of course, after they've stopped laying across the cart like it's responsible for their life.)
Oh yeah, pet peeves. |
