Took my dad to some exams today, while driving home he basically admitted (under the effects of sedation) that he'd cheated on my mother years ago and now I'm very annoyed with him. They divorced 12 years ago but he was referencing events from 20 years ago.


Ugh.

Oh I know the sedatives probably rocked him pretty hard. But I keep thinking about that time in my life and some weird poo poo my mother has said over the years.


Bah. This poo poo is gonna bug me forever.

WHen my grandmother was very near the end I was not around as much as I should have been. She'd slid into dementia and it was painful to watch and I'm a coward so I avoided going to mom's house. My mother and sister were there daily and seeing to her needs and comfort. I had visited once and she was dead silent and her eyes unfocused and it crushed me to see her that way so I wasn't keen on seeing her worse off. But I went when we all felt it was imminent and I sat by her bed for a short while. I got up to leave and said "I love you grandma" and I swear to god, her eyes focused and she said "I love you too Rhyno's real name" and then faded back out. My mother and sister were livid that I just waltzed back in at the last second and got a goodbye. She passed three days later I think and they said she didnt say another word. When we have petty fights, I pull the "clearly I was the most loved grandchild" card out. It always makes the fight worse but i'd be lying if I said it wasn't satisfying. Especially if the fight is over the brother I haven't spoken to in 3 years.

Good for the employee. I am 100% sure he doesn't get paid anywhere near enough to give the slightest gently caress about it.

When I was ~17 I helped stop an armed robbery of the store next door to the one I worked in, and holy poo poo, looking back on that a couple decades later, that was not the wise path.

In 2000 it was Borders store policy that employees were to chase shoplifters and recover stolen merch. Until an employee somewhere got stabbed and they quietly changed the policy.

Anyways, I doubt anyone remembers my dental issues from years ago (extreme pain at random times, finally my parents paid for my mouth to be fixed and the dentist did a hack job) but I made an appointment to see an extremely well review dentist after having insurance for nearly 3 years. I'm in pain again and can't mitigate it with toothache cream any longer.

When I did security there were lots of fights at the bar, and i would just call the cops, stand there and watch.

People would scream at me to stop the fight. Lol gently caress you I don't get paid enough to get in the middle of a drunken fight, you stop the fight :v:

This is 100% why I finally quit that gig. I got my bell rang and said gently caress this poo poo.

You were a bouncer, right? So you're pretty much expected to break up fights and get physical with people. I don't know how much you were getting paid but yeah gently caress that poo poo it's not worth it.

I used to tell people all the time that would give me poo poo, I'm not a loving bouncer, I don't put my hands on anyone that's what the cops get paid to do.

Yeah, i took a stint in the kitchen and should have stayed there. I don't even remember the fight being that bad, I just broke up to guys screaming at each other and when I turned back around the other guy hit me just right and I was on my rear end. This only happened because the owner decided to be a cheap gently caress and fired the off duty cop who normally worked there with me.

That job also made me fat, unlimited wings and people buying you drinks all the time = 50 pounds heavier after the 9ish years i worked there.

Dentist visit went well enough. My hands hurt from clenching the chair but that's just my whole fear/hate of dentists in general. Gonna cost about $450 out of pocket to fix everything which is nothing considering my last round of repairs was $3000 due to no insurance.

I'm genuinely curious what life without pain is like.

I was convinced I'd never be anything more than this. 13 years at the retail job for bullshit money but I stayed because they were my family . Then they threw me away like trash. God was I stupid.

But on the bright side, I've talked enough poo poo about them and their store that they can't seem to keep any staff longer than 6 months now.

Yeah, it's offset so it shouldn't be any issue placing whatever gas stove we buy in place.

My wife wanted a gas stove so bad and it was the only thing the new house was missing so she flipped. We're planning on having the roof replaced in July so once that is done we'll start appliance shopping.

Then, getting into the cab, busted a kneecap on the door frame. Tore something or another because it doesn’t bend well and has a new shape. Have a safe weekend, mine is pretty much over.

gently caress. Take care of that knee my man. You need both of those.

we were having a stupid discussion in the break room about how a town north of here is having a fuckin Klan meeting.

So this shithead I've never much liked just referred to the KKK as "the movement." That's a red flag. I just have to figure out if being a white supremacist is reportable to HR
