I wish we could have nice things...
Yup. I’ve got plenty of other stories from the last 7 months that squarely make her the worst roommate I’ve ever had, but that shit is so beyond the pale.
Two and Half Men. Highest-rated show for a while, wasn’t it? And whoooo the fuck?
1) Two weeks ago I had to tell my roommate “I don’t care whether you respect me, but please respect my pets.” Needless to say, there have been a butt-ton of problems, and she is a poor communicator who bottles up her anger, and has no sense of mutual respect, people skills, decency, or boundaries. But I never thought…
So... Anybody know anyone in the Austin area who’s looking for a roommate? Or roommates? Or a place? My apartment/house-hunting is a whole lot harder than I expected, now that I’ve got a cat and a dog to bring along with me. And as weird of a place this is to extend my search, the folks I’ve been meeting via…
It reminds me of people who don’t refute the idea of privilege, because they’re so hung up on the word that they can’t be bothered to understand what it means and what it describes.
Can we take shots for “secular”, “smear”, “attack”, and “persecute”? Or are we already too far beyond alcohol poisoning?
Did the same thing to a really loud group of Freshmen my Sophomore year! My buddy and I walked in; I was holding a clipboard so they knew I was serious!
Whyyyy didn’t I save my Bob Saget story for this Pissing Contest!?!? No!!!
It’s okay; there are worse burdens to bear! The picture-name combo is what makes things stick for me with other folks - and I guess at a certain point I stop reading the name entirely so much as just recalling the commenter, so hopefully that’s the impression it gets, and you just stop noticing what a lazy/overdone…
If I wasn’t going to bed right now I’d scroll super far back through your comments and recommend a few, so plz pretend that I did! G’nite!
:-D That is so awesome!!! There’s another amazing story about her and her family in the thread — it blew me away! She is incredible.
Papier-Mache, please! Clearly, you’re a barbarian, but surely your phone has an I key!?
Hey man - I don’t mean to sound pretentious or nothin, but the aforesaid dick ornaments are actually fabricated through an artistic medium termed Papier-mâché.
Not to mention those outside of HR who are very savvy at operating juuuust within the confines of the law. One of my friends and former bosses, who taught me soooo much about working in a corporate culture, has some dubious ethical convictions, and is a savant at getting what he wants without jeopardizing these rules.…
In my experience, HR is only as capable insofar as it’s in the room during any given interview. There are excellent, thorough, respectful HR executives/employees I’ve worked with, but ultimately during a 1 on 1 interview with a manager who is not in HR, you are at the whim of their training and their concern for…
I appreciate your response. I’ve worked for 7 years in corporate sales, primarily in large high tech companies selling to other large organizations, which ain’t a bad racket, but I still cling to my precious Gawker Media commenting anonymity because I don’t feel I have the financial security to even expose my…
Hypothetically though, what if you lacked the financial security or job options to find your dream job? Or more specifically, I have and will be asked these kinds questions for tons of jobs I’m interested in - either because some managers aren’t well-versed in these laws, or because some people are willing to…
