LOL, Irene, because apparently you will also be sewing the gown with cotton gloves on.
I'm annoyed at my husband who absolutely refuses to make any phone calls. He's been home all day today, and I'm at work. Someone had to call the vet to get a refill of our cat's medicine, and after arguing about it via text I caved and called. I know I shouldn't have.
He's going to Colorado in October for a conference and wants to see if he can change his flight dates. I told him that I can't call and change his dates since the flight's in his name (never mind the fact that I'm the one who booked the flights). He just shrugged and said he won't even try then.
The kid who we just hired to work under me has called out sick 2 days in his first month. He also showed up an hour late on Tuesday and had to leave for 2 hours in the middle of the day. He's showed up for our 8:30 am start time approximately 25% of the time. I want him fired. Unfortunately I have no power.

My SIL - but this is nothing new. I'm totally BEC with anything she does. And legit, it's all 'good' stuff (she's really into running, healthy eating, and furthering her education) but whenever she posts on FB it just sounds so freakin' high and mighty. I just want to tell her to get off her horse. Plus it doesn't help that she is MM to the extreme (ie no tv other than what they can get with the antenna, no internet except through their phones - which are some off brand carrier, she keeps the thermostat at like 78 all summer to use less AC and 68 all winter to use less heat, she diy'ed a pair of trail running shoes, etc) it just pisses me off.

Right?! Not surprisingly, she had many opinions to share.
Thankfully, the mob and bride seem to have no issues with having alterations done in an office in a converted garage bay rather than a proper salon (whatever that is)
I'm still semi-annoyed for being called out on one of the boards earlier this week for doing whatever the hell I wanted during the day when my oldest child started school FT and I wasn't working much. Cause, you know, we're all supposed to be super-productive members of society at all times until we're dead or retired.
Ack, chilerellanos, it was stupid and was some poster I've never seen before. She said something to the effect that she would be pissed if she were out working to support her family all day while her spouse did the things I mentioned, like read books. I think what bothered me most about it was this attitude I've seen a lot in the world that the spouse who contributes most financially in a marriage seems to be the more valuable one. No, just no.
Also, I know that there are plenty of people who have kids in school and work FT and balance everything, but that's not what this was about. It was basically about my taking advantage of my poor husband.
A whole department at my company got laid off last year so that they could outsource stuff to an overseas company.
My liaison at the outsourced company is as dumb as a box of rocks. I have to request everything at least 2 or 3 times, and half the time it comes back wrong and looking like shit. And the liaison guy usually has an attitude about it when we correct him.
I'm really sad that a lot of nice people lost their jobs for this prick.

I'm sorry on many levels.
Are you working with this guy mostly over the phone/IM or email? The one good thing I learned in the (shitty) last few months at my previous job was the importance of writing things down in long form when you work with someone overseas.
My former bestie has become the most self absorbed person ever. Maybe she always was and I was just blind to it, but every FB post is basically a bragplaint followed by 30 hashtags. And she's also posted a few Onion articles thinking they were factual. And she's also become a gym douche. A picture of chopped chicken breast captioned "On my fourth workout of the day, eating in my new car again because I'm always so busy running our business!!" #blessed #fitness #alwaysonthego #notimetorest #grind #mondayfunday #boss #fitfam #healthylife #healthywife #lovemylife #careerwoman (add 10 more hashtags here)
Welcome to adulthood? Can I have my friend back? The one who wasn't so focused on trying to convince everyone her life is perfect? The one who put down her phone long enough to hold a conversation? Jesus.

Ugh, I hate habitual hashtaggers. One of my FB friends / real life acquaintance does this, and no matter what her status is her hashtags refer to how hot she thinks she is. "Eating a pumpkin muffin from Dunkin's and drinking a latte! Mmmm! #hotstuff #sexymamma #cutiepie #pearlywhites #sixpackabs #mythighsdon'ttouch

LOL. So true.
I share a good friend with her, and she's apparently really insecure. So I kind of feel bad for making fun.

99% email, once in a while phone calls.
I hate phone calls to start with. This guy is such a pain to talk to ... A lot of "uhhhhh" and long periods of silence when I ask wtf is going on. Plushe doesn't speak English very well and has a thick accent that's hard for me to understand.
Everyone in my office hates working with them. My managers are hoping we can switch to a different company. The new-ish CEO just wants to cut corners everywhere so he'll stick with this company if they're the cheapest.
I emailed him maybe five times today asking if received materials I sent early in the day. He kept replying with nonsense I could barely understand, saying he didn't receive it (when I could see in my FTP queue that he did) or didn't know what I was talking about.
I went over all of it in one last email. It looks like I wrote it for a five year-old.

Do the emails have phrases like "kindly do the needful" "please revert" "do one thing" and "prepone"?
I'm 99% sure I have a partial bowel obstruction and I'm trying to prevent surgery or steroids by allowing my bowels to rest (yw for that!). No solid food or fiber is making me seriously hangry, but I guess that beats vomiting.
tacom -- Do not fuck around with that! Urgent care now, young lady. Feel better!
I have had nothing but lackluster experiences with urgent care. They're good for a quick abx rx but I don't trust them for chronic disease. I promise I'm being appropriately cautious. at this point there's nothing the hospital can do for me that I'm not doing myself; they'd either send me home or admit me for monitoring on a liquid diet and maybe IV fluids. I'm staying hydrated, taking miralax, and tolerating liquids. This happens with crohns patients and often a few days of a liquid diet allows the inflammation to subside enough that the problem can resolve. I promise if I get a fever, cannot tolerate liquids, or have abnormal pain I will book it to the ER and call my GI to admit me. Your concern is sweet though. Thank you!
Could you tolerate a nut juice? Those tend to to filling and high calorie. The almond protein milk at Juice Generation is delicious. 2g of fiber though -- not sure if you're going for zero fiber or really low fiber.
One of my co-workers says 'literally' about a million times a day. I mean it is being used properly but it just isn't necessary and it annoys me to no end.

I would assume she's on the verge of some sort of break down. No one who tries that hard is doing well.
Elite Yelpers. I feel like I'm reading the same annoying review over and over again. I swear they all start with "I was majorly jonesing for some carbs after getting my spin on at Soulcycle and happened upon this cozy neighborhood spot..."
Also, what is it with millennial girls that makes them take so many group photos from the back? (I'm having trouble finding an example that doesn't have people I know in it, but like a bunch of them are standing on the beach and have their arms around each other or in the air -- but the photo is taken from their backs. ETA: I knew a google search for "USC sorority instagram" wouldn't disappoint! here's what I mean)

i remember that. My initial thought after reading that sanctimonious call out was "shut up bitch", but I refrained from posting. I often spend my SAH days while DD is at school chilling out.
