Even though I feel at peace - some people f'in suck ( RANT)
Edited on Tue Aug-01-06 01:30 AM by CarolinaPeridot
My work (job) - I hate working with gargoyles. I hate it because our manager talks to us like we are 5 year olds in our daily meeting.He has to talk like that because we have some people who act like 5 year olds. We are sometimes given briefings from human resources and it took him 5 minutes to read that shit just so idiots can get the main point of not forgetting your badge. Damn - everyday the same shit. I hate it that it takes 15 minutes to tell us the same thing that he has to tell us every damn day. Safety - just watch what the hell you are doing! If you can't do that then you don't need to be working there. I am posting out to another department. I try to be positive everyday at this damn place but the BS that goes on its bringing me down. Certain rules for certain people. I hate slackers who get away with shit because they have seniority but you want to come down on me when I do one little thing and I have only been there a year and a half - and I know more and work much harder than the people who have been there for 3-5 years ? Kiss my grits!

I just want to be left alone. I was going to go on vacation with my family for about 4 days in August but I don't want to do that. They don't accept me for who I am - I don't go to church and even though I would never hurt a soul, they smile at me but believe I am still doomed to hell. Anytime that I visit them my mom tries to make an ass out me in front of them like I am not human. I am so tired of that that it makes me want to cry. Forget that - I would spend time by myself. I am just not like them I wish they could get that in their skulls. All that Jesus Christ saviour stuff - I don't believe in it - I just believe in God. But - I don't put them down for what they believe in. They think that I don't pray - I just don't wear my spiritually on my sleeve because I don't feel like I have anything to prove to anyone but me and my God. I might not go out of the city for my vacation , I might just rent a hotel room and just be by myself for a couple of days.

And I can't help it that I speak English - someone did'nt understand the word "consent" so I was told to speak in a way that they would understand. WTF ever. It means to give permission you idiot ! Damn !

I have just been totally quiet for the past two weeks. I just need a break from humans. I just need a change of scenery. I have'nt really felt like talking to anybody. I just wave and keep on going. I have never not wanted to talk to anyone. The only time that I talk is when I type. If I was talking to the DU in person , I probably would just walk past you. That's how I feel right now - not in the mood for human contact. Unless its my 4 week old second cousin because he is just too cute !

I typed this post in a moment of selfishness. I take everything back. I concentrate too much on the bad. The stupid people I was talking about , they don't bother me because they are not a part of my life. My family they are never going to change ... so oh well. I could be someone living in Lebanon right now huddled in a basement scared for my life. But now I am just complaining like a snotty brat. I am sorry.

7. OK, Carolina?
if you want to be left alone, just DO IT. Turn off your phone, tell your family you will see them later.

8. it means to give permission?
But what does 'permission' mean? That's an awful big word.

I used to love it when we wasted time at meetings. It sorta made the day go faster, because outside of the meeting I did not have a tanj thing to do.

I almost spoke up after our plant manager showed us the lock-out tag out video for the third time. I wanted to ask two questions.

First, do you know my job better than I do?

Because I have been working at that machine for about a year and a half, and I think I know something about it.

Second, do you care more about my safety than I do?

Because I think a broken bone or other injury to my body is gonna hurt me way more than it hurts you.

So yes I think the whole safety spiel is management talking down to us, as if we are idiots who care more about production and don't know anything about our jobs or care about our own safety. The whole point of the regulations is to force the company to care more about our safety than they do about their profits. Yet they need to make it a command from daddy corporation to worker-children.
