Just call me Pouty McPouterson.

GreenPepperBurger · July 2010

BF is on the verge of losing his job with budget cuts and what not (he works for a program owned by the city). I'm bummed. He needed this summer as a boost to pay off his debt, and that's pretty much shot.

We agreed to not get engaged until all his debts are paid off (that and being that we're still young), but this severely puts a dent in our plans. I know I'm being unreasonable, but I'm still bummed.

He did apply for a job that seems tailor-made for him, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

What is everyone else pouty about?

I'm pouty that BF's friends don't like me. I hate that they act like they are still in high school and make me feel like I'm back in high school. I'm so over trying to make them like me. Ugh...

I feel your pain about your BF's job. My BF might not get his job at the state back next summer which would totally sucks because its such a good job and he makes good money at it. IDK...I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that it all works out.

I'm also pouty over job searching. It's tough out there right now (obviously).

I'm pouty about getting puppy pictures from the breeder. She said she'll take some tomorrow when it's cooler outside, so the puppies can play out on the grass. FI told me this morning that for the last few weeks he's been having dreams about the puppy every other night, haha.

I'm sorry Greenpepper,

I will keep my fingers crossed that something magical happens and his job is kept in place. It's happened before.... and I want to vomit saying this but maybe it's a blessing in disguise? At least I hope so.

I am pouty about the fact that my unemployment isn't kicking in yet and that I wish the next 3 weeks would just come along so I can *hopefully* go to mediation with my work and reach our settlemt.

Plus I'm already irritated about wedding planning -- i cannot figure out catering for the life of me.

Sorry GPB.

Keeping fingers crossed he finds something even better soon!

I am pouty over having to wait who knows how long for my pro pics. I want them yesterday!

I'm pouty that it's over 100 degrees outside (well over - we had 118 heat index last week), and our A/C broke on Sunday, and our fridge broke last night.

The A/C is fixed, and the fridge will get fixed, but man was that $1000 we could've used elsewhere. You know, like on our upcoming HM in 3 weeks. :-(

Oh, no, Acro! Talk about bad timing

loves2shop4shoes · July 2010

I'm pouty about how much my job sucks and how few hours my boss gave me over the summer; he promised me 20-30 hours/week and ended up giving me around 10 (and that's being GENEROUS- one month he only gave me 3 hours two weeks in a row!) I too was supposed to use this money as a way to climb out of debt, but I only ended up further in the hole.

I had to resort to using an emergency stash of money I inherited years ago to pay off my debt and I'm PISSED about it.

I hope karma comes back to bite my boss. I hope he ends up so poor he can only afford one shoe and has to hobble everywhere.

Lol...you sound so bitter! not that you shouldn't be but this just made me giggle :)

[Deleted User] · July 2010

I know the job hunt isn't any fun...I've been working at it for 3 months now...good luck with all of that!

I'm pouty cause I'm the biggest clutz on earth...I sat down in my computer chair and hit my knee really hard (smack dab in the middle of the knee cap) on the corner/edge of the desk...I already had a really bad bruise on the shin of the same leg from running into the dishwasher door over a week ago...and it's really ouchy

</div><div>You're so right. I really am SO bitter. I can't help it. It's just that that bastard screwed me out of literally thousands of dollars, which I could have spent paying down student loans, on my wedding, on a down payment for a house, or hell, even buying pretty shoes. I could have taken another job offer (I had several) and I didn't because he promised me the hours and never delivered. And I'm PISSED!

Pouty about job stuff, too. Specifically because my school apparently didn't get the memo that I changed course catalogues a while ago so they think I still need to take something that I DON'T, and I can't get this straightened out until my advisor comes back in late August/September. Which means I can't have my degree til then. Which means I can't get an actual JOB until then.

ekathleen684 · July 2010

I'm pretty sure everyone I deal with at my school are incompetent idiots. Every semester they screw me over in one way or another. I'm pretty sure I am ready for fall but I'm sure they'rll pull the rug from me before September.

I'm not really pouty, I just want a day off so I can sleep all day with no distractions.
