OMG, I hate applying for jobs...

number55 · April 2011

I have to write a cover letter tonight and I hate writing cover letters...I much prefer just the interview...

I also hate doing dishes. And cleaning the inside of my car (outside is fine though). I hate hanging paintings, especially if I have more than one to do, as in a set. I hate folding and putting away laundry.

But mostly I hate writing cover letters...

What kind of things do you hate doing?

ps: Cew, does anyone read cover letters?

avsfan33 · April 2011

I hate applying for jobs too. I hate going to school and I hate working. Actually, I hate working in customer service. I hate when I call a department for a price and they don't respond. Thanks a lot it's me who gets yelled at by the customer, not you.

I don't mind doing laundry but I hate putting it away. I also hate that I probably need to buy a new dryer.

Nebb · April 2011

I hate watching what I eat and working out and not losing weight.

pixiedust84 · April 2011

I agree - I don't like writing cover letters! It's always walking a fine line between humble and OMG I'm awesome!!!

When will you know about your job?

I hate dusting! I also hate showering - not the actual shower but the whole process. It takes so long and I hate that you have to do it (almost) every day.

<div>OMG...you know what sucks even more...watching what you eat, working out, barely losing weight, then spending the whole weekend eating what-ever-the-fuck-you-want and gaining back the little weight you did lose, thus undoing all that you had sacrificed and sweat previously.

And me. Evening, yesterday, I decided "fukit!" and ate a small bag of chips, then I had most of one of those thin crust oven pizzas for lunch today.

Steph0871 · April 2011

I hate waiting to hear back from a seller after putting in an offer on a house!

I hate cover letters, too.

SarahPLiz · April 2011

I hate cleaning, period, but I did ok at it yesterday.

I also HATE decorating. I just have no sense of what I want where or what looks good together. We had all of our art just sitting in the baby's room and had to move it, so I made DH hang some of it up. I had no idea what to do with it. Some of it needs to be reframed, though, because gold is not my fave. But I have no idea what to frame it in. DH will have to do that also.

number55 · April 2011

Pixie: job apps for this round are due by Tuesday. And technically they need to be filled by Friday...except Friday is Good Friday...which means that they would theoretically need to be filled by Thursday...except there is no the principals will be able to get interviews set up, completed and references checked by Thursday...it just isn't possible. So I figure I will know if I have an interview by Tuesday evening/Wednesday morning, and then I have no idea. Either way an interview is going to interfere with my training schedule, which blows, but such is life. I REALLY want the job so it's worth it in the end (if I get it). I also hope I get it because if I do it means I don't have to apply to any other jobs...I hate this process but I don't really want to stay in my role next year if I don't have to.

That was a really long answer to a fairly simple question. Sorry.

katiewhompus · April 2011

I hate cover letters
I hate the taste of plain greek yogurt and that it still has 7g of sugar but you can't taste any delicious sugary sweetness.
I hate...um..I think that's about it for now.

Oh, and folding the laundry. I don't know why I hate it but I do.

kimheartsscott · April 2011

I hate writing papers. I spent the last two hours watching Sherlock Holmes and looking up recipes because I'm getting sick of our usual food. No progress on the papers, but we are making meatballs tonight. Woo?

Steph0871 · April 2011

I hate SNOW in APRIL. wtf, mother nature. NOT cool, not cool.

I hate Mondays.

I'm so happy I'm not the only one. And I only wash my hair 2 -3 times a week, but I hate the process.

I also hate ironing. We hang the clothes that have to be ironed on the hall doorknob, when you cant open the door anymore it's time to iron. I just got through ironing 12 dress shirts. If I never do it again it will be too soon.

Nebb · April 2011

I hate the dumb thought processes that go through my head. I was inspecting my garlic today and I could see a spikey looking dodads coming out of the dirt, and my first thought was that the dirt was somehow pushing the garlic cloves out of it and that it obviously needed to be pushed back in

I always think the most asinine things before logic kicks in.

It makes me more annoyed because I have to get in 3 servings/exchanges of milk a day, but I hate milk, and yogurt is the only other substitute I can get since cheeses count as protein and not milk. Blah milk. I'm really hoping that my dietician says Almond milk counts as milk since Rice and Soy milks both count. I can deal with unsweetened almond milk.
