It's Time for the Airing of Grievances!

GoldenPenguin · December 2014

I've seen this on a couple other boards that I lurk on, and I think we should do it to. What/who do you have issues with right now?

AlPacina · December 2014

On the board? Or just in general?

GoldenPenguin · December 2014

Both!

BF's brother is a cockass. I don't like him and his mysogonistic egotistical attitude. Good news is, I think I have him fooled. But I really wish he had never moved up here. I have issues with the fact that he wants BF and me in on his holiday proposal, because neither of us approve of his relationship.

I am SO SICK of one of the friend group GFs. Her BF is awesome. She is selfish and terrible. She kept telling people how she couldn't get pregnant, and then as soon as her and her BF are having problems, BAM, she gets pregnant with their "miracle baby". And now she's talking about having another one. SMH. BF and I have decided that her BF isn't cool enough to warrant dealing with her pretty much ever anymore.

@GoldenPenguin - You got everything that I wanted in 2014. Bitch! :P

I am pissed at lunch. It is not yet in my belly.

CLoGreenEyes · December 2014

I am already terrified of this thread.

But I have no grievances with anybody on this board; y'all rock my socks.

MsSparky · December 2014

It's that time of the month, so I'm extra irritated with everyone it seems.

My major irritation is my staff getting to think they dictate their schedules. I'm really good about being flexible, but at the end of the day, I'm in charge of scheduling and making sure we have enough coverage. You don't get to just tell me when you are and aren't going to work.

Also irritated with my staff for being flat out disrespectful to me one day this week. We sat down and talked about it and my staff member flat out told me "you're wrong". Without going into all the details, this was not something I was wrong on, and even if I were, it's not something you get to say to your supervisor. Sometimes being so much younger than my staff bites me in the butt. We also had a discussion about how inappropriate that was and how there are other ways to make your opinion known.

Also, I've had a cold/cough since Thanksgiving, so I'm aggravated with my immune system right now.

[Deleted User] · December 2014

I'm pissed with DH's stepsister, she is a child. She throws temper tantrums at everything and she is freaking 33. Apparently she was pissed at us over Thanksgiving because she realized that she wasn't in any of our family pictures at our wedding a year ago....took her long enough to voice this opinion. It's not our fault anyways that she ran to the bar immediately after the ceremony and missed the photos. Now she doesn't want us in her pictures lol. Boo fucking Hoo.

I am not surprised at all that everything in this thread is about off-board things

[Deleted User] · December 2014

I don't like it when Knottie3490826509742659742564 make posts. I have no idea who they are and I will never know because another Knottie36492756496 will post right after them and I'll just group them together like you would food groups. I also wish people would choose avatars besides the ones that TK automatically give you.

This is more of an Irrational irritation but it's something that occurs on the board that annoys me.

speakeasy14 · December 2014

I agree with @southernpeach89. I lump all of the knottie0189357428472 as one person.

I have big issues with my orthopedist. When I asked him how come he never showed me an xray or told me what I broke, he blamed me. Actually had the nerve to tell me that I was in so much pain that I didn't pay attention. I then repeated what he told me three months ago "I have (well had) two hairline fractures that could not be seen with an xray because they are internal where the foot & ankle meet." Then he apologized and told me that I broke my talus bone and apologized for not being thorough enough with his diagnosis. Next injury I will not be returning to his office.

GoldenPenguin · December 2014

You guys are boring.

KeptInStitches · December 2014

Holy cow, for the first time that I can remember I have no grievances.

What's wrong with me?

Swazzle · December 2014

Every time @eilis1228 posts, it's the longest post in the history of the world.

GoldenPenguin · December 2014

Every time someone posts something long, they apologize to @swazzle. That's more annoying than the long post.

Swazzle · December 2014

I found it very difficult to be happy and excited for @Phira knowing that she wanted to postpone her wedding due to major, major red flags in her relationship shortly before. I still worry about her a lot.

peekaboo2011 · December 2014

I'm with @Swazzle. I wasn't officially around the board for all of that, but I did hear about it and read most of it like a creepy lurker. I'm definitely still worried about @phira based on all that happened.

GoldenPenguin · December 2014

@CocobellaF's lack of capitalization at the beginning of a sentence actually makes my head want to explode. I don't care about the "it's just the interwebzzzzz" - it's ridiculous, because it's evident that you know where the shift key is located. I feel like more effort goes into NOT capitalizing the first letter of sentences because you know it drives several of us absolutely bonkers.

phira · December 2014

I actually am ... glad? that people are still looking out for me, so I'm not really all OMG YOU GUYS EVERYTHING'S FINE STOP. Things did get very rocky, and a lot of wedding stuff only got resolved because the wedding happened and is now over. I'm always going to remember that I almost ended my engagement, which is a sad thing in a lot of ways.

I'm irritated at the doctor I made an appointment for H to see. He is having a bit of a medical issue and we don't know what is causing it (it doesn't help that H is a bit of a hypochondriac...which he fully admits and tries to control). Before looking at the issue on H (just based on H describing it to him) the doctor said it could be one of three things...one of which was FREAKING CANCER. First, it isn't cancer and looks nothing like cancer, which the good doc would have (and did with 90% certainty) noted AFTER he looked at it and, second, H is freaked about cancer so I spent the entire night reassuring H that it wasn't cancer and the good doc's 10% possibility was more like .000001%. Then he tells H to see a specialist but no one is available or a month+. That doc is seriously on my shit list right now.

GoldenPenguin · December 2014

@minskat30 - What is it with doctors just throwing the "C" word about all willy nilly lately!?!? I'd be seriously irritated too.

Swazzle · December 2014

I hate "grandunits", "parentals", "bossman", and when people refer to a family member without using the word "my" first (ie: MY mom, MY granddad, etc).

My little sister calls ours "parentals" or, more often, "the parental units". I want to punch her every time she uses the latter. They deserve so much more respect than that.

Swazzle · December 2014

@phira - It just makes me sad that it seemed like you lost your voice about the whole thing when you had legit concerns and he was calling all of the shots.

Damn, on the same wavelength today, @Swazzle.

I seriously wanted to inflict bodily harm on the "good doc"...H has been paranoid about getting cancer or having a heart attack (the men in his family live to the ripe old age of 60 and under) and he was really upset. Once the doc saw it he was all "oh, that's not cancer" but the damage was done.

I believe that's called Sisserbrainz?

phira · December 2014

@swazzle One of the most irritating things about the timing of everything was that I had to decide between getting shit finished in time for the wedding, and "being right." (I put "being right" in quotation marks because that's not exactly what I mean, but right now, with not-enough-coffee in me and limited time to post, it's the best I can come up with). One thing we're working on in therapy together is how to resolve conflicts when his OCD is a factor, so that I can still be sensitive to his needs and the fact that he does have a mental illness, but I don't have to sacrifice my own needs for his all the fucking time.

minskat30 · December 2014

@Phira - I'm really glad you guys are still in therapy. I worry about you often as well and hope for your happiness.
