I hate joining a new guild [mmo]. I mean, I like being in a guild and all, it's just the whole having to slowly work your way into the group part I hate.

Sadly, only choice I have since this is a new game and no one I know plays it.

Wildstar?

I need to look for one myself...Especially when it comes to dungeons. Cause I dunno if the guys who made this game will adopt the "find a dungeon/flashpoint" thing at all, so...

OP

Yup! I've actually found a pretty nice guild. It's just the whole "getting used to it/new group" thing I hate.

What server are you on? Want to come hang out with me in-game? I can pm you my in-game name if you'd like.

Dad. Yelling "stop that" "don't do that" "shut up" etc over and over again at the dogs does not work! Monty's mostly deaf, and has never listened to you anyway. Zara's also never listened to you (we seem to have this knack for picking female-responsive dogs, lol). Dodge is too full of energy to sit still and quiet for any length of time; you do remember what Lady was like as a puppy, right? When she used to play with Brandy, how much chaos they caused? Well now it's one old, mellow dog, one adult-who-thinks-she's-a-puppy and one actual puppy. Of course they're going to play loudly and messily.

all my friends got new friends and new interests and I still have the same old boring ones so all my friends are hanging out with their new friends instead and I hardly get to hear from them anymore and I'm lonely and sad and they are happy without me. boo hoo. :(

There's a seat that I've been sitting in for the first 8 weeks of classes, and the last couple times I've gotten to class, someone's been sitting in it, and saving the other seat for her friend, meaning I have to go sit somewhere else. Getting there earlier isn't an option, because I have a class right before then.

I know it's stupid, but it's like, seriously? I've been there the whole term, and now you're going to start sitting here?

TBF, they are the nice seats, but still! And I can't sit elsewhere in the nice seats, because there's a group of people who sit in the middle section of nice seats and save the entire row for their friends.

I know it's stupid, since we're not in middle school anymore, but it is mildly annoying.

I don't think that's stupid. I think most people would consider that common classroom courtesy.

I really agree, but I think people are kind of divided on this. I'm with Inkdust though, it's courtesy to not move around and take seats other people are used to using. I kinda wish people would just pick a seat and stick to it, but I guess some people think that's unrealistic/rude to wish for

I had someone do that to me once, saying that she was short she needed it!...never mind I sit in the front because I'm hard of hearing [and this was a subject I'm very, very weak in.] According to her shortness was more important than my actually being able to hear.

Best part? The seat she was in before was *also* in the front row. So she gained nothing by switching, but I ended up next to two people who would not shut up and made it very hard for me to hear.

tl;dr: Ugh, that is annoying...and I agree with everyone above: It's common curtsy not to mess with the seating once it's set/if the person actually needs that seat.

I hate having a body. It's gross and malfunctions all the time for no obvious reason, and everything pleasant about it is bad for it. I with I could be disembodied.

Why don't you find a way to kill yourself and find out if you can be disembodied?

I finished my tasks around the office, and as usual, I asked around for something to do. One of my superiors almost said no as usual, then switched it to maybe. There were some files she needed scanned, and she'd been putting it off because they were oddly shaped and needed to be scanned one by one.

She'd been letting the pile grow without interruption since last June.

I don't mind the work, but I really would have liked to hear about this sooner. It would have been a lot more manageable.

That sucks! I have a similar story. There's a task I'm currently doing for myself and sometimes parts of my team (software development). It gets exponentially more difficult the longer it's left alone, and apparently nobody saw fit to tell me that nothing has been properly done ... like ever.

When I boot up the software, I see all the things I've done for the team, but going back all the way to 2012, people just haven't done it. And now it's a huge mess that's super difficult to trace back.

I kind of want to write a piece of software to get me a result sheet I can use to foist this issue off on other people, but I don't think my bosses will actually pay me for this.

Where I work, there's three locations, and I overheard a coworker being asked if she'd be willing to work at Location C. She got really hostile and was all "no, I would NOT be willing."

Why are so many people my age under the impression it's okay to respond like that? Had I been the supervisor, I would've said "actually, it's been decided it's mandatory, so you have to go. Sorry." This is why people call our generation entitled, guys. Stop proving them right.

Yeah... if it's inconvenient/out of their way to work at Location C I could see saying something like, "I'd really rather not if possible, it's quite out of my way/inconvenient to get to for me." but to get hostile over something like that and to respond rudely seems a bit... like she needs a smack upside the head.

There's some huge life-changing stuff I'm going to have to make a decision about soon and it's causing me non-stop stress and anxiety. I just don't know what I want, and I'm afraid that no matter what decision I make I'm going to disappoint someone I care about.

Also, I'm really, really tired of being so weird. I feel like an outsider no matter what the situation or context and I hate it. I just want to be like everyone else and I don't know how.

Annnnnnd I'm annoyed that I don't get as much time off work as I used to and I'm only making a tiny bit more money. I guess I should be happy I even have a job with the way the economy is, though.

This is more of a moment of faint amusement, but it's still annoying because I've been unemployed for over 3 months. I applied for a customer service representative position for a major health insurance company. I wasn't selected, and here's a couple choice lines from the rejection email: "Unfortunately, we will not be able to consider you for this position at this time. Although your skills and qualifications are impressive, we have identified other candidates whose experience more closely fit the specifications of the position." I love corporate backhanded compliments. < /sarcasm > Don't get me wrong. I'm glad they had the decency to let me know I'm no longer being considered, but it's still a strange thing to see in my inbox and doesn't quite help me figure out how to be employed for them (which I'd be willing to go for since the people I've interacted with in the interview process for other roles are pretty cordial, and the HR department at this point does not make me want to kick puppies).

I hate how laundromats always have an equal number of washers and dryers or more washers than dryers, when they really should have more dryers. Drying a load takes longer than washing it and when the laundromat is busy, everyone gets stacked up waiting for a dryer.

My aunt shared a (poorly constructed) Excel chart on charity spending from WorldTruth.TV's Facebook page. I've been researching the information in the chart and so far haven't found much that supports the information provided. I'm getting really sick of people I know sharing (potentially) false information on social media. That goes double for people who've graduated college. Hell, my aunt is a tenured English professor. I don't consider that an excuse, though. I graduated with a BA in English but do independent study in the natural sciences. Frankly, I'm appalled that an educated woman did not fully comprehend what was in that chart when reading it. That disturbs me a lot, and it actually makes me very angry.

Re: Gripe Thread: One-sided relationships

[personal profile] silverr 2014-06-03 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I am very very very tired of one-sided relationships, both IRL and fandom.

Granted, I tend toward doormat, but I also don't feel I should have to ASK not to be taken for granted. (I'm certainly not looking for a perfectly balanced equation, but some degree of reciprocity would really be welcome.)
