Venting thread.

[(Anonymous)]

For all your venting needs, large or small.

Re: Venting thread.

I'm so burned out from being the full time therapist for friends and family. I love them but it's constant and I'm at the point where I start lacking empathy because I just have very little left to give. Especially since I rarely get any back.
I'm even half-jokingly considering getting some qualifications to at least get some money out of it doing it for other people but I know that would probably backfire.

I have to travel back to my hometown this weekend and there's a family member I've gone low contact with who I won't be seeing. Which is what I prefer - I don't want to see or talk to them, because I haven't forgiven them for something they said over the holidays. But. There's a slim (but not zero) chance I'll run into them when I'm back in town, and avoiding lengthy conversation is difficult.

Even if I don't run into them, I'll be constantly looking over my shoulder and being mad about it, mad about the things they said and did and mad that it's spoiling my day and pissing me off. I know this is letting someone live rent-free in my head and I also know they're probably oblivious (or in deep denial, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference) about the offense they caused and that also pisses me off.

One of the plants in my bedroom stinks like weed, especially in the morning when sunlight hits it and I absolutely hate it. I put it in a different room over night and hope it'll not be as bad but ugh, I actually really like that plant.

So tired of "buzzwords" and people repeatedly misusing terms that have specific definitions and are used within specific contexts.

From "everyone's a narcissist" because they did something I don't like to using "word salad" to describe something that the average joe might not understand without full context. And don't get me started on "gaslighting." JUST STOP IT.

Re: Venting thread.

I've always hated the corporate jargon that pops up in presentations with people clearly not understanding what the words meant. For a while there, 'creating synergy' and 'a new paradigm' were in everything. Those are still there, but have been overtaken by things like, 'core competency', 'start a dialogue', and 'actionable insights' which are just as eyeroll-worthy, just as meaningless, and just as expected. I understand why they get used - because upper management seems to think that if you use these magic words, everything will seem more professional and polished, but they make me feel like it's a pantomime of work that we need to get through to get to the actual work.

Re: Venting thread.

Ughh, the over- and incorrect use of gaslighting is just getting way out of control. It grated so bad on me when it first got popular, but now pretty much anything and everything is gaslighting and I hate it.

Maybe I need it today.

Genuinely tired of well everything but most of all of how we are all supposed to be born preprogrammed now and like, there's no training in jobs anymore, every intern needs to be 20 with 10 years of experience, there's barely time and energy to like study and learn things properly - you do something in record time and someone will complain that you weren't 3 seconds quicker. And Lord forbid you are sick and slower tomorrow. I'm on my period so I feel absolutely sick & defeated, every month I have to feel like poo because I was born female as if that wasn't poo enough, I'm buying a product and took a while to answer (because I was fucking stuck in the toilet with cramps but I wouldn't explain that) and people have no tolerance lmao I am buying your secondhand product how evil do you have to be to pressure me into doing it quicker I am REALLY fucking DONE with EVERYONE who acts like this.
