i am so gods-be-damned tired of people who whine and whine and whine and BITCH at you when you try to be nice...
said friend has been bitching about a job she hates for over a year... been wanting to quit, being a brat at work so they want her to go... so i've been trying to be supportive & helpful & encourage her to find a new job for OVER A YEAR!!!
we have a chat once how she gave her work a list of all the things she does & how much she thinks it will cost them to replace her... i asked her if she was TRYING to get fired & she got mad. she wants my opinion about it & i mention that attitude plays into this. at which point she glares at me & states 'my attitude is not going to change at a new job - my attitude is my attitude'... and i point out that she then shouldn't expect to KEEP a job terribly long with that kind of attitude... and she gets pissed because she asks my opinion & i tell her the truth.
NOTE: IF YOU WANT ME TO LIE TO YOU - TELL ME UP FRONT WHAT YOU WANT ME TO SAY, HOW TO SAY IT (HELL, SCRIPT IT FOR ME SO I CAN MEMORIZE IT)... DO NOT GET PISSED AT ME FOR OFFERING HONEST OPINION AND ADVICE
at one point she tells me someone told her to find a good paying job that doesn't require much in the take-home department (meaning you don't constantly fret about it after work)... like tile-laying, massage therapy... at this point i recommend banking because at least THAT has advancement opportunity. and i get snapped at that i'm 'not being helpful' and 'not giving personalized advice & it sounds like you just aren't trying to be helpful' and 'thanks for the suggestion of another dead end job'... um, yeah, and tile-laying is something that you really can advance. to what, Senior Tile Layer? Advanced Tile Layer? fuck you...
so her work then tells her she is gonna get fired... and she finds this wonderful perfect-for-her job... applies... goes to another job interview just to keep looking. is offered said job. turns it down (without knowing if perfect job is hers or not)... gets another call from them & turns them down again. calls me freaking out about this. asks me if she's 'spoiled' for turning down a job that's not her perfect job... then finds out the perfect job isn't hers. then gets fired...
so all this lovely-ness happens.... AND THEN...
she's job hunting... keeps sending me texts about her interviews (while i'm at WORK)... sends me today 'got offered 15/hr in w.seattle'... so, after work today i send her another text & ask about the w seattle thing... she tells me it's the 15 and she didnt' want it... its a job she's applied for already and turned down... so, as per above conversation, i teasingly called her spoiled & asked if she has other offers going on... and she gets all pissy about how she's not really in the mood for this right now....
so i told her she can just stop texting me about her job hunt if she doesn't want to talk to me about it... that i was tired of getting my head bitten off everytime i open my mouth about her & jobs... SO i've probably just lost a friend but i'm sick and tired of hearing all this shit....
