Painting. I hate everything about it. And of course I had to pick a very dark color so I'm gonna have to do a second coat and hope that's good enough. Next time I paint anything, I'm having my nephews help. I bet they'd do it if I bribed them with pizza lol

 

I love painting

 

When people use delicious to describe anything other than food/beverages

 

My mom is starting to reach that age where I worry about her getting her identity or accounts stolen.

She has a Costco membership and apparently today, in the app, she had to answer questions to confirm it was her.

One question asked her what city a random street was in - not the street she lived on or has ever lived on.

Second question asked her what color her make and model of car was. She has never had any oil changes or anything done at Costco (don’t even know if that’s a thing) and nothing in her account has that info listed. Doesn’t it seem odd that Costco would know this? And it wasn’t phrased as “what color is your car?” It asked what color her Make/Model was. It irritated me that she answered and doesn’t see it as a big deal but either someone is selling info to companies or something seems off to me. Has anyone ever been asked that by any company other than a vehicle maintenance business?

 

Sounds like someone doesn't wish to live...deliciously

 

The only exception

 

Who are you, Black Phillip?

 

getting sweetener in your coffee after asking for it to be unsweetened

 

When people are late to work calls/meetings. My boss is 13 mins late to my call so far and I'm just chilling with my headset on haha.

Probably not his fault though, looks like he's wrapped up in another meeting.

 

When people think they can get you to change a company policy or make an exception for them if they ask enough times

 

That in Chicago, there are overhead heaters at our train stops that are switched on during late fall and typically shut off at the end of March, but the weather isn’t consistently warm here until, like, mid-May.

 

We have this new girl at the front desk who been here for a few months but still doesn’t do things correct. The amount of times I brought something to her attention and it’s not corrected. Also keeps double booking the schedule so bad that we run behind and go home late all the time. On top of that my manager rushes me to get things done in a non ideal amount of time. She also doesn’t listen to what I have to say. It’s really frustrating. This has happened to my previous co worker. The same thing. Like I’m so ready to leave. I have to get a few things together first and I’m hopefully gonna start that this weekend

 

When there’s a show I really want to watch, but it’s on a streaming service that I don’t want to watch anything else on. I’m not paying $10/month for one show, but I have bad FOMO now

 

worth waiting for the show to finish and just binge it in 1 month

 

Yeah, that’s my idea

 

This is me with Showtime. I’m basically just paying to watch Yellowjackets

 

That was about to be me, but my in-laws told me they have it haha

 

My bathroom is an absolute disaster. My shower has glass doors. I hated them and wanted them gone but last night I went to get a shower. The doors kept coming off the track as always so as I was trying to fix them, the entire top rail fell off and both doors basically fell on me. Turns out the rail was just laying on top and the doors weren't even in the track right at all. So I took them out which let me tell you, not easy to do that by yourself!! They are HEAVY and I was basically trapped in the shower lmao I had to try to support 2 doors and get the top rail out of the way and I was afraid one of the doors would fall and I'd have glass everywhere. I somehow managed it. So I had to go to my mom's and get a shower until I get a shower curtain. Cut to this morning. It's hotter outside then I expected so I went to wear shorts. Realized I haven't shaved my legs in forever so I decide I should do that. Realize oh yeah, no shower doors. A normal shower that wouldn't be a problem. But my shower even if you are just trying to draw water, water still comes out the shower head and gets everywhere! So then I had to shave my legs using just my sink. But my sink is partially clogged and just brushing your teeth fills it up with water. So now I have a sink full of water, a shower I can't use, and I'm exhausted and it's not even 11 a.m.

 

Jesus, Jams. That's rough!

 

Needing to make an account or download an app for almost everything

 

The stupid “slams laptop shut until Monday” meme that’s all over instagram.

 

people who treat the waitstaff badly and/or don’t tip well (or at all)

 

that’s probably like the fifth time I’ve said something like that in this thread but it’s true

 

This. My grandparents were guilty of this and always so confused why they were getting food poisoning all the time lol.
