Current Mixed Feelings

Why bother with any other forum?

We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.

Human morphine is epic. If kitty morphine is the same, plus you are a cat covered in lovely furry fur with plenty of just laying there while somebody strokes you, then I imagine it's pretty fucking amaze-balls!!!!

I think I just went to my happy place.

Everything is kinda sweeeeeeeeet when you are a cat anyways, with the added bonus of knowing you are really pissing off Goiter just by existing.

Cats can be all right. I'm more annoyed by certain kinds of cat owners than I am by cats.

Asked for and received a meeting at 1:00 today with the manager of the part time job. (She who communicates like a 13 year old)

My hope is to get firm resolution as to whether or not I still have a job there and how many hours per month I can expect. I'm awfully nervous about it, but it'll be good to get some certainty.

Is " firm resolution as to whether or not I still have a job" some kind of code for oral sex?

I wish.

In the space of a week I've gone from seeing a sign advertising the hiring of someone for part time weekends (my job.) Traditionally, there's only one part timer. I texted my boss and twice asked point blank if I'm being replaced. The answers were "lol" and "haha." I walked in the next morning, asked her to her face, she said no. I felt better.

Monday of this week, I realized she had unfriended me on Facebook. No big deal to me, but a major deal to someone with the mentality of a 13 year old. Tuesday I got an email informing me they'd be closed Sundays effective next weekend. That's half my hours. Plus they're still hiring someone else. I asked in a brief email if I'd still have every Saturday. That email got deleted. I asked again, more forcefully, and got a "I'm going to double check that with upper management and get back to you."

I thanked her and asked if there were any issues with my job performance which we needed to discuss. That email also got deleted. I texted a coworker, involving her enough to let the manager know that I'm furious with her for the poor communication and would like to schedule a meeting in person. I immediately got a reply to that trashed email snarkily asking that I come directly to her if I have such questions. (Which, again, I fucking DID a full 24 hours prior.) We arrange a meeting at 1 PM. I'm much more nervous about it now at 11:08 AM than I was at 5:30 yesterday.

But still. This can't go on. I need resolution and have done NOTHING wrong that they've told me about, so this kind of treatment is shitty at best.

Well, damn.

Don't give up on the possibility of oral sex--especially if this person is communicating like a thirteen-year-old. I have this strong feeling you're going to stop getting blown off and start getting blown. If you're being replaced, that's probably why. Your boss may not want to mix business with pleasure. Yeah. That's gotta be it. Maybe.

I mean, don't go in *assuming* you're going to get a blowjob, but don't go in assuming you're *not* going to get a blowjob.

"If you're unhappy, you know you don't have to work here, right? We aren't forcing you to stay."

"You do send a lot of emails." FOUR. I SENT FOUR.

Everything got blamed on my coworker.

Unreal. Let the job hunt begin in full force.

That's great and all, but . . . what about the blowjob?

Damn. Was she just passive-aggressively trying to get you to quit just so she wouldn't have to fire you directly?

Correct. She was nervous the entire time I was talking to her. HATES confrontation and having simple, direct conversations. She didn't come out and say it, but I'm basically not to speak to her unless spoken to. I walked out of there, deleted her number from my phone and just thought "my fucking pleasure."

I'm relieved I had the conversation, but my goodness. The woman's a train wreck of a manager. Absolute disaster.

Thanks. I agree. I'm there one day a week, she's never there on that day. I'll find something else and hopefully fairly quickly.

What kind of company is it? What services do they provide? It sounds like they suck ass at it.

They don't suck ass, Hicks. They suck dicks. We already established this.

So you are suggesting that Adam is getting pushed out of part-time job at a dick sucking company, presumably because he's no good at sucking dick. Yet at the same time Adam thinks he's good at it, but feels like he hasn't given it a fair shake.

Or, he's amazing at sucking dick on the weekend and is making those around him jealous. So much so that they would go through a lengthy, costly, HR hiring process to replace him.

These are Goiters words, not mine.

You have a way of saying what I mean to say better than I could ever say it.
