Everytime I am feeling down, I always think of someone that has it worse that me. That usually snaps me out it and if it doesn't then a box of oreos surely will.

Finally home from work dayum 10 hours is a long shift.

Ok my boss got totally ridiculous today. My desk is cleared off and I will work 2 waitress jobs before I sell another yard of carpet for his company. This weekend will be sprucing up my resume and Monday will be job hunting.

If I dont vent somewhere I will burst so here goes, please tell me if I am over reacting. I am on the sales floor today with one other guy. It was my 'up'....the door dinger is broken and I did not hear the door. A customer had come in and had walked oh maybe 30 feet into the store. I get up and walk 1/2 way to them and the boss shouts from near his office door 'Jackie' and he's motioning for me to come to him. Ok so I look at my coworker who is now also on his feet and he nods he will go to the customer and I head over to the boss thinking something is important.

He says 'Are you going to wait on them?' "I was on my way there..." I said. 'Why is Jerry waiting on them?' "um cuz you called me over HERE!"

He throws up his hands, growls and walks away from me. #######...I didn't see another customer for HOURS. The lady that hired me and runs his store was standing right behind him and said nothing to me the rest of the day. Now she is on vacation for a week. Another salesman is on vacation next week....I feel so guilty if I don't go in. (damn I hate being a responsible adult)

I look at it this way...he could not find anything all week to yell at me about, so he picked the lamest azz reason he could find. They pay me nothing. I work draw against commission. I only MAKE them money. I deserve to be treated civil, I don't care if he is having a bad day. There needs to be a buffer between him and the employees. They are screwed cuz business is down but dayum he can't take it out on the people that DO care about his business.

Life is too short to be walking on eggshells at work. I never know when he will find another reason to humiliate me in front of others. This really just started after January. We were all cool discussing The Secret and Eckert Tolie in his office in December. Now I am dirt on his shoe.

I'm done. I feel much better. I tried to tell all this to La Princessa and she said....'too busy to listen to you, human, I am preparing for Caturday.'

Sooooooo who has resume making experience? I need help.

Jax to the max

[palilover 1]

I fell asleep so I only succeeded at going to the doctor and a tiny bit of shopping as I went to get presciption filled.

ok I need to vent so read at your own risk. I have major landlord problems:/ My landlord is Morrocan/Muslim. omg this is the second Muslim landlord I have had. After the last ones, I swore I would not have another Muslim landlord because the last one (palistinian) tried to cause problems iwth me and my husband because they were jealous that I married him (for love) and not their nephew or whatever (they wanted me to marry him for money so he could get his green card and I said no freaking way). My husband earned me and still he hearns my love:)

But unfortunately the rules are here you must pass credit check to be accepted to lrent. I was looking for a palce all in Feb and all wanted credit check:( I have not had the best luck and credit cards were bad luck for me so I'm not the most cleanest person:( (although after my husband gets here I wanna change that and my next task will be to clean up after myself). So I looked on mosque website to see if there was Muslims to ernt from for the time being because muslims dont like ribba. So I found these guys. Not too hapy right now and have not been for the past 2 months.

The guy did not even clean the place at all before I moved in. The stove, I did not realize had grease all over the INSIDE of the stove til I was cooking and smoke detector went off (this was right after I moved in). So I turned everything off because I did not smell anything burning. But I waited and let it dcool off. Maybe I am not seeing something I thought so when it cooled, I ran my and over the bottom of the stove. GREASE covering! I had to clean the stove. Even now, the pilot light does not light normally and you have to manually light it and even now, there are gas smells when i cook that are so atricious I get calls from them that they smell gas. DUH they got someone to loook at the stove. I was not home so I called the landlord's wife and she asid there is still grease and that causes the pilot lights not to work. And I said where's the grease?! She aid it's inside the pilot light. I was like omg I'm having my husband deal with this. I don't feel like taking apart the stove!!!

The woman is prejudiced against me even though I havedone nothing to her. maybe it si because I am an American? Maybe it is because I am not a born Muslim? Maybe it is because I am not a hijabi like she is? I don't know. She took me to the laundromat (only after her husband told her to) because they lied to me before I moved in and said there was a laundromat near here. But the laundromat cloesd a few weeks before I moved in:( So when her husband told her to take me to the laundromat, I went with her and she hardly spoke to me the whole time. When she took me home, it was raining and I had 5 big trash bags full of laundry. I took them all out of the van and she is watching me. I had to take them 2 by 2 down the stairs and keep in mind, this is my clean laundry sitting on the dirty/wet sidewalk in rain. Do you think she offered to help? No, she started to go inside. Her kids asked me if I'd like some help. I aid sure. She immediately started screaming at them in morrocan language. I don't know what she said to her kids, but ever since that night, her kids won't even say salam to me.

Everytime she talks to me or asks me questions, she makes a face like the monster thing on the movie Scream. She pretty much treats me like I'm subhuman and gives me attitude everytime she sees me.

I have had nonstop toilet issues for the past 2 months. The husband refuses to come down and look at it. I figure he does not want to come down because he believes women are fitnah (he's a beared Muslim) but then I thought "wait, before I moved in, he took me to the train station in his car alone. Well, that was because he wanted me to sign paper with him and give him money. Now tht he's getting my money per month, he can continue being religious again I guess. He's getting his money." He'll instead send his wife down who will move something in the toilet and say it's fixed. It would work for 2 days and then break again. One day I told her why don't you just fix it? She was like "Well, didnt you see what I did? Look at me, I fixed it!" Yeah so it can break in 2 days again. The only reason a month ago they got someone to look at it was because my toilet was starting to make a noise in the walls at night. (It sounded like the thing in the woods from the tv show LOST that eats people). It kept them up at 4AM. So yep next day they called someone. It worked up until today then. Tonight after I got home from running around, I wanted to take my medicine and go straight to bed. But no. I did my business in the toilet, flushed the toilt and it all came shooting back up! I called her and I heard kids running aaround upstairs. She did not answer the phone the first 3 times. I tried to call husband on his cell phone and he did not answer. I call again and finally she answers.

This is where it gets good:/ NOT

I explain to her that the plunger that was in the bathroom is not plunging. I tell her the toilet is overflowing. I ask her if she has a mop i can borrow because I was not going to buy a mop til Monday when my paycheck came because i would spend all night Wednesday night cleaning before my husband came (hopefully). She was like "use a towel" I said no, I only have a few towels and they are all new towels and I dont even have enough towels as it is for me and him when he gets back. She kept telling me that I did not know how to plundge and kept telling me hers was same way mind was. I said no, mine won't budge because it is not rubbery enough. Finally after 10 mins of arguing with her on the phone, she said come up and I'll give you an old towel and you can try my plugner. I'm still talking to hr on thep hone. I am so angry and stressed out over this that apparently I missed the bottom step going down my stairs outside and I fell and fell directly on my finger. Now my finger is sprained:( I yelled in pain because pain shot all the way up my arm. She asked me what happene and I said I fell on my finger. Instread of asking me if I was ok, she says with snotty attitude "Well, arent' you coming up?" I was like "Um..yeah when I get up from the ground!"

She came up and I said no your plunger is not rubbery enough either. (I never seen a plunger that was stiff as a board!!) I ask her if she can drive me to Target so I can pick up a mop and plunger. I have to do my toilet mess now because I dont want the entire apartment to flood. She was like "I'm gtaking my kids to the mosque".

AUGH!!! I love how they think they can go mosque every Friday to show how goody goody they are, yet they treat me like absolute dirt.

Her husband was coming from across the street. I said to him "Your plumbing exploded." He said what? So he came down wth me and he took one look at it and ws like OMG!! He aid it is after 9 so no way can a plumber come now. He went upstairs to get a little dish bowl for me to scoop water out with. He said he will call the plumber tomorrow. He did not gie me anything to put the poopy water in though. So I scopped it out and put it in my trash can. And do you know where I put the trash can when I was done with it? Well, I did not want to throw it n the freaking yard, thats disgusting.

So this is where I got even.

they better plug their noses when they open up the big trash can outside.

Needless to say, I so CANNOT WAIT til my husband gets here!!!! No way would they be doing this to me if he was here. I saw how my husband acted with my last landlord. He stood up for me, even told me that the people were cheating me out of money (his sister was friends with my past landlord's wife so she knew all the dirt), and he was the one to fix the bat problem I had because he looked and found holes where the bat came from. The landlord was not even going to mess with it but he did.

And no way would my husband allow these people to talk condescendingly to me like they do. He would talk to the guy directly so I would not have to deal with the wife's prejudice and callous attitude.

I cannot wait for my husband to get here;(((
