Why politicians make me wanna scream (vent)

I sure hope I can! Today has been a bad one. Getting dinged on reports for things I shouldn't. I have sent more than 5 emails to various QA people about things they are changing on my reports that shouldn't be changed. But that's not my major gripe. My boyfriend and I have been together for over a year now, and have recently moved in together. He is going through a nasty situation with his ex regarding custody of the children, etc. It has been going ...

This doesn't really require advice, but just a vent. I had written about two weeks ago regarding problems my daughter was having with her boyfriend of 7 months. Well, he just broke up with her two days ago after he invited her to his prom this Saturday and after she invited him to hers (they had talked and decided to still be a couple about a week or so ago). She is devastated. She won't eat, she's crying all the time. To make a long story short, he j ...

I'm sorry I just need to get this off my chest. I really only have one good friend, and she has her own troubles, so here goes... Last night, my husband's computer broke. He thought it was the video card, so we ordered a replacement for about $230. This morning, the computer is completely dead, won't even power up at all, so obviously more than the video card, which has already shipped, so I'll have to wait until it gets here, ship it back and get the refund minus the $ ...

I am posting this here because I know most of you have worked on-site in offices at some point in your lives and I wanted some feedback regarding something that happened in my office. I used to work as an MT and now I'm in a medical records office with about 10 or so coworkers. Most of the ladies are nice but there are a couple who like to stir up trouble and one who is a nosy-body and tattletale. I'm in my 60s, single and happy with my status, not really interested i ...

Hey all, I will try to keep this brief. My question first and then the reasons behind it. Has anybody out there in their life ever just picked up, cut ties and disappeared to some place else? Men and women have done it, but women less, I think. Now for the vent/reasons I ask, I like a lot of people now am having it very, very hard. I won't bore you will all of it, but financially, job-wise, vehicle-wise, love life-wise, I am just a mess. I would love to ...

To make a long story short ... I have to see a specialist today as I have been having some medical problems. This appointment has been scheduled for almost 3 weeks during which time I have asked my DH on several occasions if he would go with me, each time he states that he will. Today, however, when he remembers that I have the appointment he "innocently" asked me if I needed for him to go, going on to state that he has a lot around the house that he needs to do. This has hurt ...

Okay, so I have a neighbor who is unemployed. I know this cos he and his other half are always having screaming shouting matches and she yells he doesn't work and doesn't contribute, doesn't drive, eats her food, smokes, won't even watch "her kid", blah, blah, blah. So..what does he do? He goes and gets himself a motorcycle. So he has no license to drive it and it sits there in the yard (not their parking area, but their back yard that faces our back yard) a ...

Are there any frequent movers out there? I have become so disolutioned that I'm just upset. We moved into a neighborhood quite a few years ago and with the economy saw many changes. We've watched one neighbor grow up and thank goodness he got his license because now he doesn't sit around and have all his friends there (won't even go into the bahavior and language they used to display - I'm just thankful he's not there anymore). But now there ...

So, my DIL and son have been married 5 years. My son is in the service and they had the good fortune to have been stationed in DIL's hometown for the whole time they have been together. Her whole family is there and have been a great source of support when my son has been deployed. I had opportunities to visit and thanked them for being supportive of him when he was gone. 6 months ago they were stationed one state away from me, 3 hours away. DIL was super ...

First time a budget was passed on time BUT he wouldn't sign it until he got the "little" extras he was asking for in amendments. Sort of like blackmail. Threats were made about layoffs and unpaid state workers....well, in this budget, he cut Medicaid funding, library funding, firefighter funding and more. He is still talking about laying off some workers and he's "sorry about that but at least PA residents don't get a tax hike." First, the extras adding items arelike: ...

Wutta mutt. She also visited an early voting site today. I thought that was illegal, but hey...with the Clinton ANYTHING GOES. ...

I am sitting here so depressed. I have two adult daughters and five grandkids. My oldest daughter is a widow (her husband was killed in Afghanistan in 2005) with two kids. She is a professional photographer. She took a picture of my other daughter and her kids which I fell in love with and when I asked her if I could have one, she said the price is $80 (black and white, 8 x 10). Needless to say with my lowly wages as a transcriptionist I could not afford it. She has become miss high and mighty e ...

when they interview the thug's family why they never ask them what do you think about your chile being filmed stomping on a new car and ripping paint off of it. All we get is I lay in bed and hug his teddy bear and know I will not see him graduate college. He was a wonderful person. Of course any parent would be sad, that is not news. ...

Is there an increase in child abuse lately? Have I just become more aware of it since I have 2 toddler grandkids, or is it just that the media is covering it more. I saw where a 7-year-old girl was locked in a cold attic for months for bedwetting by her grandmother. She was beaten and starved. She had chunks of bald spots on her head from having her hair ripped out. She had a broken foot. The grandmother said she was raising her grandchildren and was "doing th ...

I recently talked to a young man who got married in December 2012. They keep mentioning they never got to be newlyweds. I am sorry but i dont understand - they got a 1 week honeymoon, came home to their own apartment, then 3 months ago decided to move back in with his parents to "save money, pay off bills, and get a fresh start" Ummm you only been married 9 months - and one of you came into the relationship with bad credit - these are young people 25 and 26. Now living wi ...

I've been reading this board, and it seems that those who support Pres Obama feel that he is not responsible for much, as it would seem with all of the recent stories hitting the news sites. His primary voice seems to eminate around the equality being nonexistence. Exactly what message does that send? I am a normal individual and it sends the message to me is we are an unfair country, we offer no opportunity to any minority. Apparently it has sent the sam ...

Every year at Christmas my hubby is able to take two weeks off, which is wonderful for him but is beginning to stink for me. By the time his vacation is over I will be extremely resentful towards him and I hate that. In years past he has always done everything he can to help me out while I am working, cleaning the house, wrapping presents, picking up little odd and end gifts, etc. However, this year all he has done is lay on the couch and sleep after sleeping until 11:00 every ...

Just a vent, frustrated at one my younger daugher's troop leaders. They have a goal of 170 boxes per girl to sell. Generally if she gets 30 boxes on her own we are lucky I drive them to all the neighbors (14), and hit up grandparents (have agreement with siblings not to bug them with this sort of stuff), and we sell about 60 boxes that way. But.I have two daughers in two different troops. So I take them out soliciting here and they split the sales.&nb ...

Thank heavens, no children in their 11 years, but his ex won't leave him alone. She's constantly calling him wanting money or furniture, or just to hassle him. She had taken everything out of the home they once lived in and he only wound up with a kitchen table and chairs. That's it. Now she wants that back. He's going to do it hoping she will get off his back. BTW, she used to hit him when they would fight. He came over one day with red marks all over his ch ...

kidnappings, economic terrorism, etc, etc, yet that has not stopped whiners from reporting and successfully extracting censorship of those terms. That renders those arguments below moot. Turnabout is fair play, so see if you like how it feels to wear a muzzle every time you get up on this forum. ...

I read this this morning, posted on a chat site. Author unknown. Here is how the typical press interview with your average GOP Politician goes. Reporter: "Governor (or whatever), what concerns you about America today? GOP Politician: "I am very concerned about the plight of the poor and middle class in America today." Reporter: "So you support two years of free community college for poor and middle class students?" GOP Politician: "Oh no!" Reporter: "Oh, do you support raising t ...

If you're disgusted by politicians, or the "power class" - hang on half a second. You can't blame grabbers for grabbing power. It's the most predictable of human traits. The most fundamental premise of DEMOCRACY is that the electorate will hold ALL POLITICIANS, REGARDLESS OF PARTY, in check. It's citizens who don't give a crap about TRUTH and instead let the PARTY TELL THEM WHAT TO THINK who are to blame for the political situation that we find ourselves i ...

Looking forward to spring and not trying to look into the future with Trump or the ugly mess career politicians have gotten us in selling their votes to special interest groups. I come here and I see the same old thing - arguing on behalf of millionaires and crooks who do not give a care about us. ...
