Trouble Dump

I'm still waiting for an article about some WI substitute teacher who choked out some smart ass student who didn't put their cellphone away.

So ...should I consider that as a threat?

Our FedEx guy seems to think delivering in the hills on Saturdays is an optional part of his job. Now I have to spend most likely hours on the phone with some sand nigger to file a complaint and a claim for the box of perishable food that was supposed to be delivered Saturday and is now on track for Tuesday. Typical union fuck.

Except Fed Ex drivers aren't unionized.

So much for the free market eh? USPS would have that shizzle there on time.

Yeah, I forgot that. They're "contractors." Which means when you talk to the manager of your local center, about all they can say is, "You'll have to file a complaint at the corporate level. They aren't my employees."

Anyway, apparently this guy was legitimately sick and is a different contractor than the lying fuck face who didn't deliver (but claimed he attempted delivery) last time. I have to say, FedEx complaint reps were a lot more responsive than I expected. Probably because they're American employees of FedEx, and not some Hindu script zombie with some ridiculous white guy name.

I think the driver is upset with me now. He wouldn't look me in the eye when he dropped something off a couple days ago.

[Deputy Nutz]

I wasn't feeling good.

[SkinBasket]

Fuck, you buy something an the fucking faggots selling it to you act like they're doing you a favor. Now they're making excuses why they can't deliver it and I'm just about ready to allow the cracks in my veneer of patience to spread unchecked. I don't like getting angry at people, but these fucking morons need a knee to the nuts. Or new jobs.

[Deputy Nutz]

Does your voice squeak when you get mad?

[SkinBasket]

I usually remain too calm, almost comatose, and if anything just stop responding, which makes for awkward phone exchanges. I cut off all emotion when having these conversations, but it's exhausting because I literally detest these people who don't live up to their obligation in even the simplest ways, then act like they're working very hard to make you happy. Cunts.

[mraynrand]

If you depend on others, you will be disappointed with increasing frequency.

[SkinBasket]

That's why I hate buying things that I can't just take with me. Seems they tend to forget about you the second you leave.

[SkinBasket]

It's hot. I have to check our perimeter woven wire fence for damage so the cows and donkey won't go on the gay guy's lawn. And I'm out of milk, and only have a couple hours before the eclipse.

[HowardRoark]

I have arthritis in both knees now. Fuck

I think I do too. At least my right one. Have always been able to run; have been running half marathons up
Until a couple years ago. Started running in June again and now can barely use right leg. Been loading up on ibuprofen lately. Was hiking 8 mile days last week up and down canyons at Zion and Grand Canyon...so maybe it's not arthritis. Just need to lose weight

I got a nail in a tire on my 2016 Elantra Sunday. I went to change it, checked the spare, and found out they don't put a spare tire in the car, just an air compresser - tricky foreigners. It worked fine, though - filled it up and drove it, filled it up again in the driveway Monday before getting it plugged. And it saved me a sore back from undoing the lug nuts. I guess if it had been a blow out or otherwise damaged beyond holding air, I'd have been screwed.
