Random one liner vents!

Ok, I was just wondering to myself why 1) Pammy Pancakes spelled my name wrong, and 2) why she hated me until I reread that and saw RICE, not RIS.

<~ idiot
 
Ooh! Did a random-one-liner-vent at my car dealership coz they fixed my window six months ago, and they are gonna fix my car for me on Friday under warranty!

Random-one-liner-vents rock! I had thought I might have to threaten crohnie poop in their showroom but it never came to it!

My luck is surely changing!

double posting lishy!!!! that must be bad.

please say your car isnt a volvo. i am so glad my car (trevour) isnt one of them.
 
No idea why I keep getting double posts?? I think I have a flaky connection and it cuts in and out and then tries again??

My car is a VW Beetle Soft Top - I love it, limited edition flint grey with a red roof and red leather seats with fancy red alloy wheels - never been a car person but the day I saw this car I thought I was going to dissolve in a puddl eof my own drool! Unfortunately it has a boot smaller than a bimbo's handbag, is not cheap to run or repair, and due to a prior sharting incident it's unsafe to use the heated seats(!).... May have to sell it though - times are hard to be driving around in your dream car!

Aw Lishy that is too bad!!! I have a blue one with black top and black seats and I *LOVE* it. I had to part ways with it and go back to my BAT (Big Ass Truck) when my daughter started driving - so it is hers now - but I still LOVE to drive it - that is a fun car!! My Mom had one when my twin and I were growing up - we drove from the East coast of the US to the West coast in that car when my sis and I were 5 (the three of us) and I just have the fondest memories of that trip! Funny how things seem so much bigger when you were little - I thought that car was HUGE :O)
 
Why is it every single time I find this GREAT product for my hair that tames the curls, a year later they stop making it!!! Grrrrr.....
 
Hey Peaches, I hear ya, that happens to me all the time, so now I try not to stick to one thing, buy what is on sale lol.
 
Oh Peaches your curls are AWESOME!!! They shouldn't need taming at all!

My vent is why do doctors have to make everything so damned HARD??!! if you are uneducated and don't do your own research you'd never get treated for anything, or at least not the right thing! (unless you are dying of course)
 
AMEN Pirate (and Shaz - ain't that the truth)!!

Why oh why can't I have two little cocktails without feeling like crap the next day? Maybe I just need more practice...hmmmm
 
The price of gas here is high but Diesel is usually 10 a litre different, but oil for our furnace...ouch havent had it filled since Nov (have a HE stove thank goodness) and waiting for the price to come down...

Oopsies!!!! See..now you are on a replacement quest aren't you???

My hubby is the same way - early to bed early to rise. I'm like - early to bed late to rise - doesn't mesh for some reason LOL!
 
Well my husband is a born and raised Farmer, they are up at crack of dawn... I dont want even a crack of light in my room...

Yeah the freeze hairsprays are not equal. Being a former hairdresser I know. But I refuse to pay over 20 bucks for beauty stuff that includes moisturizers...YOU cant repair your face or hair, but you can prevent. Those mascara commericals are pretty false... as in false eyelashes and the new one with a motor... now that is funny LOL.
 
I'd like to issue a very hearty F YOU to Crohns. You couldn't have picked a better day to kick my ass. You suck hard core, and I'd like you to know that. I will forever hold a grudge against you! Do you think next year we could skip my birthday? Come on ... one day a year ... *sigh*
 
Uh oh. Big uh oh. Ummm, a couple of days ago I might've just given a teeny tiny eeny weeny hand gesture to the walking ego & he has now squeaked & bitched to our manager. I showed him the hand after he yelled in my face. I've been summoned to a meeting with the ego & the manager this afternoon. No doubt I'll be back here later on, venting big time!!!!
 
One sneaky day out with the kids and you make me pay for it.... I hate my guts... I hate being stuck in bed, and scrambling for the commode every five minutes, I hate that I cant just live a normal life...

If anyone is going to the shops could you just pick me up the following:
* New Hair (Long, luscious and brown please)
* New Colon (No strictures, adhesions or blisters please)
* New Liver (In full working order please)
* New Bumhole (Not one of those special offer "burning ring of fire" ones from the curry house....

(I also hate the Ego Violetcreams.... m wishing anal blistering on the ego right now)...
 
Sorry about your bday Cris :O(

I have an idea Lishy and VC!! I'm sure walking ego's body is in perfect working order (or at least THEY think so!!) - so why don't we do a body swap of all those parts ya need Lishy and swap your crappy parts with them. I mean....I guess if the walking ego part came with the body parts we could put up with you....but at least V would get a bit of a break while he was running to the bathroom all the time! (Good luck Violet!!)
 
I am so sick of this unpredictable disease. Tonight was our first CCFC meeting of 2010 and I got the worse gas pains and bloat all night, and D like I can't remember. Tylenol #3 and gas x (yeah I know but I was in so much pain from bloat and gas).

I am still in pain, and I am pissed, sore, and feel embarrassed that I can't go to this meeting and my hubby was going to go too! I just feel so over whelmed at the moment.:depressed:

Thursday is the day for my answers to all my tests.
 
I want to know how it is possible to throw up twice as much as you've eaten??!! And then feel STARVING but best not eat anything right now! :(
 
Shaz.... and how is it possible to poop more than you consumed in the last week... EVERY 20 minutes???? I have nightmares that our pipework is going to fail... and my poop is going to start sliding out into all the flats below... and then I'll be evicted.... and forever known as the woman who pooped all over her neighbours...

Funny, for every beer I drink, I have to whiz away three.
 
Finally..... an agency calls me about a really amazing job in the city paying incredible wages (the kind that would mean I could buy my dream house, take a trip to the reunion, have some great holidays)...

It's 18 friggin months since I registered with the agency and now they call I am too sick to even haul my butt out of bed....

The timing just sucks!!!!

Well?? Don't leave us hanging!!!
 
Hey all!!!!! Quick update: Had lo00oooOOOOOng talk with manager , telling him all about the walking ego & all of the hateful stuff he's done. Manager v. supportive of me, not the ego. Not even bothered about me giving the ego a two fingered salute as he felt that the ego was behaving in a v. antagonistic manner. Am now v. smug, non - ranting Violet.
 
YEY for Violet! Do you think you can get away with escalation given that your manager is so supportive? Would a Crohnie special gift (you know what I'm talking about) on the walking ego's desk be pushing your luck? What about a nicely landed fart as you walk past, just to temporarily interrupt the ego's oxygen intake?

on the ego guy!
 
Darn you body, just when i think i'm going to get a break from the bathroom, it all starts again. :(

Shaz....I feel for you......soooo much, i'm totally there right now. I seriously thought my toilet was going to overflow....while i was still pooping, and puking into a bucket. :( I hope you feel better soon, i had no idea you were pukey!

Yay Violet, i think it's so awesome that ego finally got what was coming to him!
 
yeah, where was our shart warning?! :p
This is supposed to be a vent thread, not a "how many people can farm make shart" thread!

Sorry, I forgot. Now you have something to vent about though :tongue:
 
Oh my god... I appear to have been fired.... Just got a letter from my employer informing me that my last day of employment was 2 February...

Rude words Rude words Rude words!!!!
 
Yes!!! I can't believe it... I mean, yes I've been off sick since Nov, but I've been sending in my Docs notes... I thought it was illegal to fire someone for being sick in the Uk....?
 
It is in the US.
I'm going through my 3rd layoff now. Just remember when one door closes, another opens.
You need to get some info from your employer and sort this out. Were you on any medical leave? (FMLA here in the US)
 
Yup Farm, statutory sick pay, so been on peanuts for months...

I shall be making a call in the morning.... I can't quite believe it...
 
That sure sucks Lishy! I wasn't sure if you had resigned or not. And why send you a letter nearly 3 weeks after the fact???? B**TARDS!!!!
 
Then write.
If you were on a sick leave, I would think that you are protected. (Would be here in the US)
Sometimes the Corporate office doesn't communicate well with your actual office and these letters get sent out by mistake. If you want to keep this job I hope it is the case; if not I say good for you.
 
Love ya Farm, IMP, Shaz xxx

hey, who wants to break up fights between hormone flooded teenagers when you can write stories about your own incontinent adventures?
 
I'm sorry Lishy - that must have been quite the surprise!! Doesn't seem very legal to me, but I don't know the rules over there.....

Sorry to hear about that Lishy.
If it's any consolation, you crack me up. I think you'd be great at writing a comedic Crohn's book.
I do hope you have some recourse about the job though. Give 'em heck!
 
You're not as protected in the US as some think. FMLA is not full protection, it's a band-aid, and many employers will wait for it to run out (it's not unlimited, it covers 480 hours, and you have to have certain requirements in place, tenure, enough time while NOT sick built up, etc...), and after that, they might shaft you.

You can be fired in the US for "being sick" it's just that they won't deem it for that reason or say that "officially"...There are many ways around it. Sadly it's not so cut and dry that it equates to "I'm sick, I can't be fired"

I had to fight for my job for being sick. Even if you're eligible, you might have a HUGE battle to "prove" you're too sick to do your job, and with Crohn's it can be so mysterious that that battle can be lost. Another issue is ethics. A good employer won't try to game the system or maybe not even care if you run out of FMLA, a crappy one will exploit the first loop hole seen and have your ill ass unemployed in a snap.

I almost had to get a lawyer. Things may go downhill again, as I have about 80 hours of it left to last me for 8 months.
 
Bens is right. FMLA doesn't "protect" your job, just gives you 12 weeks unpaid time that's protected.
In NC we have "at will" employers which basically says we can lay off or fire anyone at anytime for any reason.
 
The weird thing that they do at my place (that I'm sure isn't that uncommon) Farm, is that they make you liquidate your paid time before you're unpaid for the year, meaning, that you could make it to the end of February, getting paid still and missing work most days, and have NO vacation time left for the entire year. That happened to me in 2008 and I'm down to about 60 hours for 2010 because I'm doing so crappy (hey this is the rant thread)...I am OFF all my meds now, I'm only taking Loperamide and multivitamins!!

I'm supposed to be on LDN, it's supposed to get here tomorrow (then it's a couple months before it's scheduled to work some say, although the Penn State study lasted 30 days in the scoping results for healed tissue).

And my insurance won't cover LDN (although luckily it's $44 a month) but still, it's something on top of all the bills and copays and medical debts.

Just stressing. I hate stress.
 
Its up to the employer Bens; our company makes you use 1/2 of your PTO to go along with the FMLA.
And if you get intermittent FMLA you have to use 75% of your PTO along with it.
 
All the job stuff sucks! If I have used all my sick pay/days and needed to take some time off and go back on full benefit from the govt, I'd also have to use all of my holidays as well, which is an added stress because it means when I went back I'd be without holidays again for ages. Poo.

Love the born to write about farts line Lishy - there may almost be a chapter heading in that!!!
 
Ouch Greg! it's always tense when your car needs checked and you have no idea what may be wrong. Do you guys get Warrants like we do? The car gets inspected and passed/failed for road safety every six months. Sometimes it's all go and others its really expensive, like new tyres!!!
 
I had taken my truck in to check for a coolant leak and a whining noise in the engine area and ended up with a bad water punp (warrenty), a bad rear differantial seal (warrenty), bad Idler pulley (not), 4x4 differantial fluid needed flushed and replaced, tranny flushed and filter replaced.

Thank God I had the warrenty with $100 deductible otherwise it would be over $1500 dollars.
The truck is a 2004 Dodge 4x4 quad cab with only 65,000 miles on it.
 
Oh Pirate, don't get me started on Dodge differantials and transmissions!!! Trade it in soon!!
 
My husband's Dodge (company truck)....Had the rear differentially replaced two times before He finally fixed it and the idler himself!...But, My husband loves the old Dodge duelys especially the diesels.
 
We have a Chevy...love it! But he likes those diesels...What do I know I'm just a girl....(well I do know more about cars than the average girl)
 
It's not the engines (gas/diesel) that holds the problems for dodge; just everything else. :)
 
I can't agree on the Dodge thing. Bruce's whole family drives Dodges. My moms got a jeep, Bruce has a Caliber SRT4, I have a Caliber, Bruce's stepdad has a Dodge RAM (beautiful truck... no probs), grandpa has a Dodge truck.

I was always a Chevy girl because my dad works for GM, he has a Chevy Silverado and a Corvette, I used to drive a Cavalier... liked them all.

I will say I HATE Ford. And Ford (truck) drivers are typically assholes in my neck of the woods.
 
All manufactures have issues....just look at Toyota. It just a matter preference. Just like taste in music.
