Things You Are Not Stoked On

[hufs calve muscles]

I collapsed last night from a panic attack and my shoulder is tweaked. I slept in my truck last night and had to take a final feeling butcher shop raw this morning at 0730. I've got one more major essay to submit Wednesday morning accompanied by a test at the same 0730 block. I was really looking forward to shredding more soon at the end of the semester but housing is looking like it is going to take priority over the next few weeks. I have this theory that when life gets really good for a while it backs up the shit drain, breaking loose at the worst possible time. Or maybe it is just my perception of being pampered with the ease of life when a fuck up noticeable enough to disrupt it slightly happens I put more emphasis on it that need be.

Thus, this thread.

Man that's a serious panic attack! Damn. Be well homie.

I have an insane amount of work at my job during christmas, and this year is probably a hundred times worse than last year.

fucking peebles, they are evil incarnated on earth !

[ChuckRamone]

The two people who sit near me at work that are constantly talking. One is overdramatic and the other mumbles incoherently. STFU!

im at the complete opposite end of that spectrum. pretty much everyone in charge checks out mid december and pushes everything off until january. i basically sit at my desk for 8 hours doing absolutely nothing. its now 1pm and ive been here since 8:30. i havent done one thing and cant even remember if im logged on to our server. my task list for today is wait for my client to send me a job (she hasn't yet) and plan some things for a meeting thats supposed to happen on thursday. i already took care of that last week.

im not complaining. just stating how boring and meaningless my job is during this time of year.

I have it like that during summer, when everyone is on vacation and shit. I work as a eshop manager/sales specialist/whatever else needs to be done, and we specialize in videogames, gaming accessories and shit like that, pretty much everything young kids want for christmas these years. But at least a christmas bonus will be nice.

I'm really bored by/just over doing my menial admin assistant desk job. My superiors sometimes treat me shittily for no reason, the work is just so uninspiring, and I feel stuck in a rut. I serve tables on Fridays and Saturdays, and they just offered me full time shifts there. The plusses are that I'd be on a more similar schedule to my girlfriend who is a bartender, the money there is decent, there'd be plenty of flexibility schedule wise, the commute is shorter, I enjoy being able to be myself around my coworkers, and it would be easier to schedule future interviews for other 9-5 type jobs. The negatives are that I'd be giving up my health insurance, the pay wouldn't be quite as reliable, the overall pay would be slightly lower on average, and this could be a bad look on my resume down the line.

I told them I was interested in the shifts, but then was talking it over with the gf last night and decided maybe it's not the best idea for me. Now I have no idea what to do. I'm supposed to meet with my manager of the weekend gig today after work to talk about the shifts. I'm bummed that I'd be going back on my word by turning the shifts down now, but the prospect of giving up the relative stability of a 9-5 scares me. Then again, not doing something just because it scares me is kind of shitty too.

This is so insignificant compared to most things posted here/most other things in life, but it's got me stressed out. Thanks for taking the time to read me venting.

TL;DR: day job is boring and demeaning, night job is volatile, the future is uncertain, I'm being indecisive.

Got part of my scalp removed yesterday (cancer...you know that kind nobody cares about). Stitches and 10 staples later...my head hurts like fuck today.

[20matar]

Yikes. Skin cancer? If yes, you're sadly right, no one cares about it until they have it. I really should, a good chunk of my family has/had it and I just don't take enough care of my skin and sometimes I feel too lazy to brace myself against sun exposure. My mother describes her growths as having a deep, rooted-like sharp pain. Was that the case with you? Best wishes on your recovery.

Damn dude that's heavy, hope everything works out for you, can't imagine what going through that's like.

[the snake]

my stupid hardcore christian neighbors think it's ok to make there dog live outside when it is below freezing. and it barks non stop...thinking

Compassion for all sentient beings yo!
Also straight, wow! You okay bro?

[layzieyez]

Stay up straight. Glad they took care of that stuff.

[straight]

Thanks for the kind words. But I shoulda been more clear. It's basal cell carcinoma, which I believe is the most common cancer in humans and supposedly not very serious. Anyways I feel way better today.

Best of luck to you. A good friend of mine is battling stage 3 inflammatory breast cancer.

Just go for it! You got nothing to lose i guess. I regret being shy with women for the most of my life but then i said fuck it and now i'm with my long time crush for 1 year and 2months.

Just got home for the holidays and I've got the fucking flu.

[shit_for_brains]

Just got home for the holidays and I've got the fucking flu.

My wife conveniently gets sick as fuck every time we go see her family, so she sleeps the whole time and I have to hang out with these waspy motherfuckers who built their own white enclave in the 40s and never left.

I ate shit earlier, doing a regular ass noseslide on a regular ass ledge, and bounced my chin off the ground. Man does it hurt.

I only get sick once every couple years but I'm positive this is from the bespectacled and ear ringed troglodyte who coughed on me for my entire flight after bitching that I had my skateboard in the over head. 

[shark tits]

well cancel christmas! does this mean you're canceling our skate date at the orchard park? lemme know how long you're in mass for. it's sposedta be warm a few days this wk, if ya start feeling better maybe we can hit the streets for relief. hope ya feel better just so ya don't waste a trip being sick. hope we can meet up and i can lace you w/ something of rusty's. i've still got 5 or so decks and tons of hoodies and lotsa wheels plus random stuff like for tagging.

My son got roseola and then passed it on to me (because apparently I never caught it as a kid). Not his fault cuz one of the kids at his kindy gave it to him, but FUCK the rash on my fingers hurts

[Nick..]

One of my former roommates who I lived with the past two years up until this year was diagnosed with cancer recently, he started his first round of chemo last week. Fuck cancer.

[brycickle]

Agreed, fuck cancer. Went to a benefit for a friend today who has stage 3 breast cancer.
