*follows you* :mcglee:

Isn't the word for thinking women should be better than men 'misandry'?

*crosses fingers for Kyle to find a better job*
What the heck happened with your utilities to make them cost that much? D:

@Raine: Aww, man, that really sucks! ;A; In Poland they always tell you they will call you either way, but I've had quite a few job interviews (not nearly enough though, but still) and only one or two places informed me they got someone else. It's so rude when they don't and it pisses me off ;/
So in my head, (I'm sorry) neither will let you know, since it's been two weeks. But maybe they still have the recruitment going on? Sometimes it really lasts long. Did they tell you in how long they'd call to inform you he got or didn't get the job?
I remember at first I took it slow with sending my applications for jobs, but when I didn't get much response, I just applied everywhere, and suddenly my phone was ringing every two days or so XD So maybe Kyle could try sending 100+ applications. More chance of getting an interview. And the more interview you have (and fail) the better you become at dealing with them. I've been told (also on an interview, one of the two that informed me I didn't get it, they were super friendly) you get less stressed after your 5th job interview, then it kinda flows. And it did for me, I think two interviews later I got my current job :qsml:

I don't mind talking about our life problems, it's good to let it out :qcute: Besides, it's your thread and I'm complaining about everything always, so I'd be a super mean person to tell you 'shove your problems, it's mem time, listen to me!' XD

Yeah, that kind of too, with owning anything. Although I think it's about my ever present feeling of guilt... And I don't have it to that big an extent as you. My bf almost. He's so guilty about buying himself stuff, even food. Sometimes I have to 'bark' at him so he would buy himself something -.- For me it's mostly hating to be in the center of someone's attention and wanting to be invisible ^^

Yeah, I believe we do use different programs, so I won't bother you :qsml: But you're my first choice if I get frustrated, mind you xD

That's a relief, I was scared I'm just a bad person for being rude inside, but I guess it's normal for awfully shy people? XD I think it might be the stress of being around other people we don't want to be around :qstr: Just a thought.
Awww, Raine the Ice Queen! I don't know why, but that's super cute XD
Yeah, sometimes bf's step-dad comes into our room, since he puts all their laundry in our closet (don't ask, they're weird, and he rarely knocks, I think he once walked in on us and is slowly learning to knock from then on XD) and I always feel like 'don't you have some other place to put your dirty clothes? do you really have no other place? such a big apartment? privacy please? just get out already!'. But I think bf is the same, we just usually watch something on his laptop, then his step-dad walks in and bf just pauses everything and even opens a new page on the Internet, like he's ashamed of what we're watching. Or when he's playing a game with friends, he tenses up and even may mess up a team fight or something. Then he's all pissed at dad xD

@KimiLavender: Probably, but perjoratively I'll stick to femi-nazis XD

Aww thank you for the positivity ;u; Still no luck, but really every positive thought helps I think. He's going to apply to a bunch more places tonight. He just did another 10 yesterday.
I'm running out of places for him to apply. I'll have to look around at other types of jobs because there's like no other call center stuff around here. :(

For the ones we are still waiting on, they never gave us a day exactly. But they should be recruiting until march so we think they might be waiting to decide once they have more applications. (cause he is good at interviews and said it went super well).

Today we have such weird weather.. Or lately even. It was like 80f outside yesterday and it was hot again today (apparently it was hotter here than in hawaii yesterday?! and it's February in the mountains lolol). I was literally outside an hour ago and I was sweating. But.... tonight it's supposed to snow. XD

@ Mem- OMG! I'd die if my dad walked into my room without knocking. But I live in a pretty nice sized house so there is no reason for him to. Plus I don't even have a closet. But since my bf and I have the whole basement to ourselves we do see people coming down to use the toilet or the washer/dryer. (or sometimes my mom to grab things from the spare room that is full of junk).
But never to my personal bedroom! Ahhhh you poor thing. I'm glad he's started knocking at least O__O

I understand your bf though. Even if I am not doing anything bad/weird that I have to hide I just don't want anyone to see what I do in my personal time. That is for me, not them. ;p

Diversification may be good actually. Unless he just really likes/is really good at this call center stuff. then it's a huge bummer XnX

Well, if they are supposed to be recruiting until March, then maybe there's some hope :qcute: I cross my fingers for it.

Awww, I wish we had some warmer weather. It's strong arctic wind all week in here, my throat is already sore :qsob: And it's a tragedy if it's additionally snowing :qd:

Well, we don't really have any choice. It's just an apartment. Although I really don't understand why step-dad is keeping their laundry in the closet in our room... He's got plenty of space everywhere and it wouldn't hurt him to buy a basket for dirty laundry :qsweat:
Yesterday I felt especially unwelcome in the place though. I wanted to (finally!) depilate, but my epilator is pretty loud. So I went to one of the bathrooms for better light and reduction of the sound. (Story time! Step-dad once walked in to our room while I was depilating because 'he wanted to know what the sound was'. Thanks for caring if maybe you'll see me half naked, thank you man :qstr: ) Anyways, halfway through, bf asked me to come to the room because he wanted to show me something and talk. Meanwhile step-dad walked to the bathroom, then (no knocking) came to the room and asked me to clean after myself because 'he wants to brush his teeth'. 3pm. I'm halfway through. And an hour before me he himself clipped his nails and DIDN'T clean it up. He always does that, they are everywhere for weeks. Disgusting. Of course I did clean up after my half done epilation, but he didn't even walk into the bathroom afterwards (mean excuses are mean). I felt so unwanted I finished depilating in our room (he also walked in without knowcking, eff yeah), forcing bf into earphones.
And yeah, I just realized he only learned how to knocl for a sort period of time. I don't recall him knock for the past two weeks at least. I gues old habits die hard. Plus he opens the door so loudly and suddenly, I always jump :qd:
I just want to have my own place already, I'm so tired of all this.
Sorry, ranting again :qsweat:

Yeah, I totally get it. I don't really like to show people what I'm doing either XD

Yeah the only problem with looking at other types of jobs is that the only ones I know of that he can get are like fast-food or retail or grocery. And all of those pay like minimum wage. We need him to be making at least $13/hr.. not like $10/hr =_=

And anything else I can think of requires college degrees for. So he is unable to even apply. (he did apply to a few that let him despite not having the degree, but I doubt they'll call back).

The weather was like summer yesterday. But then within like 2 hours it was so cold and windy. I expect to look outside this morning and see frost. I've been putting it off because I am secretly hoping it'll still be warm. ^^;

Aww man. D: I could not live with that little privacy. I am so sorry you have to deal with that. @_@ Just let a girl do her grooming things! We need space! ;A;
And of course boys are like 'clean up after yourself' while almost never cleaning up after themselves. =_= My house is always so dirty and disgusting because I am the only girl and I refuse to clean up all their mess. They leave trash all over the counters in the kitchen. Plus food bowls and plates with old food on them. I am just glad THEY do the dishes. (though they put it off until it is out of control and we are eating out of tupperware. sometimes I cave in and clean it all because it's stressful.)

I cleaned up actually like 2-3 days ago. Everything was washed, except a few pots. Counters were scrubbed (it took me like an hour to scrub all the stuck on food). And then by the end of the day it was trashed again. Couldn't even tell. =_=
My brother is supposed to do dishes, because my dad works and I do all the cooking. (and usually my bf works too). But my brother gets lazy a lot and then tries to pull the 'well YOU guys never do dishes' act. Like duh..?? that is your job??? we all have one???

Good news tho I heard him cleaning this morning ;u; So I might reward him and make him breakfast <3

OMG THO. WHYY?? why come in your room without knocking?! has he not learned?! ;A; *pat pat* I am sorry your privacy is basically non-existent. r.i.p. mem's privacy. </3 :mccry:

Aw, man! ;A; That's so bad... :mcsweat:

Keep faith, sometimes they are crazy/desperate enough to call :qhehe: I know some employers don't even care about the degrees, just prove you have the abilities. But I don't know what Kyle is good at...

Yeah, I'd be hoping that, too, if I were you :mclaugh:

It's been like that for years now. First we lived with my grandma. Nightmare, for both of us, but bf felt really out of place. Now we live with his step-dad and it's again really troublesome, in some aspects even more so than at granny's. At least she somehow respected our privacy. Here it's kind of quieter (not much tho, step-dad has a habit of turning the tv on and pretty loudly and then leaving it on while he goes out of the room/apartment -.-), but less privacy.
About two days ago we were just hanging out in the mall and bf (really, I'm serious, he said it first! o.O) said he wished we would be doing some shopping for our own apartment right now (we were looking at kitchen stuff and some tea service). I was like :mcargh:
At least my bf is kind clean, he hates having a mess around him, so he cleans after himself rather neatly.
Gosh, I would freak out in a dirty house like yours. I mean I'm not super neat myself, I can be even messy (just in my own room tho), but kitchen and bathroom just have to be clean. Otherwise lol nope, I'm outta here. So I understand if you cave sometimes, I would, too :qlol:

OMG, your brother! :qd: I don't even, I would smack him most probably for acting like that, lol. I'm glad he did some cleaning today, good for you guys ^^

I have no idea! It's unacceptable for me, you never know when he'll just barge into the room in his underpants and a shirt only and ask you if you have thread and a needle! :qd: #justrandomstuff #learnhowtoknock
I guess he just learned to knock for a short while after he walked in on us, then just went back to his old habit. He acts like he owns the place, while he's renting places all his life. And it' snot like he never had the opportunity to buy an apartment or even a house. And not just one opportunity like that, but at least three. He blew it, cause he was greedy.
And, may I rant some more? I just found my mug in the cupboard, with food stuck to it. And I clearly remember putting that mug back to the dishwasher (I hate this thing!) BECAUSE it was still dirty about a MONTH ago. And how did my mug (still dirty) got into the cupborad with the 'clean' mugs? OMG, disgusting, unthoughtful, outraging! GRRR! :mcangry: I already hid my own tea spoon so no one would use it and put it to that dishwasher that doesn't wash properly. I guess I'll have to do the same with my mugs. I can't go on like this. :qsob:
RIP my privacy + clean dishes ... #internal_scream

So sorry about ranting so much today, I just can't even... you know... *cries internally because bf can't see her cry*
I'm kind of glad we'll have to move out of here in June/July. I'm not even as worried as I was before.

Yeah I am hoping someone is that desperate. It's hard to find a job here lately because a lot of people are coming to live here (since they legalized weed it's been like a flood of people).

Kyle is really good at call center jobs. When he was at the really good one he was ranked like top 5 in the nation for sales. They just ended up screwing him over and nitpicking just to fire him. (I think the higher ups were pressured to fire someone as an example and they picked him. :( )

Oh boy. ;A; I'm sorry your living situations are so rough. I can deal with mess a little, but privacy is huge for me. I need to have somewhere to be alone.

Ahahah I find dirty dishes all the time. My brother's gf was so stupid with dishes. I always rinse mine out so they're not so dirty when they go into the dishwasher, but she'd see that there's not tons of food and just put it away. So lazy. I've had to pull like 6 glasses from the cabinet because of her. =_= The other day I found a bowl that had food all over it that was stuck under another bowl that looked semi-clean. She must have assumed they were fine for some reason? I can't even grasp how she decides what is clean.

...like if it is not in the cabinet it is dirty...??? why is she so confused??

Aww I hope you can shop for your own apartment soon ;_; sounds like you guys need some privacy.

Ohh don't worry about ranting today ;~; I don't mind at all <3

They legalized weed in there? When? I don't even know what's going on in the world anymore! QAQ #bornignorant But gosh, ppl are so simple XD

Man, that's nasty. I hate when thye treat you like shit even though you give them everything you can :mcangry: But wow, top 5 that's huge! Too bad there's no job in that right now. Although I find it weird, every second job in here is call center -.-

Me too, but what else can I do than just nod politely and stay quiet? ;___; Few more months and we'll be outta here anyways, so I just have to suck it up and then either we go to my mom for a short period while searching for some place, or we just rent something on our own, which will probably be a slight (or big) throwback. Unless we'll be able to save enough to start searching soon. But rushing with purchase of an apartment? Nu-uh, I don't think so.
I kinda hope my boss would hire Asherin. It's bigger money than what he gets now, although he likes his curent job, there's no perspective in there. The company's policy is to have small % of people on employment contracts and the rest on mandate contracts. No matter how good you are. And Ash is super good at everything he's worked so far. That way we would save up more until June/July.

Yeah, I don't know why ppl don't rinse the dishes before putting them into dishwasher, it's not hard and the machine can't handle everything. Some ppl are so lazy/stupid. I still rather doing the dishes myself.

I hope so, too. We're both on the verge of our nerves and patience. Lately I've been thinking 'I just want to be finally home'. I mean home as in my own place where no one criticises us, we can do and eat whatever we want, whenever we want. Where we could invite some friends over. Just be finally free and on our own, you know? With our own rules and no restrictions. We're so sick of tip-toeing around someone's apartment.

Yeah, I'm having a rant day. Earlier step-dad was out and I found that dirty mug and I just began cussing my ass of in the kitchen, like screaming it all out :qoops: My soul hurts living with other people for so long, I'm freaking out :qsob: Do you know we're living here for over 6 months and step-dad won't even make another pair of keys? Just this Friday Ash was almost late for work because dad was out without his keys and his daughter also forgot her keys. So we had to wait for her to come back and take them from us. And whenever we want to go out somewhere, we have to ask if someone's leaving the house that day too, when, for how long will they be gone etc. So troublesome and inconvenient. Plus it wouldn't hurt him to make us a spare key, his lady will be moving in this summer, that's why we have to leave. So I really see no problem :qsweat: (yeah, see? rant day :qsweat: :qsweat: :qsweat: )

Btw, I love your avi ;u;

UGH my head hurts. I've been dealing with a huge art theft problem. @_@

ahaha yes they legalized weed here a few years ago I think? Or last year? I can't remember since I don't smoke it.

yeah I was really upset about it. he did so much for them and he really loved working there. the people who actually knew him wanted to keep him so bad, but it went way over their heads to people who never met him. ;_;
He's at an interview right now. I am soooo hopeful because it's the kind of job he wants. ;u; wish us luck!

there are a lot of call center jobs here. He's applied to well over 50 of them. But only a few got back and then there were a lot that weren't even hiring so he wasn't able to apply. @_@

Aww D: Well I look forward to you being able to move out. Hopefully you can get you own place sooner rather than later! It really sounds like you guys need some peace!

And yes! Just rinse the dishes for like 2 seconds and everything is 1000% easier! >A<

Wow that's so dumb. It seems like it'd be a lot less trouble to just make you keys? I mean it'd benefit everyone if they just caved in. How silly. :(
And how stressful. I've been in the situation of not having a key before. I ended up having to sit in front of my house for like 5 hours waiting for someone to come home.

awwww thank you! ;u; I love yours too <333

I'm so mad for you about the art theft. I can't understand people, I really can't!

Just got home from taking Siffy, my cat, to the vet. She just needed a check up and a yearly shot. She has a pimple! Lol..so cute. Sadie, my puppy, is in heat so I made an appointment for her to be fixed in April. Charlie isn't losing his mind this time over her being in heat thank goodness. That drove us all crazy last time with Cami.

I hope you guys are doing okay. Things seem to be getting better for me. Not so sick all the time and my mental state seems to be much better too and that's a really good news. I think working on my art has helped so much. I have several pieces i've half started or gotten stuck with. I've realized that I don't understand shading so i'm trying to get the hang of it. I have two pieces that are done except for bg's that I want to add galaxies to but can't figure out how to go about it very well. I can't just make dots with my surface because it doesn't pick them up and if I hold down for long it doesn't make a mark, it just does like a color picker? I dunno?

Anyhow! Happy Late Valentine's Day!

I hope Kyle get's that job, Raine!
