Vent of the day....( Inspired by Preshi )

To my dear inconsiderate neighbors:
I know you are busy hanging out with your friends , but you must still fulfill your responsibilities and control your unruly teenage children , while you are too busy socializing , they are busy playing with their bikes on other people's properties, using the septic mounds as ramps and the driveways as speedways to fly off the ramps, they do that while the homeowner is not home but I am sure if your child falls on their property, you will have no problem suing the property owner.
Also teach your children respect, and when they are asked to leave politely , that means get out. Just because the people have this as a weekend retreat , doesn't mean your children can play on it, and eventhough I may not be the owner, the owner is my friend and I look after her property, so the next time I ask your children to leave and they ask me is this your property? , I will ask them the same thing, or I will continue to call the police like I did yesterday.
BTW, from now on my German Sheppard will be in the front of my property, let's see if your wonderful children will do the same thing they did to your neighbor across the street, slash her car tires because she complained about your kids speeding up and down the road with the dirt bikes and ATV's, and BTW, the dog bites and if they get on my property, they will be trespassing.

I've had my fill of inconsiderate teenagers as well. I actually cought one throwing rocks at my dog because she barked at them. Well duh I'd bark like crazy at you too if you threw something at me. I also have to fix my fence where they broke it.

Luckily, the unruly teens in our neighborhood left. At the end of the school year, they'd pitch a tent in their backyard and since Dad worked the graveyard shift, they'd party in the tent until dawn. Often playing music and just generally being loud throughout the night.

I asked their father if he knew what was going on, and he claimed not to, but when I asked him if he'd try to contain them a little, he said he had no power in his house to make that happen.

The next time, after Dad's apathy was shown, I started calling the police on the kids. After a few times that the cops came, the tent came down and peace returned to the neighborhood for awhile. Went back and forth for most of one summer and finally they moved. No problems since...

A very valid vent there Olga. . .

The only problem is that I was hoping we'd do most of that same stuff in the Zurg's yard next weekend. .

My vent of the day:

Dear Teenage Daughter,

I know it's summer vacation. I know you have to wake up early all during the school year. I know you are obsessed with sleeping in late, BUT do you think you could move your butt by noon? I need help washing the cat and I've given you more than enough time. It's either move now, or I WILL MOVE YOU.

Willy, Zurg invited us....so we can still do it!

GG your vent could apply to John-Cole as well,

Dear John and John-Cole,

I am very happy that the two of you decided to take up weight lifting together. Its very important for father's and their sons to bond like this. However, leaving all of the weight bench parts in the upstairs living room all over the floor is not a good idea. We have 8 cats and its not my fault if something disappears. Why did you take the thing out of the box last night if you weren't going to put it together last night? So if your missing a few screws (in your head or your weight bench) its not my problem.

To my jerk of a boss:

So sorry my father in law's chemo schedule means I need to take a day off. I am giving you the exact days and times I will work to make up the whopping 4 hours of time I would miss. Family comes first, you jerk!!!

That's funny, because my DD (17) just called me and said she is SO BORED today because since school was over (5/19), she has been so BUSY with work, volunteering, internship with an orthopedic surgeon, and online Latin classes, that today, her first day off, she doesn't know what to do with herself! LOL

I thought she'd welcome this day, but I think she's so into the daily routine of the previous month that her day off has become a burden...

To Walter Evans/Kim Evans, and the Board of Directors of the GPCC/ICOC:


Tell us what Walter is making as an annual salary.. What type of bonuses, allowances.. etc.


Why is the church budget such in shambles.. because you live in a $450,000 house! How can you do that when single moms live in tiny roach infested homes on the most tough streets of North Philadelphia! Have you ever thought that people do make less money than YOU?

Why did you lie to the congregation about

a) the camp in VA! The members knew nothing about it, until you announced the "church bought it".. excuse me, no one else knew about it! I know how much hundreds of acres are in Fredricksburg, VA.. it wasn't cheap!

b) The Special Missions Contribution, NEVER WENT TO THE POOR! It went to your salary.. you know the PA State Attorney General has a phone call in about that...

c) You live in the most affulent areas of Philadelphia, but others in your congregation have to scrape by, live on food stamps, and go to the "free" clinic you set up. How about sharing the wealth?


d) You never ever addressed the problems Jeff and I have had in the five year wer were in "your ministry".. You just looked away, when Jeff mentioned the callousness, the rudeness, adn the ignorance to our issues and problems.. YOu have never said you were sorry to us! You just looked down and held your head in shame..


Wake up and realize what you are doing to your congregation. Its not only us, but hundreds more... Please stop driving what I have loved for 13 years into the ground, for your glory.....

Dear neighbors,

We know that it is legal here to shoot off fireworks and that you are generally done by 10:00 pm, but do you have to shoot them off every night this week so close to the baby's bedroom? What could be so much fun about blowing up things for 3 hours straight for 5 days in a row? And if you laughingly make another crack about the baby not sleeping tonight I'll come over and pound on your door so you can console him at 2:00am when he's fussy, hungry, and in need of sleep!

To my darling husband:

If you didn't want your passport to get washed with the laundry, why didn't you take it out of your pants pocket??

 

[sorcerormickey]

OOOOOHHHHHHHH, I LOVE thri thread! Need it today!

To my furniture warehouse:
In the future, when I ask you to send me a patio set with x-type of chairs, and you then tell me you have it - please make sure that you do. Then, when you realize that you do not have it, the next day (my day off), are YOU going to call the customer and tell her the set is sold out with x-chairs? But, it is available with x and y-type chairs for ONLY $200 more!??!!??!!

Ahhhhhh...better now.

To my DS16:

Look it up. Our world is most definitely revolving around THE sun, not MY son.

To my brain-dead receptionists--

I don't care if corporate headquarters tells you not to turn away clients; there is a limit to what one person can do in a given amount of time. There is no way I can be in 6 exam rooms at one time, especially since there are only 3 in the clinic. So stop making promises to clients when you have no idea if it is even humanly possible. I am the one who has to rush through my day and hear the griping when they have to wait an hour after their appointed time. If you tell one more person, "the doctor will be right in" when I am in the middle of surgery, I will break your neck! And I know I'm getting chubby, but that does not mean I can work on my feet for 12 hours in a row without taking a break to eat! So stop telling people that I will see them during my lunch! If they can't take time out of their schedule to see me, I sure am not going to sacrifice my health for their convenience. And HOW oh HOW can you possibly have been a receptionist for more than 2 days without learning to take a name when someone calls. Contrary to popular belief, I do not remember each of the 500 patients I see each month. I will have to read their medical record, which means I need to know their NAME-- YES, including the last name.

To my slow nurse--
I know you are just watching the clock and waiting for your time to leave, but there are things that need to get DONE here. If you are more interested in milking the clock than helping pets, you should go get a job as an office peon.

AARRRRGGGHHH!!!!!

Dear Doctor,

Just because the other woman in the office has been here for 15 years, and I a measly 3, please explain how it is her business how many vacation, sick, personal days I receive. She is Part Time, I am Full Time. Why oh why must you tell her and then tell me "she has been here for 15 years, she has the right to know..."Do managers from large corporations pull you in their office and then make announcements to the rest of the employees?? "So and so took an extra break"? No they don't. You are the Doctor/owner/manager of a business, keep the business to yourself.
Out with the bad air, in with the good, repeat if necessary...

I feel so much better now...

 

[goofymom23]

I hate my job! The good old boy system sucks.

 

[goofy370]

I hate my job too.....
