The not happy thread

Sorry Lav, but that is funny as hell!

 

WHY do people think that just because some moron like me is cleaning their hotel room means that they can leave it as an absolute shi!thole?!

Atleast two of the rooms had UNFLUSHED toilets. It's disgusting.

 

@ Lav: I can totally imagine how irritating that must be! How on earth did she get that job?!

 

The saddest part is: She's worked here longer than me. And she STILL doesn't understand the basic logic of our job. The only reason she hasn't been sacked is because she's extremely friendly, has never missed a day of work, etc. etc. etc.

 

You're a maid Ash?

BTW ugghhh.

 

Yeah, I've done the same job before but it was at another hotel - I started this one today.

No cute maid outfits i'm afraid....just a very hot and bothered Ashleigh cleaning some nasty guest's toilet and finding some girl's lacey nightdress caught up in their dirty sheets

 

Ok ... gross. Am I the only one who tries to clean up before housekeeping arrives?

 

Thank god. So do I! I mean how hard is it to flush a toilet?! as if they wouldn't at home! AND it'd be nice if they folded their towels and propped them on top of the toilet or something...rather than leaving them all wet and strewn across the floor.

 

I have to agree. Whether anyone means to or not, it seems a lot of the time that people use their problems as a crutch or excuse. Depression is manageable, if not defeatable, if you want it to be. It's like overcoming shyness (or, to make it more relatable, a social phobia, which is common) --You cant be pushed in --you yourself have to dive. You will never know how great you are if you tell yourself you're not.

I hope Steve can start conquering his issues, 'Mina. I get the feeling that it's not any particular job that he's not qualified for --I imagine he's totally competent... it's just his blasted self esteem and negative views toward himself. And I get the feeling that you're doing everything you can for him.
As someone who's been the depressed and someone who still lives with others who are depressed, I have to say it's a lot harder to watch someone suffer than to be suffering.

Robert, I have to echo Ashleigh here... This seems like one of those situations where it's absolutely hilarious --if it's not you who has to deal with it. Is there any hope for improvement with this girl?

Ash, yick! I try to clean up for housekeeping too... I figure it's just rude not to, and it's the mess I made in the first place.

I'm a bit miffed, though not nearly "unhappy," about the fact that I just had to cancel all of my plans this weekend because "mother says so," and if I even ask why, I'll be taking the sheet of anger and then cleaning up her tears. --That's another thing --I'm tired of mothering my mother.

 

^ Thanks Merc, they'll apreciate it lol. Some people are just so inconsiderate...makes me maaaaad.

 

My 25 yearold brother - in - law forgets to flush all the time.

I should be allowed to kill him.

 

When I take over, you will be legally allowed to, if not obliged to.

 

^ Lmao.

GRRR my sims 3 just crashed. Ugh how annoying. I hate it when games crash for no reason....

Me: 'Why do they suck so much, Lord?'

*God comes out of clouds*

God: 'Because you pay them to, Ashleigh.'

Me: 'Ah...'

 

I completely agree. It's one thing when you're only responsible for yourself and it's a completely different situation when you have a household you need to contribute to.

 

I will only say that as you get older things become less black and white.

 

I can understand being nervous about a new job, especially if you feel you may not be completely qualified, but if someone is willing to interview you and then decides to hire you, then obviously it means they see some potential in you. Training is always available if you need to learn how to do something.

I hope things work out ok, 'Mina.

Wow, that stinks! When I was in high school, I'm pretty sure our sports teams were required to have their sport as the last hour of the day and then they had practice right after. Much easier for everyone, I think.

I echo what Rumpole said. And also hope you feel better.

Your explanation of that made me laugh.

Sorry you've got to put up with that. We've got some pretty incompetent people where I work, and it can be incredibly frustrating working with them, so I feel for you!

I always clean up before housekeeping comes in to do it. The idea of someone else having to clean up after me makes me really uncomfortable.

My sympathies, Ash! I will never understand people who think "oh, they have people to clean up, that means I can be a disgusting slob!" Ugh.

That sounds frustrating. Sorry, Merc!

We were playing scrabble the whole time.

 

For the eighth or so time since I bought it just under two years ago, my computer has failed to the point I need to have it repaired. And now I am stuck using my laptop, which has a hard drive so small it can fit less than half my music collection. Combined with my dog barking loudly all night so that I can't sleep, and I am less than pleased at the moment.

 

Good lord! I would be frustrated as all hell. Sorry.

I would just like to say that I find it a bit selfish for a person to say "If we're together and I'm driving, I won't drink, but when I'm out alone, it's my choice whether I drink or not."

Alright, fine, it's your choice. But please keep in mind while you're making this choice that if something happens and you get in a car accident because drinking was oh so important to you, it's not just your life that is being effected. You give up the right to say "It's my life, I get to choose" when you decide you want to marry someone. It's not just your life anymore.

^ somebody's clearly unhappy because I pushed her into the pit.

 

I'm unhappy because I thought I was going to have the night off, and then..."sigh"...was called in for four hours. Such the bummer.

 

It did make me a little sad.

I hate it when that happens! You have my sympathies.

 

Sorry. *pushes Mamma joel into the pit and throws lotion down after her*

 

I'll get the hose! WOOT!

 

That's better.

 

*grumbles* Put the f!ckin dawwwg in the baaaashket.
