hollybrookeSo I have my crap-tastic Micron in my room now. Kevin managed to work the bugs out, so it's not so crap-tastic anymore. (It's not a slow-ass piece of junk! YAY!) And I'm all set for Hunter to do whatever he has to do to get the high-speed set up in my room. I mean, I'm paying him $30 a month for this. I should be able to have it installed by now, right?
HELL no. That selfish turd can't seem to sit down to measure how long the line he needs to hard-wire it will be. He's always got his ass in his room on his high-speed connection, or playing XBox Live, or fooling around with Jessica, or out and about with his friends. Hunter, KEEP YOUR ASS AT HOME!!!!!! I'm going to quit paying him this $30 a month if I can't use the Internet in my room and if he can't take care of it.
*tangent* I had a weird dream last night. I had went to a jewelry store to get some jewelry pieces appraised and fixed. One of the employees told me the costs to repair the few pieces of jewelry I had was extraordinarily high. I was grumbling that I couldn't afford that, and maybe I ought to try going to Sickenger's in downtown Lowell since it's closer to home and therefore more affordable. She then suggests that I sign for an in-store credit card to afford the costs, and suckers me into getting it. She also then suggests that I apply for a job at the store since they pay a decent hourly wage, and I'm submitted right then and there...dressed in a regular t-shirt and jeans...for an on-the-spot interview. I leave with my jewelry not fixed, but feeling kind of ripped off. I get a scoring pamphlet of how I did on my job interview in the mail shortly, which pretty much politely tears me a new one, saying "she was very friendly, but too casual and cracked too many jokes" and "her attire was not what we expect at a high-sales outlet" (what did they expect?! it was on-the-spot!) and "not the sort of material we'd hire, very sorry to let you know." It was like how Michele felt in Romy and Michele's High School Reunion after she got interviewed at one of the upscale stores and said, "You know, you shouldn't make people fill out applications if you don't actually intend on hiring them." And the handwriting on the pamphlet....very loopy and all the "i"s and "j"s signed with hearts. Oh yeah, that's professional. So I went back to the place and asked to speak with the manager or whoever was responsible for hiring employees, and told them, "I didn't even go in with the intent of finding a new job, and your worker just embarrassed me. Plus, I feel I was suckered into signing up for a credit card that I didn't even need, all just to get some jewelry fixed. That was a scam, and I'm planning on contacting the Better Business Bureau." The manager just sniffed her nose at me and asked me to leave.
