Steve-O's Bad Day

Today has been a frustrating, unhappy day for me. i will tell you why.

I work at a certain restaurant, and there are two certain people (whose names I won't share) who have been rude, irritating, and often downright inconsiderate. if they're reading this, what are they gonna do? Fire me? If they have a problem with me disliking them, then that's their problem, not mine. Anyway...

Normally, I'll go in and have just one single biscuit for breakfast. no sausage, no nothing. Keep in mind that these biscuits were going to be thrown out anyway. Suddenly, she decides to start charging us a dollar for them. I'm being charged for something that is supposed to be FREE. So, because of that, I won't be having breakfast anymore.

I work very hard and always try my best, but these two employees make everything so much harder for me. Often, they'll immediately give me work the very second I set foot inside the restaurant. I don't even have time to clock on, much less use the bathroom. Regardless, I do it anyway. They often tell me how to do my job, even though their ideas on how my job should be done are less efficient. One of those two employees seems to deliberately hunt me down and attempt to assign work to me just for the sake of doing so. When she is in sight, I often pretend I'm busy in hopes of not being given another task that requires me to go out of my way. They tend to assign me work that I haven't even been taught how to do. One day, she gave me a pen and notepad, instructing me to take people's drink orders when I have no idea how yet. She also instructed me to replace the box of soda and hook it up; once again, nobody taught me how. They often assume I know how to do everything when clearly I don't. I'm not the new guy anymore. I know how to do my job, and I don't need somebody telling me how to do it.

To top it all off, one of those two people I work with told my mother that she was a 'bad mother' and yelled at her two years ago. My mother was crying because of her. I only learned about this a few days ago, and after hearing about this, I was enraged. I can honestly say that I'm ashamed to work in the same restaurant as someone who would not only insult ME, but insult my own MOTHER as well. My mother has let it go, but I haven't. I'm sorry, but I'm not ready to forgive her for that. Not yet.

Honestly, I was seriously, seriously considering quitting my job. Why? There's a job opening at a gas station that not only pays $8.00 an hour, but it's a full-time job. I could be getting paid just for standing behind a counter all day. The only reason why I didn't quit is because THIS job was given to me without the need of an application, experience, or an interview. I can't promise I'd get that other job. So, while I'm working at this restaurant, I'm just going to smile, nod, and play nice with the other employees, because the money is the only thing that REALLY matters to me.

NOW... This is where my day gets even MORE inconvenient. After work, I decide to use some of my paycheck money for some well-deserved 'me-time' at the mall. I wanted to stop off at a pawn shop and the bookstore before heading home to get a shower, so I told my mom I'd get a ride from my friend Wanda later.

After getting done at the pawn shop and bookstore, I called Wanda in hopes of getting that ride, but there was no response. So, I decided to walk over to her house. Upon getting there, the only people there at the time were Wanda's husband and her daughters Katie and Ashley. Ashley told me Wanda would probably be home within around 45 minutes. I waited for nearly three hours. It's not her fault, I know. It's just that had I known she would be gone for this long in advance, I would've just walked to the mall myself.

I left Wanda's house in hopes of reaching the mall on foot. I took a shortcut, but after walking, I realized that the stores would be closed by the time I reached the mall. Still not giving up yet, I called my dad and asked for a ride. Here's where he decides to be a jerk.

I told him EXACTLY where I was. I gave him the name of the street I was on and what stores were near my current location. He told me he would come get me. He did NOT, however, tell me to remain where I was. I assumed it would be better to continue walking down the street in a straight line on the same road. However, my dad was going the wrong way. I told him my EXACT location YET AGAIN, even providing him with a description of the stores around me, and he STILL couldn't find me. He started getting pissy at me, and when he finally picked me up, we remained silent the entire trip back home.

Let's recap today's events, shall we?

* Suffer working alongside two INTOLERABLE employees
* Fail to find what I was searching for at the pawn shop
* Fail to find what I was searching for at the bookstore
* Fail to acquire a ride to the mall
* Fail to reach the mall on time
* Put up with my dad's bad attitude he had due to HIS OWN FAULT

Yeah, my day was full of sunshine and frickin' rainbows. Maybe tomorrow will have a unicorn in it.

Almost two weeks ago, my poor laptop suffered a massive virus attack, which immediately lead to a total system meltdown afterward. Fortunately, I had everything backed up (including the back-ups themselves)! So, after re-installing Windows XP and my most commonly used software, I have RETURNED!!!

That's right, ladies and gentlemen! I am FINALLY employed! I work at a small restaurant downtown called the Oakwood Cafe busing tables for $7.15 an hour. So, because of my new employment, I want to let you all know that updates will be a little slow. I work Monday - Friday from 11 AM to 2 PM, so during the week, I'll usually be relaxing for a bit. I'll try to update when I can though, so bear with me! :D

Welfare Poem - oh boy you will love this!
I've heard the poem before but read to the end......didn't know that.



I cross ocean,
Poor and broke,
Take bus,
See employment folk.

Nice man treat me
Good in there,
Say I need to
See welfare.

Welfare say,
"You come no more,
We send cash
Right to your door."

Welfare checks,
They make you wealthy,
Medicaid it keep
You healthy!

By and by,
I get plenty money,
Thanks to you,
American dummy.

Write to friends
In motherland,
Tell them "come
Fast as you can."

They come in turbans
And Ford trucks,
I buy big house
With welfare bucks

They come here,
We live together,
More welfare checks,
It gets better!

Fourteen families,
They moving in,
But neighbor's patience
Wearing thin.

Finally, white guy
Moves away,
Now I buy his house,
And then I say,
"Find more aliens
For house to rent."
And in the yard
I put a tent.

Send for family
They just trash,
But they, too,
Draw the welfare cash!
Everything is
Very good,
And soon we
Own the neighborhood.

We have hobby
it's called breeding,
Welfare pay
For baby feeding.

Kid's need dentist?
Wife's need pills?
We get free!
We got no bills!

American's crazy!
He pay all year,
To keep welfare
Running here.

We think America
Darn good place!
Too darn good for
The white man race.
If they no like us,
They can scram,
Got lots of room in Pakistan.



It is interesting that the federal government provides a single refugee with a monthly allowance of $1,890.00 and each can also get an additional $580.00 in social assistance for a total of$2,470.00 ...

This compares very well to a single pensioner who after contributing to the growth and development of America for 40 to 50 years can only receive a monthly maximum of $1,012.00 in old age pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement.

Maybe our pensioners should apply as refugees!

Lets send this to all Americans, so we can all be ticked off and maybe we can get the refugees cut back to $1,012.00 and the pensioners up to $2,470 00 and enjoy some of the money we were forced to submit to the Government over the last 40 or 50 years.

Please forward to every American to expose what our elected politicians have been doing over the past 11 years - to the over-taxed American.

SEND THIS TO EVERY AMERICAN TAXPAYER YOU KNOW!
