So I pretty much work as a Customer Service/Sales Rep at a company that sells preschool furniture. Most of our orders are out of state orders and have to be shipped. (very rarely does someone come pick their stuff up) So every so often a customer gets merch. that has been damaged during shipping. (NOT MY FAULT PPL!) Anyway, if they don't note the damage on the delivery ticket when they sign for it then it is our policy to have the customer send in pictures of the damaged merchandise. When they e-mail me the pictures I tell them to MAKE SURE they add their name and phone numbers, shipping zip code and name of their center, model number and color of the merchandise that is damaged. More often than not all I get is a picture of a damaged whatever and no info. I NEED THAT INFO TO FIX YOUR PROBLEM YOU DUMBA**ES!! OMG ARE YOU THAT EFFING STUPID!
(a little advice for anyone who has ordered furniture or any large item that has to be shipped: always take your stuff out of the boxes and check for damages BEFORE YOU SIGN FOR YOUR STUFF. If there are any visible damages NOTE THAT ON THE DELIVERY TICKET or just all out refuse the merch. That simple.
Somebody was microwaving fish in the office kitchen. Now I can't get that smell out of my nose. Ew.
Ok that is worse than the grr I had - mine was just that one of the attorney's opened a can of tuna, drained it and was just eating tuna on her salad and the entire office smelled like tuna.
Gripe of the day: Sooooo I work about 50 hours a week (including the driving time I don't get paid for of course). Sure some people work a lot more but for someone like me who detests working and hasn't had a full time job in years, this is a lot of work. So on rare occasions when I decide to put in some extra hours one day that I might take off early another day, I expect to make full use of that precious free time.
So yesterday I worked a little extra. Today I realized it was a beautiful day and I could and should take my spanking new kayak out on the lake, so I made plans to do so. I left work, started tooling my way home, and call the guy whose house I left my kayak at (there was a party at the lake this past weekend, I left it there, mistake) and he gets all lame about me going out there because his (well it's his parent's house actually) neighbors are all rich suspicious jerks and might find my climbing over the gate a little fishy. I mean this isn't like a gated community or anything, we're talking about a couple big houses on the lake that just happen to be situated near each other. So he tells me not to go out there, no one is there and he's a little sissy pants.
This might be the nicest day of the year so far, I've used my kayak exactly one time before, and I can't use it today with my precious free time because this guy lacks a ballsack. What would happen if I climbed the gate? Would the cops come? I know the kid and his parents and I've got the receipt for the kayak in my freaking wallet, not to mention the boat is registered with DNR. I don't know, it's really a pretty stupid thing to get irritated about I guess, but dammit! Such a nice day for the lake! Only used my expensive kayak once! I want!

Wolfaroo, I'd be pissed too. That's a pretty big grrrr in my book. I don't really have a grrr today other than my first patient of the day was a retired radiologist who I used to work with. So naturally, I wanted to impress him with my skills. 3 IV sticks later I still had yet to impress him with my skills. He could see the embarrassment and frustration on my face and was really kind about it. Even though he could have cared less, this 10 minutes of failure will stick with me for the rest of my career. Obviously I want to do a good job on all of my patients but when you have a patient who you've been mentored by, you really want to do a good job. Especially if said patient is a doctor.

I'm sorry this happened to you. Don't be so hard on yourself though. There are some days when even the best can't stick the side of a barn, as I've heard it said. He knows you and knows you are way more than just an iv stick. So are you a rad tech, nuclear med, CT or what? I went to a year of RT school years ago, had to drop out because of finances. when I finally went back years later I went ahead and got a nursing degree. But worked for 2 years as an "assistant" in a dept where they let me do a lot of things. Can still do a pretty good lateral scapula, not that there's a huge demand for those...lol
anyway, sorry to digress. deep cleansing breath and onward!
big GRRR here. last week my blackberry curve went dead, would not reboot, so got a warranty replacement sent. On Sunday it powered up but would not display any icons=totally unable to use the phone without an error message coming up, so after 2 hours on the phone with Verizon and having to wipe the phone/reload operating system it came back up.
now on the new phone I have no sound---can hear calls but ringers not working, can't listen to pandora, youtube, etc...
so I am getting another effing replacement. This means another couple hours wasted reloading everything. they say I have to get the same phone again!!!
thinking of changing carriers if this one doesn't work.

^That's a pain. I had to get my phone replaced under the insurance a few months ago, and they sent me a refurb, and I've had problems with it the whole time I've had it.
Somebody was microwaving fish in the office kitchen. Now I can't get that smell out of my nose. Ew.
There's a lady here at work that eats fish every other day. And warms it up in the microwave.... there's truly no other smell like it.
Now I kind of feel bad because I eat a lot of fish at work and heat it up in the microwave.....like Marie Callender fried fish tv dinners or leftover fried catfish. I wonder if my co-workers have been GRRRRing me! I think Fishing Maniac should weigh in on this one!

I went to xray school, worked for a bit as a general tech, studied on my own and have been CT certified for about 6 years. I work in an outpatient urology clinic which is sweet. I make more money than the PA's who perform cystoscopies, renal ultrasounds, and assist on the robotic prostatectomies, etc.... I went to school for two years at a hospital program. My entire education cost me $2500.00 and I make around 20k more a year than my brother who has his MBA. We'll see how much of a hit my salary takes in the next couple of years with the new healthcare legislation. Hell, I may not even have a job.
Grrr.. to blackberries. I bought a storm and am now on my third one in the last year.

Grrrr - this seems to be the week for nothing in the house to go right
1. The washing maching quit on Sunday 2. I came home last night to find out that the kitchen sink was clogged and when Boz tried to unclogged it - he just pushed the clog into the pipes between the sink and the washing machine
as of today tho - both are fixed - but it cost money I did not want or plan to spend on either one

grrrr.... I hate people who have a "do as I say and not as I do" kind of attitude, like I care what they say or do anyways. It makes me feel ill on Good Friday.
My hot water heater blew up on Sunday. The radiator on my car blew up Wednesday. I have a swollen tooth that's been bugging me for 3 days. I am in a really great mood. So it's a very small
