RE: NEED TO RANT
Well I want to rant too, and since you are done, I will take up where you left off. I am at work...and it f_cking sucks! I had a few too many beers last night and have to deal with idiots, morons, and douchebags...with a hangover. Then, one of the guys that works in the yard loading and cleaning equipment wants to talk to me. He is nice, but I hate it when he wants to talk to me. He has a monotone voice, smells like he must be covered with fish scales underneath his clothes, and can't tell a story or convey his message for jack cchit. He doesn't pronounce a *th* sound, which also bugs the crap out of me. For example, he says bofe instead of both. Also, he used to be in the reserves, and is as bad as that girl with her band camp stories: This one time...in Egypt...
So I am getting inendated with phonecalls, which I hate. I get asked things like:
Oh, so you are open? (No, we are closed, but I am answering the phones just to f_ck with you. Yay me!!!)
Do you have one of those things, I'm not sure what it is called? (Good thing I'm a mindreader, b!tch)
I reserved a tractor, is it there? (No, you reserved it for 9am, so we decided to have one here tomorrow, idiot)
I noticed that many people smell on Saturday morning at the old equipment rental store. They probably figure, it is Saturday and they are just going to pick up a trencher or pressure washer, so why take a shower, put on deodorant, or wear clean clothes. Why? Why?? Because I have a freaking hangover, and my stomach is a little queasy, that's why! I don't wan't to smell unwashed, sweaty shirt, old man smell with my hangover, thank you very much. Peeps be trippin, yo.
Sooooo...what's up with checks? Haven't you people heard of a debit card? When you pay with a check, jerkface, I have to have your phone number, DL #, run it through the check machine (which asks me a series of like five questions), put our account number on it, put the contract number on it, put the approval number on it, get a stool sample, get your mother's maiden name, cure cancer, fight intergalactic pirates form the future, etc, etc, etc. Thanks...thanks a lot! I could be donating my time to build schools in third world countries, but NOOOOOOOOO, I have to fill out nine thousand things on your personal check.
In closing, I would like to say, Mr. Weekend Warrior, just because I rent the shiz doesn't mean I am a contractor. Just because I rent a concrete mixer doesn't mean that I can form up and poor a foundation for your house. I don't go to Safeway, buy groceries, and ask the cashier how to make Eggplant Parmigiana and Baked Alaska, do I? Freaking knucklehead, hire a contractor if you don't know what the hell you are doing. Then he will come in and rent the thing, and I won't have to put up with pure stupidity.
Okay, I feel better. Thank you. [sm=rant.gif]
