[aimeeandbeatles]

i have resigned myself to the fate of having no permanent friends. it seems that its either me, or its them. or both.

Then what do you call the people on CFC?

 

[Mathalamus]

Acquaintances. you people are fun to talk to, but we almost never talk on a personal level. and this doesn't count.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

I think the Archives just got a giant boost!

(Hopefully... hopefully... hopefully...)

The waiting is the hardest part.

You got that from a song.

I'm having a hell of a time at work. I pretty much just started

I have to use wordpress to make a site and I always seem to it up somehow. Everything I do is outside their spec. I'm a receptionist ffs. I'm only trying to be helpful by getting in on this project but I'm starting to annoy my boss with my screw ups.

There's nothing else to do since it's summer and I don't like being idle, and neither does my boss. I can't populate a website with content without something to put there!

I'm also quite a nervous person at work. I just hope I don't get sacked .

Are you having trouble with the technical stuff? I create WordPress sites (see the signature) so I might be able to give some suggests.

Sort of. I could learn the procedure if I was given something to implement but I don't really know what they want me to do with it. I don't like sitting on reddit all shift and the boss doesn't either but I don't really have anything else to do.

Well, what exactly is it thats to be done with the site?

Aggies drama

Not that this wasn't forseeable, I even agree with the long term future of superconferences and all

Me too. Everyone I know is too busy. Everytime I try to make new friends I get nothing but grief.

I don't even know. They just say work on the website... but I don't know what to put there and everytime I go looking for something to do and do it I end up having to undo it.

I liked working at the supermarket better. There was always work to do and it was simple and repetitive. In this job everyone who comes into the office has a different question and I never have a good answer for them and I mess up getting their name down. I can't speak to my boss without being nervous even though she's nice enough.

If this keeps up I'll probably get fired. I'd fire me for this. I'm there to make her life easier and I don't feel I'm doing that.

Weird! So you're told to make a site but nobody tells you the purpose of the site or what to put on it. I mean there ought to be some sort of rough outline.

 

[Narz]

Yeah, and?

And nothing but this is a rants thread so I had to make it into a rant.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Rant: The forum I got banned from did not ban the bad troll. Even worse, the troll instantly came back and tried to instigate an argument with one of my friends. But it didn't work.

I know what the purpose of the site is but nobody tells me what I should do with it. Everytime I go off on my own and try to find something to do on it I end up having to undo it because I suck at Wordpress.

It's not all our own site either, it's only a section. I have to worry about not breaking any other part of the site too.

I think in lieu of more clear orders and objectives, I'm not even going to pretend to work on it anymore. I don't what I'll do for my first 8 hour shift there on Monday but hopefully I can find something to justify my pay. I don't like slacking off so early in a job and I want to work, but I'm doing more harm than good at this point.

 

[GenMarshall]

Never do that, if you give in, you're gone. Fight and keep searching for a job You'll find one, one day.

I've been doing that for two years now and I've still got nothing, not even a lousy interview!

 

[azzaman333]

Sometimes I amaze myself at how inept I am...

 

[shadowplay]

Campsite washrooms. Oh... my god

 

[SuperJay]

"Rooms?" ROOMS?? When I go camping, you wash in a river. Or a puddle. Of mud. See how clean that gets you!

*leaves to go camping in pop-up RV*

So a 16 year-old girl who used to go to my school is now pregnant. She recently posted this on her Facebook:
"man, i cant wait to dress my little one in sum fre$h as [misspelled profanity] [misspelled profanity]...(;"
Innumerably many things about that sentence are really [properly spelled profanity] depressing.
