School....
2010-Aug-18, Wednesday 06:59 pmSo, this is likely to be one of, if not the, last postings on school.
I'm always AMAZED at some people's complete lack of ability to read, or even type English. This is a BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION track, people. The word is 'begin' not 'begun'. It's not a difficult concept to realize that I'm trying to make sure someone else and I are on the same page so if I have to pick up a third party's failure to deliver, I want to be absolutely sure I'm getting the right data in. Don't fucking tell me why you chose the section you did. Tell me that what you're expecting is XYZ, so I can deliver XYZ. I'm not interested in why your kids need your time this weekend; I'm trying to work with you to be absolutely sure I'm able to help you get your work done on time, and before the weekend, so your shitbags CAN have their mommy back for the weekend.
Did I mention I'm incredibly tired of people that truly are clueless, in business and in life? And did I mention that I'm very, very, very eager to be done with school so that every time I have to put up with this crap in the future, I have A> an escalation point where I can make sure this crap doesn't happen again, and B> a better paycheck so I can understand why I'm bothering to put up with them at all, and not paying my own money to do just that.

And what would you possibly say differently drunk when you honestly tell all sober?

on 2010-Aug-19, Thursday 07:08 pm (UTC)As to the honesty, well, that's the funny thing. Honesty comes in a great variety of flavors. Being drunk doesn't, as many people like to think, make you more honest. All it does is impair your impairment; it lowers your inhibitions by clouding that part of the brain's normal function. So, when I get very drunk, I get more flaming at times, I get bitchier at times, and I get much more manipulative and underhanded a LOT of the time. So while I'm trying to maintain telling the truth in all things, being drunk makes that truth come out a lot less palatable or polite than it might normally be otherwise. But I also only enjoy getting heavily drunk on certain or special occasions, or when I'm incredibly depressed, so it's not all that frequent.
