There's no "Someone Else's Job: The Movie" thread so I'm putting it here as it's still relevant to my interests.

The more I think about this, the more annoying it is.

See, we're broke. I think everyone here knows it by now. I've been looking for a new job for two months, with no results. She didn't go look for a job because she likes the one she has -- constantly-cut hours and shitty pay aside, it meant she could more easily stay out all night drinking with her friends.

That's right, we've been late on our rent a couple times, and with stiff late fees, to more readily supply her with beer.

So while I'm out exhausting myself turning in applications day after day, she gets promoted into exactly the job she wants, not only by putting in no effort whatsoever but by making the worst, most irresponsible possible choice.

Not to be a dick or anything, but something in me says that she's gotta go. You seem to be working way to hard to end up getting stiffed continually. When it comes to finances, at least in my book, if a roommate is making them unmanageable it is time to find one that won't.

That sentence is terribly written but my brain is about on empty right now.

Today I learned that I do not give one iota of fuck about this philosophical argument I am supposed to write. It is so bad that I have written 8 words and stared at the screen, because that is more fun.

...!

I think we just discovered Sharkey's new career.

Quick, someone lure him in with booze!

My parents are out of the town for the weekend going to the horse races and such, so everything around the house is calm and quiet. This morning I got a call from my mom at 7am, turns out my dad had a heart attack last night. His main artery into his heart was almost completely blocked. Luckily they were able to get him to the hospital and put in 3 stints, so he's ok and recovering in the ICU.

Of course I am stuck at home because I have "volunteer work", can it even be called that if you HAVE to do it for a grade, and class in the morning. Doctors said he should be released some time tomorrow though.

I work in a restaurant, all my complaints end in an "Aaron they said this, don't do it again" /slaponwrist

He could mean brand new as in he's had it, but this is the first install, kind of like how food is still "fresh" if it has only been frozen the initial time.

Explains why he looks pretty annoyed, well that and the Batman getup.

Maybe they should start collaborating on a site?

The evil part of me is wanting to go grab the signs and put an extra "o" on them just to see if she notices or how she reacts, but the side that fears for his well-being at home says "Don't you even think about it."

I have a bunch of pet peeves, but the biggest one right now is people throwing around words like "fag" or "faggot". I realized this last night when my dad said it and I was annoyed. I think it is because I do work with so many homosexual, for lack of better descriptor, people, and it has opened my mind up since high school. Doesn't mean I want to hear about their love lives though.

I also realized I am a bit of a Grammar Nazi when I was pulling in the driveway today and saw my mom had typed "to" instead of "too" on a sign and I just wanted to get out and fix it.
