My sister is stuck in a wheelchair, so I have to cook, clean, and take my nephew to and from school everyday. My nephew who is seven years old is autistic, so he's going for only part of a school day. I have to go get him at odd hours, and since I'm doing housework/cooking later in the day, I can't get a full time job. I have to deal with his moods and outbursts everyday. Taking care of him, his 11 year old sister (she's moody thanks to hormones) and his mother means I have no time for even part time work, so I'm constantly broke as a result. Since she is family and needs my help I can't move out and not have a guilty conscience. My sister's fiancee is a vile and mentally abusive person, and I get stuck dealing with him all the time. He doesn't even help with housework or the kids. We're struggling financially so our home internet and cable was unpaid and cut off, and we're still getting charged for it until the owing amount is paid. The only reason I own a nice phone is cause I saved money for months and signed a contract. My computer was built from free, salvaged parts, otherwise I wouldn't have one of those either. I have serious insomnia and never get proper rest. I also have back pain, anxiety and a whole mess of health problems despite only being 20 years old. I was forced to move into a different city cause of my sister, and now I can no longer see any of my friends. My situation at home prevents me from being able to have a girlfriend as well.
All of this is true, no exaggerations. FML
^^ That sounds about as hard as it gets. You have to believe that it can only get better from there!

I run a basketball league for kids and wanted to notify all players that practice was cancelled this past Friday because of the weather. Instead of selecting "Basketball" group in Gmail, I selected "All." The email was sent to about 800 people, including my professors, ex-professors, TAs, friends I haven't talked to in years, etc. - -. Most embarrassing moment of my life, so awkward.

We have a wee bit of rioting in Belfast this evening. There's a parade on somewhere or other. Got me thinking about rioting in general. We get a lot of it here. LAst summer was particularly bad with a lot of rioting around the city and around NI in general. this is a video from last year at Ardoyne. It doesn't kick of right away but it gets a bit out of hand. This one is quite tame. Afterwards a policewoman was seriously inured when a rioter through some concrete on her.
Belfast and Vancouver may be on different continents but they have the perennial riots in common. It's only 0.1% of each population though, while the rest look on thinking 'what a bunch of asshats'
It'll all change given, oh i don't know....300 years? Shame we won't be around to enjoy the peace!

good heavens! ur from belfast as well! the riots last summer was madness. thank god most of it was around Derry and North Belfast! just when you think people are matured enough to put the past behind them and move on! no wonder most of NI is a dump...lol
i was however stuck in the middle of the riots last year (if i remember right) along the lower windsor avenue when the polish supporters clashed with the local ones. 'twas a bloody affair i tell you. i actually pity the coppers in NI. poor guys are hated by both sides and have been putting up with sectarian s**t for too many decades now
If citizens were allowed to carry firearms it would pretty much stop the rioting. People are less inclined to do something that may get them killed....

rioting is one thing but the assassination in the antrim base, the cold blooded murder of the police officer in craigavon and the recent ones as well have taken things just a bit too far. what do they hope to achieve. yes i do know they are fighting for a cause, but blood baths isnt the answer.
It has really kicked off the last two nights with up to 500 on Monday night rioting and 700 last night. A photographer was shot in the leg last night, you can read the article here.
Shots have been fired by both sides of the community and there is very little the police can do without being heavy handed. This is putting such a negative slant on Northern Ireland which is a fantastic little country.
Let's face it, humans don't need a reason to be violent. They just need an excuse.

How did i deal with my bullies? i took them on one by one.. brought their little level back down and beat them up.
Remember in junior high this kid from special ed decided to pick a fight with me, he ended up smacking me causing my glasses to fall off, and his special ed buddies decided to destroy them, I really didn't want to punch the kid, I punched him once, the nurse later told me I broke his rib. lol

Don't let them get you down... get even.
If they prefer to ambush you ambush them.
There are many ways to get even.
If you can play "Lol, Dota, Hon, SoTiS" and manage to get a killing spree.. you should damn well be able to stack the odds against them.
Just remember... you are not the same trash that they are.
Take your light saber, strike them down with all your anger and your walk to the darkside will be complete.

It's disgusting but thankfully they were just that dumb to provide the video that has now condemned them. I hope the authorities throw the book at them.
I always taught my kids to punch a bully in the face in front everybody and I wont be mad at them. Ill deal with the school, don't let some one pick one you like that (it will also allow other bullys to take notice and join in) My son did slap the **** out of one on the bus, I didn't condone it. A bully will leave you alone if you let them know you wont take it weather they are bigger or not. They'll find another wimp to pick on that will allow it. Its that simple.
Nothing like teaching kids self confidence and how to handle themselves in an uncomfortable situation inste of playing victim like our culture is pushing.

Bullying is usually at the high school level, Hormones are high, insecurities are popping up, and street violence follows the students into class.
Most of the trouble makers don't graduate high school much less make it to college.

Ah I remember High School. Some kid (remember, bigger than me) didn't like something I said. During class threatened me that I'll get beat up. I ignored him. In the next few days I always saw him with his buddies, I was always alone in the staircase, but his buddies had too much respect to touch me. It's fun being smart enough to control the crowd with just your posture. lol

Yeah that's the one. I saw it a long time ago.
So, I had a local deal in trading my HTC Rezound for a Razr Maxx. We kept in contact via text. The trade was my Rezound for the Maxx. Then I was asked what accessories it came with, so I told them it came with screen protector , and they asked, "if you get an extended battery, you got a deal ."
So I said ok to getting the extended battery and ordered it the same day. Took about 4days to get to my house. I contact the person saying I received the extended battery and asked when we could meet. We agreed on the upcoming Saturday. Saturday comes, and the person asks if we can meet around noon , I said ok.
About 15mins later I receive a text saying the deal is canceled as the person is giving it to their father. So I say ok. I check Craigslist about 20 mins later and find the same person selling it. I emailed the person asking for a trade to make sure it was them. Same email, same location, and same number. My conclusion, I was lied to.
I don't have a problem if they decide not to do the trade, but don't say you're gonna do the trade, have me buy an expensive item, then lie to me about not wanting to the trade by saying you're giving it to your dad. Just don't blatantly lie to me that you're nit interested in the trade. The fact that they lied is more of why I'm pissed.
Was I wrong to be too trusting? Maybe.
Anyways, thanks for reading

What's your thoughts about the person who manages your day at work, school or even at home?
Do they treat everyone with understanding or does this person resemble Godzilla.
Is the boss all business or trusting enough to let things run?
Can you find the boss when need be or stays hidden so you get the blame?
Are they a clock watcher-nitpicker or pays no attention to a few gimmes as long the work is done on time?
Is the boss easy to work for or does everybody just live with attitude for pay?
Would you ever want to be the boss?
Been on both sides myself not easy either way.

Our boss is rather.. insane. xD
Hide all the snacks, because if you look away they're gone.
If he's bored, he'll come over to see if we have anything interesting to watch. (I have a 1TB portable drive full of films and TVshows.)
Or he suddenly starts doing pushups on the stairs out of boredom. xD
Or do a fashionshow catwalk thing in the hall (we're a bodybuilder clothing brand. He is not a bodybuilder.... xD)
Also, randomly hands someone keys and tells them to go buy 14 bigmacs. xD
My boss is pretty typical. Acts like he is your friend, but you can tell, if you **** up, he will fire you on the spot. He is a company man to the core. Work at a large grocery distribution center. If we were not union, who knows how much people he would of fired.
With 35 years of clock punching I've had most every type of boss.
The great bosses usually didn't last long they always got moved out for better jobs.
The bad ones always stuck around till the union filed so many grievances they ran away.
I was kicked into the boss chair back in 2002.
Wow...talk about overwhelming!
I had women in my office crying, people ratting each other out, fist fights, investigations into willful property damage (aircraft parts), union rep in my office everyday, quality investigations, daily IT reports about network misuses, stand-up briefings with our center maintenance chief (USAF LT General), no more overtime...scary!
I wasn't very good at handling most things except the briefings, always had my facts straight and never lied.
Lasted a little under five years then bailed with an early out incentive.
Funny how you get the "we're gonna miss you around here" after the daily eye blackening.
Stress almost killed me...still get chest pains when I think about

So i guess ill add in I'm only 17 so not much work experience but I lifeguard at an Olympic sized usually popular pool...I have two main bosses and one is some big lady and the other is a very nice man their both scary to me but I like the guy better becuae he's more friendly...also I referee for soccer so no boss there...and I'm doing a scholarship/volunteer program at john Muir hospital and that's very fun and interesting nice boss there....
the first boss (well erm, supervisor) i ever had was a 21 year old hot chick who i was with in my 1st job, she was pretty, hot, and pretty.... and also she never got mad even though i was always late (30mins to be exact) every single day, i was 18 back then and worked for StraightTalk Wireless as a tier 1 customer and sales support agent, boy those were the times, i sometimes slept through work since i go to college in the morning whilst working in the graveyard shift and had a maximum of 5 hours sleep per day, she just taps my shoulder and says "don't let the seniors see ya", i really wonder why she let's me off the hook so easy, maybe it was because i was the teams top agent,
after that i had an indian boss, pretty cool guy, and he's the "democratic guy" who kicks ya out of you do something so stupid but yet lets you choose the options,
now i have american boss the "strict and sleek type" he doesn't like slacking around and wants you to be busy (i just act like im busy), he's okay since he'll defend his team from the corporate arseholes,

I see what you did there but he strikes me as more of a Belinda.

Ooooooh, you might be right. He gets weak.

My boss owns the company. He basically said "here, run the place...I've got other things to do"
He's alright.
After hurricane Sandy, we had a dispatcher and a couple drivers that had no place to go. I told him about it and he gave them temporary housing in one of his buildings.
The last boss I dealt with was in a word "lost."
Before any decisions he had to call his boss.
He'd get the shakes and turn white if he had to jump on anyone.
What's up guyzzzzz, Alan Urista here, hopefully some of you remember me.
Anyways I finally graduated on June, which is crazy since I remember starting XDA when I was a 7th grader in Junior High (I was barely 13, now I'm 18!)
So I'm going to college but I have no Idea what to Major in.
I'm freaking out now LOL.
Like I wanna be a YouTuber and as well as compete in American Ninja Warrior.....but that's until I'm 21....so for now I have no idea what to do with my life other than college lol.
Oh...I got a job last year at Baskin Robbins ! So that's good
Also got my license last year as well!
Well just wanted to stop by and say HI! To my old off topic buds
And to those that remember.....I never got to date Sarah, never had the guts to talk to her again. And it's too late as she has already left to college.
I remember I made useless threads here and they never got closed.
But over these couple of years OT moderators are a bit more uptight lol.
So let's see how long this thread lasts.
Here are some of my Memorable Threads

Make Youtube and american ninja a hobby. Focus on college generals and they will lead you to something you like.

yea,
****'s cray
You should make YouTube a hobby, let it start off. Focus on college as well.
Try different things and see what satisfies you the most, welcome back to xda. Even though I have never seen you here before as you've been here longer than me.
All the best with life mate!
If you're serious about youtube, perhaps media studies is a direction you might want to consider?
Welcome back!
