Rant-Rant Baby!

Buckle your seatbelts boys and girls… It’s rendonkulous time! The crazy train has departed and I’m on it y’all! I don’t post here often, the Facebook phenomena has taken over my interest. This however is the ultra super secret place I go to and bitch and light someone on fire! Not literally, figuratively. If I had a volcano to aim at someone, I WOULD. No wait, I wouldn’t want to disrupt air traffic, stupid volcanoes…

Back to my point, it was brought to my attention from a director that if I want to go anywhere in my place of employment, I should NEVER post anything about work on Facebook. Fuck off! I HAVE NEVER-EVER mentioned anything specific about work, no incidences, no names, not even the name of my employer. It immediately became apparent that someone from work on my “friends” list mentioned my posting about not getting the vacant HR position at work. I am guessing it was someone who had something to gain by mentioning it, potentially costing me the spot. I have since then DELETED every single co-worker from my Facebook.

Am I aware that Facebook, Blogs, and other public social networking sites are potentially hazardous to your employment? Yeah, but fuck-wads from work can’t wait to cause drama. There’s a feeding frenzy not unlike shark attacks at work. There’s blood in the water and no one can keep their fingers out of my goddamned pie. I know, mixed metaphores, but I’m not here to please anyone. This is ALL I said about work and this was what was specifically mentioned to me by the director.

“It's no secret in human nature to want to move up and get into bigger/better things... Well, the thing I was crossing my figers for didn't come through. I applied for an internal HR position at work and got the "thanks but no thanks" letter. Oh well, HEY, I STILL HAVE A JOB! Also, there's the other thing, I'm not gonna get too excited either, it doesn't pay to get excited and jump around like a fool. DCS has set up a face to face interview, no e-mail and phone tag this time. This must mean they're being serious now. Serious is good. Serious means I can look at the roots of probelms out there that cause kids to be taken from the home etc. I can try to be helpful and hopefully make a difference in someone’s life in the real world. *sigh* Dreamers can dream right?”

I was perterbed by the letter, it indicated to me that there was an avoidant behavior involved, whether the person that interviewed me was going to be there the day it was announced or not. It comes across to me as avoidant and weak. Face the person you turned down for fuck’s sake!

Oh I got a talking to about this one as well: "I love the look of absolute confusion that people get when I explain my job and elaborate on the crazy shit the kids sometimes do and what coworkers do to get through a day. LoL” Um yeah, there’s something completely insidious and breeching of confidentiality there. It’s so terrible in fact, we could get sewed into oblivian! Oh NO! No sarcasm there people. Really. I’ve never mentioned the name of where I work, I edit anyone who does put the name out. So other than the usual “It’s been a long day.” “It’s been a rough day.” “Today sucked.” “I am working on such and such unit, oh friggen joy.” NOTHING IS VIOLATING PRIVAVCY!!!!!!!! HIPPA BE DAMNED!

So for the fucktards I work with, they no longer get to nose into my life and anything I say unless I say it directly to them! BOOYAH!

Tammolly ~ Annoyed… What else is new?

...So if I die today I'll be the happy phantom
And I'll go wearin' my naughties like a jewel
I'm still an angel to a girl who hates to sin…
