Alright so until now I think I've tried to be humorous in my posting on here, but today that's going to change. I was happily napping this morning when I got a phone call, Privacy manager do I want to answer it at this time of morning? (9a.m. - I should have been to class an hr ago) In my morning mind set I figured why not what can be the harm? Well sure enough the harm was soon realized. It was the unemployment office returning my call I had made over a week ago. Well that's just dandy I thought there already paying me so why do they need to call me I'm thinking. They wanted to know about my school schedule which is pretty amazingly hard I must say for the all of 2 classes' I take in an actual building, the rest are all done over the internet. Well apparently if you go to school for more then one (Yes 1) day a week during first shift hours 8am to 6pm it's considered an issue. Well I go Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8am to 12pm so a whooping 4 hrs a day Go me! Actually I show up somewhere between 9:30 and 10am though because my lab partners are idiots and just make me mad with there stupidity. So yea I was getting my happy little check for doing nothing all week and NOW because I said I go to school when I do there going to withhold them until they decide what to do about the matter. Now when I was working doing my 50hr weeks it was never a problem but now all of a sudden when I DON'T work it is. Go figure huh? In closing when I grow up and take over the world with my monkey powered assault craft I'm currently working on from stolen technology I saw in a cartoon once. I'm going to kick some government ass!

Actually I'm pissed because:
1) I got fired for a B.S. Reason
2) I don't get benefits because I go to college during the DAYTIME
3) I was being honest when talking to the lady not trying to cheat the system
4) I made this post to vent, so I really don't care what you all think
The reason I got fired was because it was Halloween for starters, a co-worker came into my department dressed as a nun, with a ruler in hand. Well she slaps me on the wrist and gives me the look; like I want you look flirting with me. So I figure what the hell ill flirt back, well she got offended. I had a shoe size sticker on the happy area of my pants. Well she doesn't get offended by the card board penis someone gives her or anything like that. But me showing her that sticker does. So yes that's B.S. The place I worked selectively enforces the rules to suit them. A gay guy has repeatedly propositioned me for sex in front of the store manager and I've complained a many times but nothing happens. So fuck Sears and Fuck you!

So you're a lazy sack of crap, and you're pissed because you're not being paid for it?
My heart really goes out to you.

"...and just make me mad with there stupidity."
Yay for irony.
As has been said many a time on Ubersite, paragraphs are your friend. There are indeed good reasons for them. One of them being that they may save you from a -1 or -2 resultant from people's eyes being burned by the solid brick of text in front of them, and -2ing you as a matter of principle. Not that I am condoning the practice, but it is prevalent and easily avoided.
Secondly... it makes you look smarter. And it affords the reader a better chance of coherent understanding of your post.
And finally: Grammar is your friend as well.
There: A place. "Let's go there."
They're: Contraction of "they are". "They're going there."
Their: Posessive. "They're going there with their friends."
You're: Contraction of "you are". "You're going there."
Your: Posessive. "You're going there with your friends."
Yarr: Generic pirate colloquialism. "Yarr! Avast, I see you're going there with your friends!"
See? Even pirates use proper grammar. And it only takes a moment, and has huge payoff.
Stay orange.
