OT What Would You Do If You Could?
OT What Would You Do If You Could?
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I'm having such a hard time lately and the stress is once again taking it's toll.
So as usual, I had a thought. "What would I do if I were able to throw all caution to the wind, had no responsibilities, and being obnoxious was an option that had no ill affects?"
The first thing I would do is tell my bank EXACTLY what I thought of their 7 working day hold on my paycheck!!!!!!!
I'd spend my paycheck on new shoes.
I'd start a support group called "Dumbass Anonymous" because I know a few idiots who could use the help.
I would tell my clients "No!! You're wrong buddy!! If you didn't get your light bill in the mail would you just not pay it?" Then I would suggest he go to the above support group.
I would throw my dishes out instead of washing them.
I would tell my cell phone provider; "NO......I CAN'T HEAR YOU NOW!! THE RECEPTION OUT HERE STINKS!!"
I'd argue with the electric company until they caved and admitted I DID NOT use 10 billion kilowatts of power this month and convince them they owe ME money!
I would ask the thrift store why they are charging $10 for a pair of used jeans when I can buy new pair at the local department store for $15 on sale.
I would tell my boss that Hummer he bought himself would have made for some nice raises for his overworked and underpaid staff.
I would put a titanium bumper around my truck so I could give the drivers who sit 100 feet from the red light a shove forward so we wouldn't have to sit there through 3 lights!!
Sigh..........but I won't do any of the above because you just can't can you? You have to follow the rules and be politically correct and on your best behavior otherwise you could find yourself in a heap.
At least you can still fantasize about blowing up the neighbor's stereo she's blasting at 6AM with her windows wide open, forcing you to listen to "The Who" as if "Teenage Wastland" was the anthem back in her day!!
No one can take that away from you..........your fantasies........So, what would you do? ........Or am I the only one who has days like these? LOL

Give myself and others the benefit of REAL medical insurance instead of the stuff they're passing off now.
Tell the neighbors that a yapping dog at 3am is NOT CUTE, I don't care how many bunnies are in the yard.
Invest in your bumper so I can PUSH the vehicles in front of me into the parking lot first, before stopping to look for a spot.
Invent a magic wand that seals mouths shut at a wave of my hand.
Put my hormones on a break for just a spell
(having one of those days myself)

Use your bumper to move all the people who do 45 mph in the left lane of interstates…
Create a rear bumper that pushes tailgaters backwards so they back off
Create the ability to snap my fingers and be where I want to be…no airports, long rides, etc to get or give a big hug from/to a special friend when needed.

Call up every parent of every student I had last year that tried to push me around and inform them of how lazy and disrespectful their child is (I was a first year teacher, so I got pushed around quite a bit. Don't get me wrong, I love my job, but it had its moments...)
Tell my sister's druggie boyfriend that I will personally break him in half if he ever comes anywhere near my sister, my parents, or any of their property again
Make my parents realize that they cannot attempt to let my sister come home
wave my magic wand and lose 100 pounds (yes, I am that overweight)
tell the seller of the house we're buying that I think it's rediculous that he can't get the utilities turned back on by now so we can inspect the house. After all, he is only shooting his own foot that way...
tell our neighbors upstairs that they have no right to complain about the volume of our tv (which is not that loud to begin with) since they let their two year old run rampid at all hours of the night, to the point where our apartment shakes from her running/jumping on our ceiling
tell everyone who has ever discriminated against someone for being fat just how ignorant they are

Hmmmm...And how about having a crane we can keep in our car trunk to move idiots who don't know how to park bewtween the lines? You know, the ones that park beside you and you have to climb back in the passenger side and over the console because they left you no room...
I'd also love to tell people who call me at work looking for help that screaming and being disrespectful isn't exactly going to motivate me to help fix the problem!@#*

I would never cook or clean again. Someone would keep my house spotless and my meals delicious and low-calorie. But the thing that I would love to do is get all of our addicts on chairs in a circle and we could just go round and round venting and venting until we could vent no more. Then haul all their a**es off to some island where there was no possibility for them to get drugs and let them stay there for maybe two years and think about what they have learned Hugs, Marle

Make the people on the other end of my phone understand that you need to turn the volume of the music down before I can hear you.
Make the people at the other end of my phone know to remove the receiver from your mouth to yell at your kids, don't yell at me.
Tell cell phone users that its rude to carry on a conversation right behind me in the grocery store aisle and wonder why I keep thinking they're talking to me.
Outlaw blue tooth...or deem the users schizophrenic as the walk down the street laughing at nothing
Teach people that when there's three of you walking together, one of YOU should move out of the way as your approaching me in a hallway.
Teach my dog that the others in the house are perfectly capable of feeding him and letting him out...

I'd like to convince my brother-in-law that "Free Willy" was NOT a porno movie!
Grrrrrr.......I can't believe I even entertained that conversation.
You are so right on about this LOL.

Slap upside the head every driver that BLOCKS an intersection of the road or runs a Traffic Light, just because they think they own the ROAD and it's their right to go first.
As a State Employee, people give you that typical answer - "I'm paying your salary - You have to do what I tell you" - I would love, just once to say "Oh that's you, good I'd like to talk to about a raise, since State Employees haven't had one in 10 years".
I would love to tell my Home Owners Insurance Company the same thing they told me when we were waiting for payment after Hurricane Rita "Do you realize how many pieces of mail we get a day to try to process? I'll get to it when I can" I would LOVE to write them about my bill - "Do you realize how many other bills I have? I'll get to it when I can!!" (especially since our premiums almost doubled).
And most of all
I would love to tell my Health Insurance Company that their premiums exceed MY FEE SCHEDULE! That I will only be paying 20% of the monthly premiums
Ok - I feel much better now.
Peace out,
Rita
