Wgmg: being humilated and belittled at work because two of my coworkers were bored amd decided to bully me. Had the last laugh though as i reported them to h.r and upper management. Like i told my boss i can handle banter but when theres nothing to do and when they're bored i bear the brunt of their shit. I wont take it. Also got told again i dont do shit despite me being the only forklift driver/storeman there so i have hardly any time to breath without someone asking me to do something

Flight delayed at the last minute for 90 minutes, meaning I'll have to shell out $80 for an uber home at 1am, before having to go back into work early tomorrow morning.

WGMG: We literally cannot find a suitable undergraduate at the moment. Some of the excuses I have heard recently as to why a 21 year old in an industry where now less than 50% of graduates are employed can't get off his ass and work 3 days a week.
We have had a meeting with the Geotechnical advisor of Griffith University on the GC because of some of the bullshit their undergraduates put us through. Had to tell the University that we will have to exclude their graduates if we keep having consistent issues.

WGMG: Me agreeing to a phone interview to a private number on a poor line and the line cutting out halfway through one of their questions making it seem like I hung up. I think the interview was going poorly as it was full of questions and answers like the one below but still I'd have liked the chance to finish it.
WGMG: Stupid interview questions like "What will you bring to the company that the other applicants can't?" Just makes me confused as to its goal and sound like a dickhead when asking them how I am supposed to know what their other applicants can bring and how I compare. "Can you give me a report on each other other applicants before I answer the question?"

When I went for undergrad positions I hated questions like "why do you want to work for Rio-Tinto"? Like wtf, I want a career and money, i'll be anyones bitch for a future. Sounds like you're applying to a large company that pays a operations manager too much money to formulate nonsence questions. Don't ever apply for Origin Energy. I had fill out a reference for a former undergraduate and some of the questions were ridiculous. They also sent me an email every 12 hours reminding me I had to do the reference until I eventually got around to it.

I had a phone interview the other day for a junior purchasing officer at a building firm , had a good convo with the guy, tells me you will get am email for an interview. Havent recieved it as of yet. Im not impressed but at least i got a job in the industry (storeman for a construction company )

A brother is the owner of IP Wealth, another brother manages it, a trademark company and they ask their attorneys that. The manager hates asking because the answers are always an ego stroke for the owner.

WGMG: It's time to get serious cucks. We're through the looking glass. The last straw has been burned and the shit has stopped the fan. Not really but whatever it's time to rant. Personally I blame my dissapointing dinner and the fluoride in my water. Let us begin with my roommate across the hall. (1) I'll call it like it is. He smells worse than a re-animated octogenarian. He's 6-3, at least 90-100 kgs, wears excessively baggy clothes, is socially retarded and has a hygienic understanding similar to He Who Must Not Wipe Up. He absolutely STINKS of rank body odour with a pungent mix of Lynx Africa. He becomes visibly estranged when I enter his sphere of influence. He has only washed his clothes on one occasion, and it took a week for him to remove his clothes back into his lair. When he leaves for work (the only time he leaves the house) he leaves his door open, exposing us to his odour, permeating our beings. I am currently sitting in my lavish space being infected by this stench, and gents, it's not fucking cheers. He has a minimalist amount of food in the kitchen, and whatever is there it is highly processed and distinctly lacking in nutrition and therefore happiness. I do feel sorry for the lad. I was as lazy, ignorant, and un-motivated as he is. But based on what I've heard the poor lad has been mothered into autism and doesn't seem to have the mean streak needed to slap himself out of banality. Condolences to him and his computer chair. (2) Now this issue is highly personal (not for me so fuck it). One mate thinks he's a hard - oops, I just ate my own poop..., true blue motherfucker (he has anger and bipolar issues and goes 110% when his authority is questioned). The other mate is a creepy, semi-drug addict (Imagine a poor Hunter S. Thompson caricature). Now the first mate has a girlfriend (painfully entitled, rich family, unfit, emotionally unstable). On New Years she claimed the second mate (let's call him Gonzo) sexually assaulted her. However it turned out all Gonzo did was kiss her on the lips after giving her a lift home while turnt as fuck (may I add after she asked for a kiss on the cheek). The second mate (Let's call him Caesar) has gone full testosterone. The girlfriend claims she has been assaulted before (unverified) and suffers from bipolar (also unverified and also convenient (but that's unverified also)). Both Gonzo and Caesar have dealt with it poorly and irrationally. Firstly Caesar said he would attack Gonzo before any rebuttal was given. Because of that Gonzo offered to literally duke it out at the netball courts (these are employed adults btw) because he'd rather do that than acknowledge inferiority. A split has occurred. Both of them are vital cogs in the social network I inhabit. But both of them are unable to talk rationally and avoid emotion. I am in the maelstrom of a shit-storm created by 3 dissonant brains, unable to deductively view the world or their opinions. It's times like these I'm proud that I've avoided parasitic women and addictions that warp the subconscious into inductive reasoning. Pray for Mojo (3) This is a mild slight but my good mate is rooting this chick whose banging hot and quite clearly a fiend at the horizontal tango. I've heard him say he doesn't want a relationship but they're always together. She's giving me the looks fellas but there's friendship concerns in the matrix (see above) and I don't want to risk a fine partnership being squandered by petty urges. My birthday is approaching, what should I do people I know anonymously on the internet?
He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

+xWGMG: When you're having a shower and certain drip-fed bastards decide to do their dishes purely with hot water Hey, at least they're washing up!! :lol: Wrt #3, just ask your mate if he has any worries with you having a crack, and note that he has said he's not serious with it. Just say you're interested in seeing if there's potential there, and he'll let you know if it's a go or not. #2 fark me, good luck with that one! One piece of advice I'll give is when they DO duke it out at the courts, make sure you film it in LANDSCAPE, otherwise what's the fxxxing point. #1 seems like he'll find himself, some time, somehow.. honestly, a girl/boyfriend will probably be the thing that will one day fix him.

WGMG: The car park at my local train station was recently redone to allow more parking spaces but that has apparently only increased the attractiveness of driving to the station to get the train to the city. Everyday more cars turn up turning the tiny suburb I where I live into a car park. Now its near impossible to find a parking spot on the street if you get home before 6-7pm. The train catchers make it worse with how they park too. Out the front of my house you can easily fit two long tray utes or three smaller cars. They always seem to park in a way that it is impossible to fit any other car in that space.
WGMG: People parking too close to intersections. Getting onto the highway is always a problem as trucks like to stop at the shop before the intersection. With all the flags and paraphernalia that the shop has it gives you 20m of visibility trying to merge with cars and trucks doing 100km/h in an 80km/h zone.

WGMG: Greenpeace, literally a bunch of terrorists who if half their members had their way, half the population of Africa would be dead by Christmas. Started from good intentions but have been corrupted by scientifically illiterate morons. When your own co-founder goes around the world telling people not to listen to you anymore, something has gone seriously wrong.
