Bite Me!
 

Where did our bite me thread go? Are we just more calm this month? Because I have a big one I'd like to share with you all, and I apologize to any of our religious alternachicks if I offend you, but the actions of the person who can bite me offended me! :)

So, I'm standing waiting for my bus, which is rounding the corner and about to pull over to pick me up. This car pulls over to the side of the road just a bit ahead of me, and this lady opens her door causing a school bus to have to swerve to avoid making her into a stain, and came over to me. I figure she's lost and needs directions or something, so I let my guard down and took off my headphones (which are like a bulletproof vest if you're on the bus, let me tell you *L*) and she pulls out her little papers and procedes to start telling me about god!!!
I was completely dumbfounded. First off, my bus is about to pick me up. Secondly, she endangered other drivers on the road to pull over and sell me her religion! I curtly advised her that my bus was here and I was not interested, but thank you just the same.
Then to further add to my aggrivation she slowly gets back into her car, while my bus has to wait behind her, and then they pull over to try someone else standing on the road and my bus has to wait again for them to open their door and endanger even more drivers. I was furious.
I guess I feel it's okay door to door because I can always say no and shut the door, but when I'm cornered and have no where to hide - it's just inappropriate. And so, that lady who tried to tell me what god can do for me, can bite me!

(and isn't it always the case that you come up with a great comeback after the person is gone, because i'd like to have told her that god can give me free choice to make up my mind on religion and his followers. so there!)

ok. rant over. someone else's turn.

EEEEEK :yikes: I can't believe that lady did that - maybe she has a death wish and is in a hurry to get to heaven? :lol: unfortunately she could have endangered other people too! :fr:

Religion pushers can Bite me too!

Everyone is entitled to their own belief system and I respect that so why can't they respect me too? In fact on the way home from WW last night my friend and I walked past a man who said "Jesus loves you!" as we walked past so I said "thank you!" to him and smiled at him and that was it - he just wanted to tell people that and was not bothering them with paraphenilia or telling people about his religion - in fact having him say to to us was kind of nice :)

She doesn't need to "Bite you" she can get you killed anyway! Maybe she is an angel of 'im upstairs wanting to recruit more inmates. One thing is for sure she should not be driving. People of that persuasion are pretty selfish too. The road my aunit lives i has private parking but there is a church at the end of the road and they double and treble park along the road.

What really get smy goat is having to fill in forms on behalf of people who should be filling it in but won't and won't give you the nec info either! I am filling in a form at the moment to recruit some staff and have to "justify" why we want them! I wonder what they'd do if we decided not to employ anyone else as it is too much hassle!!

People who MOCK/mimic and copy everything you do..can Bite me! My MIL does that with everything of mine. I swear when she comes in my house, she 'goes shopping' looking at everything I own and then....suddly she has something JUST like it in her house. Drives me NUTS! Get your OWN style WOMAN!

PANTYHOSE can BITE ME! They are always popping runs or getting twisted up or sagging at the ankles. I HATE 'EM. My hose today decided that they wanted to stop being stretch around the waist and are trying to fall off my A**! I have them pinned to my skirt, but if those pins POP, somebody is gonna get a big surprise!

LOL! I am afraid that the word "Pantyhose" is very amusing to us Brits. We call them tights. I always think of pantyhose as a slightly risky word.

I warned my friend when she went to work in Florida that she would have to wear the blasted things (we don't always here) . SHe thought I was kidding until she got to work there.

We call them tights or nylons here in Canada :) You are right, "panty hose" does sound funny! :lol:

I personally think that the darned things should be written off as a business expense on working women's income tax forms! :D

and the words "one size fits all" can BITE ME! cause they do noT fit all!!!! :mad:

Just wear pants! That'll take care of it. :) That's what I do. The thing that really bugs me is "Queen" size - And no matter how big of a size I get too big the legs are too long and the waist is too small. I hate it!

By the way, an american translation: Panty hose are the thin ones, also sometimes called nylons. Tights are the cloth ones usually worn by little girls taking ballet classes. :)
If I could find cloth ones in my size I would wear them, at least they don't fall apart when you look at them wrong.

Just wear pants???? Are you crazy? :o

I am NOT running my butt off, doing squats, and goodness knows what other types of leg exercises just to hide my legs in pants! I come up short in the bust and butt department so legs are all I got to work with and believe me baby, I'm workin it! :devil:

DivaTiki

I HATE fire drills. I am not talking the ringing fire alarm/leave the building kind. I am talking about the "lets see how quickly and how much of a headache we can get and do a project that should take 2 weeks in one" kind.
:mad:

I wouldn't mind my job nearly enough if people were at least organized or, more importantly, could think far enough ahead to not cause such problems.

Work it girl!! :lol:

Squeak, Hope things get better around work for you. :)

People who don't pay their car bill and then call me up and cuss me out because the company I work for is reposessing their vehicle... can BITE MY ***!!!

okay, i am better for now. but seriously, what do people expect. pay your bill = we don't bother you. don't pay your bill = we come and get the property that is OURS until it's paid for. sheeeeeeeeeit.

i'm at work, can you tell? 15 more f-in minutes to go.

Dear mom: I love you, but brain chemistry and hormones being out of whack are legitimate reasons for crying all the time. I can't just smile and get over it. Bite me.

Dear DH-to-be: I love you, but I WANT TO SLEEP. Which I can't do if you're snoring. And I also can't sleep on the couch because the clock goes "TICK TICK TICK" every bloody second. Which is why I am STILL AWAKE AT 4:30 IN THE :censored: MORNING.

I think you should either sleep on the couch, or bite me.

my boss can bite me for scheduling me to work Christmas...and every other holiday for that matter! last year I only worked one, and now I am being forced to work 7!

Navi, lol. sounds like my hubby. i have to go to bed before him or else i can't sleep because he falls straight to sleep and then i have to lay awake and listen to him snore for hours.

Men can bite me! okay, maybe i might like that too much so how about men can step the *$(* off. (but only for a few days, okay?)

Bridal shop owner can BITE ME...
 

The owner of the store where I bought my wedding dress called to chew me out for telling one of his employees that he was acting unprofessional.

HE WAS. He was berating one of his employees right in front of 2 of my bridesmaids and myself.

So how does he go about making up for his lack of professionalism? He calls ME, at HOME, and *****es me out!

Tch Frogsy! I can't beleive that, but if the owner acts like that then no wonder the employee acts like that too - just don't recommend that store to any one you know who needs bridal attire.

Tiki - having a bad man day, are we? ;)

Income tax can bite me! Can you tell I am spending this week doing my taxes :lol:

okay, i like men today. so they can bite me. ;) Does that qualify for posting on the bite me thread?

:lol3:

Stress bunnies can bite me. I work with one and every time we have a manager's meeting he drives me absolutely nuts. This time, I deliberately did things at a slower pace, plenty of time to still get things done but slow enough to drive him insane. THEN I felt guilty because he stressed so bad, my boss sent him home. Of course once he got home, he kept calling the job asking if the project was done so he was STILL working my nerves. Go figure.

Tiki.

i've said it before, and i'll say it again....

customers.
can.
bite.
me.
:(


i just don't get it. if you're nice to me, i'll go out of my way to help you. i really will.
but if you're not - then i am going to do as very little as possible. period. and this goes for everyone in customer service. it's common sense. GRRRRRRRR!

That's so true. I had a customer on the line one day when I was working for a hotel chain and the hotel that he had chosen to stay in was on MLKing Jr. Blvd - a very nice part of town in this city. When he heard the street name, he asked me if there were a lot of N****S in that area cause he just couldn't stand them. I politely informed him that it was indeed a nice section of town, confirmed his reservations for the convention he was attending and then promptly deleted it as soon as he hung up. I checked back a few weeks later and the place was sold out and no, he did not have a room. JERK!

I hear you, or rather, I don't hear you. My DH is a world-class snorer, so I finally got rubbery earplugs, the kind sold for musicians who play a loud rock concerts. It's heaven. It's absolutely wonderful. It may have saved my marriage!

My My I'm new here (1st time obviously) and boy am I enjoying this thread....as soon as I can remember all the bite me's I have, b/c I have of course forgotten everything, trying to think of something, I'll be back!!! LOL

Good for you. Sometimes I am tempted to do stuff like that. I guess I haven't gotten to that point yet, since I've only worked at this for a couple months. In my old job I was always trying to find ways to "get back" which really is a terrible way to look at it. But you can only do customer service in one place for so long. :) I used to make sure people who did lots of returns didn't get their reciepts. Oh and there was this company who would call up to order supplies and want us to break all the rules for them and they would never have item numbers their order would be like "3 packages of sharpies" "paperclips" etc and they wanted us to hand pick them out of our stock. And for some reason management agreed. Everytime it was my turn I made a concerted effort to find the most expensive items I could find. :)

I need to find something i can do without getting caught. *LOL*

Oh my gosh Tiki! I cannot believe that man said that too you! What a jerk! :mad: Nice revenge though :rofl:

today my hubby can bite me for being such a slob. what is the point in busting butt to clean house 3 days only to have him just shed crap everywhere and go " i didn't realize" grr grr good thing he goes to work in an hour so i can stew and get over it.

bluegirl - glad i'm not the only one. Seems like mine makes a mess asfast (or faster!) than I can clean it up. Once when we just started living together I got really mad and stuck all his dishes on his side of the bed right on his pillow. He got the hint. For a while... but they have temporary amnesia at times. *L*
Going on strike for a while sometimes will help. Though for me I usually can't stand it for too long and end up cleaning before he even notices that I've stopped. GRRR to boys. :(

Anyone that operates machinery designed to whack, blow, vacuum,
mow, cut or trim at 7 15 a.m. any blasted day of the week can
Bite Me.

Skew

Yeah Skew - I hate that - they can bite me too! :mad:

Ditto, and I would add jackhammers to the list.

Jack_Hammers most certainly! Right along with 3 a.m. street
cleaning machines and people that rev the car, truck engine
while they "work" on said car truck engine. Over and Over.

6:30_ on a_weekend _morning.

Thanks for the agreements *g* Nice to not be alone in this most
reasonable quest for silence being golden before 8 am.

There are of course, many many more bite me's... :D

Skew
fall asleep? 5 20 am
attack of the weeds? 7 15 am
plotting revenge?
priceless

Telephone soliciting companies who call while...

a) you are cooking dinner
b) you are eating dinner
c) at 9 am on Saturdays and Sundays

or who will not take no for an answer and call your house 4 times in one week

can BITE ME!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:


P.S. Skew I live in an apartment building and I make it a point NOT to do any vacumming, furniture moving or hammering before 10:00 a.m. on weekends even if I am up at 7:00 a.m.. I just wish other people were as considerate and not do these things before 10:00 am. or after 11:00 p.m. too. I have woken up to hammering at 12:30 a.m. a few times ....GRRRR! Those people can BITE ME! too :mad:

The company I currently work for can bite me. While, I have been told I will still have a job, the current team I work on is being dissolved and sent to another state. They can also bite me for leaveing a bunch of people in limbo. We know we won't be getting new work, but don't know when we will really be no longer needed, or what we will be doing in the future.

That sucks Squeak! :mad:

sqeak, hope things work out for you.
gotta hate those telemarketers ( really mean evil bill collectors) I had one that spent an hour trying to tell me to borrow money from family and friends.usually i just hang up. but she was so persistant. and i thought it was a bit absurd to tell me to borrow money from friends/family to pay a debt. as if i would. well if i did it would be my choice not some pushy bill collector.
and on the note of banging. my landlord lives upstairs. and he is our local mr fixit. so i am always hearing banging hammering and such at odd hours. or odd for me. for a while my daughter wouldn't go to bed by herself because of the monster upstairs. one day my hubby was playing music while showering at 4 pm. and this landlord had nerve to call down here and tell him to turn it down. it wasn't even that loud. but geez. what about the hammering?

Thanks Heather & Mauvais. Hopefully we will be getting some answers in the next few weeks.

Tiki! That's DISGUSTING! I can't believe there are people who still use that word. :mad: Well, yes I can, but we don't hear it up here. Good for you! I would have done the same thing. :grouphug:

Squeak, hugs and prayers... I hope you get good news soon, sweetie. :grouphug:
