RIP Patrick Swayze


Today the world lost one of the last great actors. Patrick Swayze passed away today at the age of 57, in his home in California. The article on Google lays it out for you, but this is my two sense.

Patrick Swayze is and always will be one of the greatest actors of my era. There aren't many out there who come close to him. Considering I was born in 1980, and am a classic movie lover, the golden age of Hollywood boasted the best actors of all time, Mr. Swayze was the best of the best, acting, singing, and dancing, just like old Hollywood.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, Lisa Niemi, and his family today. Rest in peace, Patrick.

Jackson Hewitt is NOT the place to go to get your taxes done anymore

So I went to Jackson Hewitt to get my taxes done because they have always been good to me. Well this year they switched banks so they no longer do instant refunds or next day, you HAVE to wait 72 hours, or so I was told. Well it has been 97 hours since my taxes were done and they are now telling me that Saturday and Sunday do NOT count as days anymore. Really? SO, now I HAVE to wait till tomorrow. I was completely IRATE so I was glad to tell the several people waiting to do their taxes to go to Check City or H&R Block to do their taxes where they will get their money back when they are told that they will. The Jack (that's what I call people who are jack a$$e$ to me) in the office then decides to yell at me about how wrong it was for me to cause them to lose several customers. I told them it was wrong of them to lie to me and tell me 72 hours when it is going to take 120 hours. If my money is not there tomorrow, I will be sitting outside their offices till I have to go to schoo

I Hate My Job... Old post recycled from 8/24/14 AKA The ugly truth about customer service over the phone

I know no one wants to hear me complain about my job, so this is your only WOB warning. This is a major rant. So major I wrote in in word before I copied it to Blogger. This is why I hate my job. I used to love helping people; my job makes me feel bad about it now. I sit in a cubicle, in a row of twelve cubicles, staring at a small monitor, connected to a slow running machine, in a warehouse filled with these same rows. The only change is the daily move from row to row so you never sit in the same place twice in a week. This is supposed to be meant for moral, so we don’t get bored with our jobs. They constantly upgrade the software we use to make our jobs “easier” and “more efficient”, when in reality all it does is make it harder to attain these high standards they set because they refuse to spend the money to upgrade the hardware required to run the software. This is what we as reps must maintain for goals daily, weekly, and monthly: Average Handle Time (AHT) – no more than 530

Things are looking up!

In less than four days I will be moving my family out of the crummy hotel and into a decent apartment. And in 12 days, I will be marrying the love of my life. So much to do and so little time to do it in. I stopped blogging for a while because my sibs were stalking my blog and telling friends I had known for a long time that I was crazy. I let those go that decided to believe them over me and kept those that knew me better than that. This is my blog, my therapy, my life. Now that they don't have mommy and daddy to take advantage of, they're looking to cause trouble. They have people I was very close to totally snowed. Not my loss, it's theirs. I'm happy now and they're pissed because I've gotten over being their family. They're pissed because I'm standing on my own two feet and I don't need them. My fiance and I are so happy. It's been a long time coming but we're making the right decision for our family. Only three people will be missing fro
