How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

[Rome's rightful successor]

During my downtime I've met some cool people from a group event. They were very fun to be around and I believe I've made some new friends.

 

[Brain Power]

What a mess the weekend was for everything. At least I had fun seeing a certain group shooting themselves in the foot. Why would you shove the national flag up your ass? That's a crime, you know?

So I find venting here to be helpful because either I’m screaming into the void or I’m getting advice, either way it’s therapeutic.
Since the farmers have been down in the past few days I’d thought I’d give an update.

I started the last class I need to graduate, work is getting less stressful, and I’ve been doing well in improving myself.

I enjoy venting on this thread. It genuinely feels like I’m getting what I ask for here.

Woke up at 12 and found the Farms is back online again.

Without going into to many specifics because we're currently under fire from troons I apologize for vague posting. So I started some seasonal work a while back a few months ago. Today I just had my first Karen moment, as I wouldn't serve a woman and her kid because my supervisor came by to tell me to close up for the day. To elaborate I wouldn't mind being open a little longer, however the area that I'm responsible for needs to be checked by other foremen before they leave and continuing to operate would prevent them from leaving on time.

I told this lady and her kid "no, I'm sorry, I have to close now. I don't have a choice". And her and her kid proceeded to hang around me while I was taking count and doing my final checks passive aggressively calling me a "mean person" to her kid for not understanding what fucking "we're closed" means.

Though it's not all bad though. Some kids are pretty cool. There was a girl I saw wearing a Pokemon hat and she told me her favorite pokemon was Eevee.

I think my interview today went quite well. Despite being nervous I think I got on really well with both of the interviewers to the point where it went on longer than expected. On top of that I received another call this morning to interview for another company.

Pretty fucking annoyed. The missus took her car for it's MOT a while ago and they said a boot on the drive shaft needed replacing and wanted £130 for it. Now I'm no mechanic but even I can do, so I do. I decided to take her car to the local tip on Sunday to get rid of a stupid wardrobe that her sister "gave" to us (pushing her shit on us) that I told her wouldn't fit in the kids room and I apparently can't burn and I hear a knocking everytime I go over a bump. Turns out she forgot to tell me or the garage about it so now I've got a new job.

On Monday I woke up and immediately, before I could even take a piss I was told that the kids had done something and I wouldn't be happy. They broke the 4K 144hz monitor that I bought a few months back. I'm not angry they broke the monitor, accidents happen, I break shit all the time but I've told the kids not to fuck around in the office. So I either replace the panel (probably not happening) or buy a new one.

I've been riding my bike since COVID started and I've been enjoying it but my bike has seen better days. I bought like 10 years ago and it's long past needing any maintenance that isn't 3 in 1 oil or WD40. The whole thing has been like Pandora's box, somehow the bolts on my rear brake have come loose and the fluid has been leaking. In the process of replacing the fluid I broke the foot and found out that the bolts that hold on the lever is made out of cheese and one of my spokes has at some point snapped.

One of the lightbulbs in the hallway has needed replacing for some time now. When I tried to replace the bulb I found out that the little contacts in the socket are missing. Why? How?

My freight forwarder is taking their sweet ass time finding a flight for an outbound shipment that's already a week past the due date because they fucked up getting an inbound shipment of parts through customs.

My shithead coworker has not been fired according to co-owner of my workplace, but is rather suspended without pay until the latter says it's okay for him to come back (how the fuck does that even work?). Eventually, he will return and I will go back to being miserable at a job I've come to like for the past month.

Also, my landlord is selling the house I've been renting out of for the past five months and while the new owner is giving me assurances that my rent will stay the same, I'm worried things will change for the worse in this economy and I will be forced to start looking for a new apartment all over again.

 

[Ughubughughughughughghlug]

I feel like a mountain of rage. I go to bed angry, wake up angry, stay angry through the day, and the anger makes me feel sick and drained.

 

[Abella]

So far going back to school has been pleasant, but then I find out I’m going to be a dad.

 

[Shitted Scaredless]

Parents still haven't made up their mind about their damn relationship. I understand these things are complicated but for fucks sake.

I think I figured out why I had "food poisoning" last week and why I have "food poisoning" again tonight (this is way worse than last week's though): I tried shrimp for the first time last week. Not very much, only one piece of shrimp tempura, and it didn't really leave an impression on me. So earlier tonight in an attempt to see if maybe I'd prefer a different restaurant's tempura, I had a bite, not even a full piece, of my SO's shrimp tempura. Now a few short hours later and I'm super sick all over again and my SO's completely fine just like last time too I've never stumbled upon a food allergy like this before. Knowing both times have been self-inflicted and were easily avoidable is so frustrating.

Extremely sad, 2 hours ago I found out that a girl I love is now dating a guy so I've just been lying on my bed looking at the ceiling while I tell myself that I'm a coward and an idiot because I never told her what I felt for her and now it's too late, I genuinely fell in love with her, just being in the same room as her made feel warm, but now I feel nothing but sadness and a feeling of impotence, this fucking sucks and I hate it.

i just wanted go to out at 3 am and buy some goddamn cherry soda but it kept declining my card even though i have enough man fuck man shit dawg

 

[GuitarRevi]

I'm doing better boys, got over that whore in sheep's clothing and I've got a date on Monday.

 

[soft breathing]

I don't want to PL or talk about it, but I am very disappointed and hurt right now.

So I made myself some comfort food & hot tea and just try to not overthink shit.

Found out my paternal grandfather died. Except somehow the family were not informed when it happened which was June last year, we only found out yesterday. Dunno where his remains are. Reckon my dad and siblings are probably gonna persue legal action cause Jesus H Christ how does this happen.

 

[A Grey Cat]

Going out of my mind with worry. I'll try not power level so in short...I can't tell if I have plantar fasciitis, Plantar warts, or melanoma. My problem could range from a beinin condition caused by ill fitting shoes and being on my feet 5 days a week, or a cancer that can turn malignant in as little as six weeks! My health benefits from work don't kick in till I'm in the union and that can take a month or two.....so I'm gonna find a Dr's office tomorrow and ask for a physical, even if i have to pay for it. Hopefully it won't break my bank too much, but then again that won't mean shit if i end up dying of undiagnosed skin cancer.

Just found out that I’m receiving my Computer Information Systems certificate soon after working hard for it for over a year. Could have done better in a few courses, but it’s still pretty exciting, to be honest.
