Title: Fed Up with Irresponsible People
Post by: Stormchild on August 03, 2005, 08:38:50 PM

To quote Linus from Peanuts: "AAAUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!"

I am SO FED UP with people who spend ten times as much time and energy trying to avoid their responsibilities as it would take them to just.... shut up, sit down, quit whining, do what they are supposed to do and get it over with.

Especially when they try to make ME the bad guy for insisting that problems be solved, issues be faced, etc.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

It's very hard to just accept things I can't change when I'm the one stuck with the consequences if I don't change them!

thanks for listening. Please believe and accept that I am assessing the situation accurately, that I have no authority to change it,  and that I'm stuck with it for the time being. So really, all I want is to be listened to and heard. I'll deal with it, I always have, I just need to blow off some steam.

Thanks, people.

Let it all out.  That's what we are here for. 

Glad to see you.

Sorry your ticked off though.

Take care.

thanks Mia

I'd be more worried if I weren't ticked off... because then I'd think the behavior was OK... sometimes anger is the correct response. It's a boundary  :D

I agree- after many years of thinking anger was a bad thing- it's necessary to set those boundaries.

Vent away, that's what we're here for!
