Hugs and good vibes needed...
subtitled: Just how much stress can FTA take before she cracks up?

The job: If you want me to fix things, TRAIN me on how to do it! Please? Is this so goddamned hard? Throwing me into the digital phone queue without training is doing a disservice to you and the customer! And calling the tech support line is a bandaid at best, too. And don't even get me started with my average handle time stats.

The car: It died on me a week ago Thursday. No start. Took it to get it fixed. Took an entire week. $2000 dollars, and it still has a problem. They're nice enough to work with me on paying for it, but I still had to come up with $700.

The bills: $400 dollars worth from this check, which thanks to item 2, I can no longer pay.

So, if you could spare me a vibe or three, I could really, really use it now.

Under pressure,
K.

I'd like to spring a few $$, but we're in the same boat.

Best of luck!

3. My dear From The Ashes...
Troubles never seem to come along by themselves, do they?

It's always in groups!

Vibes and hugs to you, sweetie...

4. Been there.
It sucks.

Employers suck generally.

Car problems suck.

Financial problems suck...I'm feeling the pinch myself right now.

You are not alone.

As far as the job situation about not being trained....I FUCKING HATE THAT!!!

Hang in there kiddo...you will be ok. :hug: :hug:
