« on: February 14, 2009, 04:50:36 PM »

Nothing really special or surprising about the post and at first I tought it was just some average DUmmie.

Now I wonder if aplhafemale is the spouse or Blues90 or TheStraightStory.  :lmao:

Not laid off. Fired.

All through the years we have been together he has usually never managed to keep a job longer than 6 months.

I really don't want to do this anymore. We were barely getting by as it is. Actually, I CAN'T do this anymore. The last time he pulled a stunt like this was about 2 years ago and I was able to work 6 days a week 10 hrs a day for about 18 months to make up the difference while he piddled away at a part time job he slacking for about 2 days a week or so. I also peddled my plasma at one of those vampire places. That type of overtime just isn't available anymore even if I were inclined to do it and I absolutely refuse to pimp my bodily fluids again.

If I had a little money set aside I would be already looking for an apartment on my own.

As it is both of our 200K mileage plus cars are in the shop with no real prospect of getting them fixed anytime soon...especially now. We are currently borrowing a friends car for $10 a day.

I feel like a trapped animal and I hate it.

Thanks for reading to the end of this self-indulgent vent. It feels a little better to just hint at what I know in my heart I need to do for my own dignity and sanity. I just have no idea how on earth I am going to go about doing it at this point.

Thanks ahead for the vibes I know will be sent my way.
25 years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope.  Now we have Obama, no hope and no cash.

 you know, I've never questioned the truthfulness of posters he4re or over there until lately. Now, there were a few that fibbed, but mostly, what they revealed about their lives was/is true. But these DU schmedericks seem to lie about EVERYTHING, making me think that ever this story os very "bent". Hell, she's prolly not even married!

The reason for the alpha "male/female/tranny/fag/gender confused" dog role in the pack is to protect and provide for the pack.
Shut the eff up dog, and get back to work. Your family is hungry and needs food and shelter.

I must confess I've had numerous career incarnations myself.

My longest career was in the restaurant business which started tending bars in fine Italian diners and culminated in a 3 and a half year stint as a manager.

After that I went to the wonderful world of banking. Nice hours but the wages were crap.

From there I was spied by a mortgage broker and asked to become his loan processor. The guy was a crook, dirty as the day is long and a liberal...typical of the whole CRA debacle.

Then I went to a fine art company as warehouse help and by the end of the first week I was logistics manager. I loved that job. I've held original Salvador Dalis and Rockwells and Alexandra Nikitas etc. Alas, their inventory was out of control and I fought the sales director day and night to figure out what they owned vs what they owed. He refused and ultimately fired me over the protests of the owner....2 months later the company was tits-up.

I came out to Colorado and started with Halliburton. The hours are long, the work gruelling and hazardous, the conditions are miserable...

...but I genuinely love my job. I work with my hands but there's plenty of brain candy to keep the mind busy and your team becomes more than a team. If not for Nat'l Guard committments in 2 weeks I would be going to Montana with them for 3 weeks and I'm actually depressed I'm not going. I tried very hard in my early life to live up to my family's expectations of being white-collar but I've always been miserable and hated going to work every day. I dare say nowadays...I'm happy. My only complaint in life is my shoulder is holding me back from working as hard as I would like to.

Nonetheless I've always stayed employed. It took a long time to find my niche; hopefully the OP's husband will too. Yet the money hatin libs seem very materialistic about whom to spread their legs for.

13. So sorry, alpha... so many women are in this situation.
 This is always the case for women, but more so now.

It's hard for us to stay away from men unless they are grownups, but it's something we must learn to do.

Best to you....

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

There in lies the difference between conservative babes and liberal whores!

Our women tend to land hard working men who take pride in supporting their families, while liberal c***s tend to enjoy the company of slackers, waiting for the government to provide them a living!

Wonder why they end up unhappy?  :hammer: :lmao:

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Nancyboy McFagstick should at least be able to buy a case of cheap beer and fix the cars on the weekend with his buddies.

Why are liberals so bereft of self-reliance?

Or am I being redundant?

The first is almost invariably an indicator of serious fraud, floppy-ears; the second part is always the outcome if the owner doesn't recognize the signs in time.

I'm pretty sure the owner saw the train wreck coming but the way the by-laws were written she was powerless short of going to war in the courts.

I can't say I wouldn't have been tempted to let it go and walk away with my share and drop the rest in his lap.

That is why I am proud to become a Navy wife next month. My conservative man has one hell of a work ethic (and is not bad looking either) and is proud to serve the good people of this country.
Of course the transition from active duty to dependent wife is going to be interesting for me. :o

Hey Snuggles...you be careful around those frac jobs.

"Sometimes it's just not your day."
Unless the iron had in internal defect (as opposed to washed-out, which should be duly inspected and replaced) such things are never just an accident; usually only inattention/carelessness can expain it.

The only time the ground operator should be near the wellhead is when opening or closing valves.
