Insulation hack: Cut the sealed sides off of a garbage bag and open it to the size of an extra long rectangle then tape it onto the wooden sill of the window covering the window from top to bottom.

You can use clear, white, gray or black depending on the amount of privacy you want.

Thanks!

Why be jealous of an overachiever?  Why not just step up your game?

Well, that was fast.  The FCA guys were here for all of 10 minutes.  Contacted me to let me know they were here, looked at the roof, chatted amongst themselves and departed.

Omg hanging out with my coworker and I don't even know how this happened but she's really odd and high or crazy or something.  She said she wanted to talk about stuff that happened at work between me and the other waitress. This is weird she's weird. Call my phone and make something up

Omg girl! It was a shit show.  My friend Dee and her hubby actually saw me outside while driving by, we had a whole sidewalk-car at red light conversation 🤣 but I yelled to her call me in 15 minutes 🤣 lol. I probably should have taken my phone off silent. 

I have to share this shit show story because it was so bad. So, she picked me up now I know she's got quirks , like we all do but I did not know she was whatever she was. So she wanted to go somewhere close and there's a bar my friend from next door and I have went to for dinner and a little drink a couple times but I never hung out on the weekends there until tonight because I haven't been going out like that. She orders food, wine, glass after glass, keeps ordering my drink and ordered me food I wasn't even hungry and don't eat carbs, than she starts telling me how everyone at work loves me but than starts telling me why I fucking suck and she says and Amy hates you. Amy is the waitress I had the little argument with, actually it wasn't an argument she snapped on me and started yelling at me in the middle of the restaurant and embarrassed herself because I snapped right back.  I grabbed my purse,  my coat and was like I'm not going to put up with your rude disrespect, there are too many jobs out there for that. I tried to quit. Boss wouldn't let me, she made me stay and an hour later me and Amy was absolutely fine. Joking and stuff again.  Anyway she started talking shit about Amy being a bitch but than called Amy nice because I told her I didn't have a problem with Amy in general but I won't tolerate her bs. She's all happy because I stood up to Amy and noone else does, they just don't go back to work. Anyway she keeps drinking and starts telling me I should rent a room from her because I pay to much for my apartment..I'm just like ok um..I was just like ok thanks. In one ear and out the other. Omg so I was outside smoking and some guy literally come out of nowhere and started joking around with me, chatting,  whatever he was like hey can I come in here with you,  is this a good bar? I'm like you can do whatever you want, oh can I sit with you I was like..sure..I thought he would save me from this nightmare by idk talking to her too, anything,  I kinda was hoping she would be pisssed and say let's go when some dude comes to sit with us but she just got an attitude and kept talking but than she started being mean and rude to this guy! He was like um I'm trying to have a conversation with you and your being rude.  You don't have to be rude to me. Than an elderly lady brought us all three portraits that she drew of us and that became her new person to annoy. She kept drinking and she was having fun for a minute and then at some point she removed her socks and shoes and than started literally nodding out. Everyone was looking at her like wtf, the owner came to tell me to make her put her shoes back on and she's not driving home right,  of course not I was just going to have her sleep on my couch because she was...it had to be pills. It was probably opiates.  I kept trying to wake her up and she's like why, why do I have to put my shoes on, she almost fell out the chair,  I'm like omg this isn't just drunkenness.  She's really messed up. At one point she said that I went out to smoke with 2 guys and there was only one. I said where was the 2nd guy and she pointed next to her and noone else was there the entire night and that was before she got wasted. She kept falling asleep,  she threw her bill, I'm like the waitress needs u to pay..she couldn't comprehend anything.  I was outside again and started talking to that dude trying to figure out if I should call her bf or or what and this girl was out there and she was like what, what lady and I told her,  she goes,  that's like my stepmother,  she does this all the time,  my dad said she's gone 4 or 5 days sometimes,  she's wrecked like 5 cars he keeps buying her new ones, so the girl was like all super helpful and was called a lyft and paid for it she was like but u gotta get her out here she said she was assaulted by her in the past and wouldn't be able to take her in her car. She was embarrassed and I felt bad for her but relieved.  Well, the waitress came to find me and said I needed to take care of her and I'm like I'm trying to,  whatever,  so I am still trying to get her alert,  she heard me say Sarah's name and started flipping out on me, she goes I don't know you, go away, your ugly..she called me ugly like 10 times..the people next to her and behind her was so uncomfortable and I'm like getting upset because I can't make her behave,  she's like 60 years old. She kept calling me ugly and terrible mean things and I really was like so are you, you need help bad. I am trying to help you. Than she kept being so mean I got up and told her to go to hell. I walked towards the front door and told Sarah about it and I started tearing up because I can't help it hurt my feelings..no woman in my adult life has ever talked to me so nasty, except my mom and sister but that's family stuff and honestly she was much worse.  I would have been smacking a bitch for less in the  past. Out of all things to say she chooses ugly and it fucking hurt me frfr. I can't even explain. I felt humiliation,  I felt like a pussy ass bitch for not knocking the shit out of her but the thought of violence didn't even come to mind because I thought of her as a very sad, sick, helpless woman like my mom's age almost. I honestly feel so bad for her family members,  her significant other. I can't even process this night still. I walked away and told Sarah that I wasn't going to let her assault me too by the way she's acting.  I waited but she had to be escorted out by a man and a woman because she told the owner she didn't have to leave appearantly.  I was so embarrassed.  Tonight was a shit show. She's banned from the bar, they told me don't bring her back. I tried to explain and apologize for her behavior and I think her stepdaughter felt bad for me too and she had to basically let me know this is her pattern,  she can be sweet but she's psychotic and I said delusional too..she said yes when she's drinking and stuff she's horrible. I'm actually never going back to my job again. I don't ever want to see that woman ever. I can't even process tonight's fuckery. I probably won't even go back in that bar. 

Oh and, the elderly lady and myself ended up paying for her tab. 

It's funny she walks around acting Bouche', nails done, nice car, talks like a "lady" and does all the things one would probably consider her a classy lady based on her outward appearance but that's as far as her level of class goes because she was a trashy human being.  I can't believe she has a man that loves her and puts up with that, well I guess if I wasn't an  "ugly" piece of trash someone could love me like obviously this poor man does her. Wow, unfuckingbelievable.

First off, don't put yourself down.  Here's a little drunken knowledge: when a person is stone out of their mind and calls you something negative, it's because you are the opposite and they are jealous of you.  That woman saw something in you that she wishes she had, so in her "sober state", she asked you to the bar because of those qualities she admires in you.  Unfortunately, once she was in her "drunken state" or "incoherent state", she attacked you because she knows that she is lacking those qualities that she likes and admires about you.

 

Honestly, if she was like this sober, I would be afraid of her.  Think "Single White Female".  You obviously have something that she knows she will never have.  People like that try to surround themselves with people who have those qualities they are missing.  Sadly for her, she attacks the very thing she is seeking to acquire.

 

What you need to do is NOT quit your job over this.  You show up strong.  This will let her know you are NOT a pushover.  Stand your ground!  It belongs to you regardless of anyone else.  If she tries to talk to you, let her know that you do not put up with people who behave like that; that you will work with people professionally, but that you do not have to socialize with them.

 

I have been in a situation where a verbal attack on me embarrassed me, but I returned the next day, said my hellos to that individual and continued about my business.  Unfortunately, I have no memory of what I did, but Trene and a room of about 5 other ladies got to witness the altercation.  All I know is I got the girl to shut up before I came to my senses standing in the hallway, a few feet down from the room's doorway with Trene asking me if I was ready to go.  By the way, the girl in the room was in the wrong.

She's probably jealous of my ability to stay sober. Lol. This woman was so out of her mind she was telling the guy that we met in the bar to shut his fucking mouth,  be quiet everytime he talked about something,  he was like I'm trying to be nice to your friend but it's hard when she keeps talking to me like that. 

So, the nodding out thing was a trigger for her which I'm guessing is because she's heard it before. I mean she was harping on me about being too slow entering the orders and how I always ask them if they need help (appearantly trying to be helpful is obnoxious and that's why Amy hates me and nobody likes me but than everyone loves me? I'm so confused, ) I said,  listen if I suck so bad than it's no big deal, I'll quit. Why won't Liz let me quit? I said,  do you not understand that you guys do drive through,  carry out and serve the floor all for server wages, you can go work drive through and make more money and I told her hostesses do the carryout most places and they don't get paid server wages because people don't tip so they get payed more hourly. I said this is just food, not brain surgery and not rocket science,  if I'm not working out than let me quit! Why won't they let me quit? I'm like you guys do all that for the little bit of money you get and it's not right I was like I'm not even like a waitress,  I used to be a social worker and I got hurt and so now I'm doing this to make a little extra money. I said but I don't need the bullshit. I can literally go anywhere else for way less drama. These bitches treat me like I'm stupid. I feel like she wanted me and Amy to fight because I kept saying that I like Amy,  she's good at her job and she was getting an attitude but than when I said but she's lucky that I didn't knock her the fuck out she got happy and was like trying to slap me 5 🤣 

In my head that's when I realized she's toxic and negative and likes drama. She was trying to get me to hate Amy. 

At this point,  I'm just ready to go back to human services because at least the people you work with are actually seeking help, they acknowledge that they have problems and want to be better people, which is unfortunately,  the exact opposite of what I'm dealing with now...and in general with covid it has created a  new world of mental health needs. Maybe I need to get back to it.

I have to admit, I have no idea how you have been able to go from one job to the other.  When I was looking for work, a hundred years ago, I was told that I might come across as unreliable or unstable if I listed all of my jobs on my résumé, even though it was due to the fact that I worked different jobs at college, depending on the semester and what work was available at the time.

I think I have termites. I was cleaning behind my sink like and the baseboard was loose, well I had to move the whole thing off as it was detached due to a combo of water and torn up, moldy looking wood. It was an absolute mess to get it up. Like little brown specs of wood or something all over.

You might have what we called "wood crawling worms".  They are tiny and leave work powder.  If you had termites, you would definitely know.  They bore holes and gouge out wood.

If the area was built "low cost", then you probably have low grade particle board.  It looks like compressed sawdust that turns dark brown when wet.  It falls apart because it is only held together by glue and milled compression.

Formica. I texted him about it and he was already around here anyway so he came to check it out.  He's going to get me another one. That and my toilet seat I been waiting on.

I hope he is not going to get you a roll of Formica and expect you to adhere it to the surface of whatever it is that it came off of.  He is going to do the work, right?
