i work at a kids toy store and currently, during back to school season, it seems to be the season of grandmothers who just want to make my life as hard as humanly possible. i normally deal with it alright but this morning i just had one lady who… she came up with her husband and her two grandsons, the first thing she does is look at the toys at the front of the shop and go, very irritated
“they were cheaper online”
which, they’re not, i know. she complains that we made them more expensive in the store to rip her off. we didn’t, they’re the same price online. i told her that if she can show me that on the website they’re the price she claimed ($22 instead of $27 for one of them) and it’s not listed as an online exclusive sale then i would honor it because that’s what we’re supposed to do
she pulls out her phone, tells me she’ll “show me where it is” and proceeds to google our company name and then scroll through google images and starts getting huffy when she can’t find it. great.
so finally they get all their stuff picked out and she’s asking me a ton of questions, which is fine, but she’s being super rude about it, which isn’t fine. we give out these little freebies with every purchase, super cheap little things and she starts going, “oh my grandson is special so he always gets two” which is fine, we don’t strictly limit them to one per person he can have two if he wants i literally don’t care so i’m like, “okay awesome we’ll make sure he gets two!”
i help them pick out their toys and everything and when we go up to checkout. this old woman says, “we also want to order something online” which is fine, we do that all the time if we don’t have it in the store and if you order and pay in the store for it you get free shipping if your total is over a certain amount (including what you bought in that purchase in the store) which hers was.
but to have something be shipped to your house, you have to provide some basic information. a name, an email, a phone number and an address. this woman… first off she says, “well i don’t have an email! we don’t believe in email!”
and so finally we sort this out and get the kids’ mom to ok using her email on it. then i ask her for the rest of the info and it turns out she doesn’t know: her address, her phone number, her zip code, what city she lives in or basically anything required for ordering something that will be shipped to your house.
thirty minutes and quite a lot of text correspondence with her daughter later, i’m completely sure i have her street address right, pretty sure about the city she lives in, and so so on the zipcode and phone number. now, you’re thinking, you can look up a phone number in a phone right, she has a phone…
that she absolutely would not let me come near and told me she didn’t want anyone to see her personal stuff. which is fine but me attempting to verbally explain how to find her phone number on her phone got us nowhere because she couldn’t follow my instructions.
then, she becomes extremely suspicious about paying. she argues with me that there is no enter button on the pin pad despite me describing it and its location extensively and keeps just trying to press the screen, which doesn’t work that way on that prompt. eventually the pin pad times out so i offered to come around and show her where the enter button is and help her out and she got extremely angry at me for trying to “steal her information” so i just ask her to slide her card again and explain the pin pad timed out.
she immediately accuses me of charging her twice and tells me that if she finds out it had charged her bank account twice there would be “hell to pay” which i doubt because given her level of technological competence, i could probably have charged her bank account 20 times and she wouldn’t ever have noticed.
this time i try to point out which button she needs to press by blindly indicating it on the pin pad that i could not see and she got mad at me again for trying to “mess up her transactions” and accused me of trying to “con her out of money” by “pressing buttons” which i didn’t press and patiently explained that she would have to press herself (not policy but i figured it couldn’t hurt to let her believe it was) because i didn’t want to mess up her transaction
eventually we get to the end of it and she demands i give her a copy of the receipt from “when it didn’t work before” and wouldn’t hear it when i tried to explain that her payment just didn’t go through so there was no other receipt. eventually i just covertly rang up an empty transaction and voided it so i could show her a receipt that said the transaction was “voided” so she “wasn’t charged twice” which she seemed to accept and walk away
she said she was coming back to have us help her with what she’d ordered (we also help assemble toys in the store) so………… great

I really don’t know where else to vent but on tumblr. I have always used tumblr as an outlet for venting and I’m reaching a point where I really just need to write out how I’m feeling, without cramping my hand writing with pen and paper.
I feel really lonely as far as friends go. I have an AMAZING group of friends, but so many of them live far away. I have my tribe and I feel I will always have that, but its never the same as having lady friends, I literally have like three or four ladyfriends that I can actually hang out with in person, and only one of them is someone I didnt meet through my boyfriend first. its not that I have anything I want to share behind him, its that I always feel like on some level they’re always more his friend than mine- and at that, I didn’t choose most of them to be in my life, they were given to me. don’t get me wrong, I’m SO grateful for anyone I do have currently in my life. I just don’t have any friends who truly understand me, and especially not that are into the things that I am. I would love so much to be able to be friends with another tattoo model in my area, and ACTUALLY genuinely have a real friendship. I emphasize ‘genuinely’ because this industry is FULL of backstabbing bitches that would throw you in front of a bus to get one more step ahead of you. I just want a girl I can hang out with all the time SO bad. and the one person here who is awesome, works like ALLLLL the time. it sucks pretty bad when you only have one true friend and they end up getting way too busy for you. she’s supposed to move away anyways she said, so I guess I better get used to it now anyways. I’m just so sad of having no girls to actually hang out with. Skyping with my best friend is great, but it just isnt the same- and a lot of time I do get put aside compared to actually going to hang out with people anyways. which i dont have here.
now, I’m SUPER introverted, nervous, shy, socially awkward AND anxious, and sometimes I have a hard time making normal conversation. in fact, I am always secretly bothered by the fact that I’m PRETTY SURE i have some form of Autism, but I would never actually say that I am being diagnosed, but I am terrified to find out. I once emailed a place to ask some questions and set an appointment, but I never heard back.. that was i think last year. Anyways, I don’t want a ton of friends or anything. I dont want to hang out every day- it’s exhausting. but I still want the option to be able to call someone up in those rare days where I do feel like going outside or seeing people, to actually have fun. I used to have that in New Jersey, my group of girls that I hang with an we all really support each other. I miss them so bad. I am SO homesick for like, the last two years now. I try not to think about it if I can help it, but I miss my friends, I miss my mom.. I hate that I’m missing my baby cousins grow up, I hate that I’ve FINALLY made a connection with some of my cousins and now I’ll rarely ever see them, I hate that I can’t do body suspensions more often, I hate that I don’t get to see my brother Sean when he visits... but most of all I do HATE New Jersey and could never live there. I just wish so bad it hadn’t been like 4-5 years since I’ve seen my friends and family. it hurts. I’m so homesick for just the strong friendships I have.
I just...know its possible. I know its possible to have the small group of friends I want. I just wish girls weren’t so...mean and competitive. I just feel so lonely. I feel like I don’t have anyone to hang out with thats a female. why is everyone so far away? I’m home alone all day every day. you’d think a puppy wouldve made me feel less alone, but really I’m a thousand times more stressed than ever. I wanted to move for a fresh start, to breathe, so enjoy peace...and as soon as I got here everyones over all the time and it just reminds me how I dont have friends of my own, and how my friends dont come to visit me, and how I never get a second to myself. I finally got the chance and heres this puppy. i love him with my life but I AM SO STRESSED!!! I’m with him 10-14 hours a day by myself and then half of the time I’m still the one dealing with him at the crack of dawn, too. I never get time alone unless he sleeps and then I have to walk on eggshells to not wake him up- AND I DIDN’T EVEN FUCKING WANT THIS!!! when I was forced to give up my other pupper, Hades, I said I never wanted a puppy again because IT IS TOO MUCH FOR ME. it puts me on edge and greatly disrupts my bipolar. i literally CANT handle it. I said I would get a dog no younger than 2 years old. I wanted a border coli so bad, maybe even a doberman because I still miss my old dog Max SO MUCH! I like bigger dogs and never really was a big fan of little dogs. I like a dog I can give a whole ass hug to, and feel protected by when I walk alone down a street with him. but no, Michael had to choose, he wanted a puppy, he wanted a small-type pure bred dog which means it’ll be twice as expensive twice as often with vet visits. but he wanted it. he insisted. and now, here we are, just like scooping the litter boxes for all 4 cats, its pretty much almost entirely left on me to do. for so so long I told myself “well he works and I dont really work, I’m home all day and hes not here much to have the time for it.” but you know what I realized? That when I worked full time at Starbucks, or when I worked two jobs at both the Smoke Shoppe AND Spencers, that I still put in the same amount of work as all of this- I was still expected to do all of this. at that, I am SO SICK AND TIRED of him asking me EVERY FUCKING DAY “will you mop today? will you do the laundry? will you do that dogs medicine? will you change the cat boxes?” periodically throughout every morning. like oh, I didn’t realize that I was a fucking 4 year old that needs direction on needing to do basic fucking cleaning tasks!!!!! the only reason I dont get to half that stuff most of the time is that I’m annoyed as fuck at being told what to do / treated that way, and that by the time he leaves for work theres been a whole fucking list of shit lined up that I now feel EXPECTED to do before hes home from work. it literally aggravates me SO MUCH just typing about it because im so fucking pissed off that he does this EVERYMOTHERFUCKINGDAY. it makes me feel angry and completely overwhelmed and then I just spend my entire day dreading it then rushing to do it right before he gets home from work. I just fucking hate it. like I’m fucking 25 years old, I know what the fuck to do to keep the fucking house clean, thanks.
at that, between the no friends, the fucking belittlement of being given a verbal list of chores every day, and the stress from puppy I absolutely did NOT ask for, I am feeling so depressed. I wanted a new house so I could ENJOY it, but instead any moment in my backyard is spent trying to get the puppy to stop eating random crap the people before us left- like glass, I cant enjoy how the inside looks because theres puppy training pads all over the floor which the floor is always dirty because of being in and out of the house with the puppy, or just even a moment of peace at all. like literally this defeated the whole entire purpose of wanting to move. its still a gazillion times better than the trailer, I still totally love this house, but because of my stress and loneliness level, I feel nearly just as depressed as before.
what doesnt help is lately Michael has been SO negative abut things. it’s like when I finally am enjoying myself, he comes through like a wrecking ball being negative, depressing, unsupportive, argumentative, and just plain giving off vibes that make me feel so down. He still makes me feel super happy like 98% of the time, but it is such a downer when hes being super negative about EVERYTHING. or when he gets my hopes up about things and then goes back on his word. he LOVES to tell me yes to shut me up then saying no when it becomes real, a mega part of why I haven’t gotten to visit my family in 4 years. and then he makes me feel SO bad about it. he has no problem bragging to everyone about a vacation, but when its just us suddenly its “I have to do this on my own” and “it’s expensive” like really? thanks for bragging about it for two months, waiting until we have it a month away to tell me its 100% on me to plan it, then complain about everything I tried to plan, WHILE making me feel like a complete and utter loser that I’m a failure at everything I try to do so now I don’t make any money. I literally fucking hate myself again. that’s where I’m at. I’m starting to find my body, my hair, my face- all of it repulsive. I hate how I look. I hate my hair and how my dreads are all lose, but I have to ask him for money to be able to fix my hair. he always tells me just ask and it isnt a problem but then when I do want to do things he makes me wait ages and puts it off or flat out complains- or if it all goes smoothly he throws it in my face the first fight we have. I just feel like such a fucking loser, that’s getting uglier by the day. and when I finally worked up the courage to go to the gym, its like pulling teeth to get him to go- I’ve been asking for a year and we STILL haven’t gone. I want to be a breakdancer SO BAD and I’ll never get to do that if I can’t go to the gym to work out. he tells me to just go but he doesnt understand that being a woman alone in public these days you’re at extreme risk of being raped and 10/10 multiple dudes will trying saying gross things and hitting on you/catcalling. I wish so so so so so bad I could go out for a day and have not a soul talk to me or look at me. what a dream that would be. I just cant go alone. its literally dangerous. scary.
I just feel so STUCK. I want to make money so I can contribute to the house and pay for what I need MYSELF. I never ever liked being someone who fully depends on someone like that. hell, a decade ago I refused to let anyone even get me a simple drink from a convenience store. it still feels uncomfortable to have to be like this. I want to be able to take care of myself. to know that if it was just me that I wouldnt just...be out on the streets. now I’m getting married and its a great relief that thats a less legitimate fear, but I still want to be able to take care of myself so that I could help my babe. he works SO hard for us and spends SO much money taking care of us, I just want to be able to pay my part of that and make HIS life easier, so that we BOTH can do more things that we like instead of just paying bills till the next check. I feel so useless and worthless. but everything I try to do I just fail at, or I’m too depressed and just lose the passion for it. or the will to do nearly anything. I really thought moving was going to change everything for me but... I feel nearly just as depressed. the environment change has definitely helped but, it didn’t suddenly cure my depression like I hoped for..
I just feel so alone, in like, literally everything I try to do. I feel like I don’t fit in anywhere. when I do think I fit in, it just turns out to be a delayed rejection. I swear I get screwed over and stabbed in the back more often than anyone I’ve ever met in my life. I’m easily forgotten and definitely easy to fuck over. I just wish people werent so hateful and selfish... all I want is to have female friends I can actually hang out with, have some help with my puppy, to talk to my fiance without him thinking I’m having an argument, to workout so I can dance, and to do something I love that makes me happy that I can make money with. I feel like I failed as a model too. I make all these plans and then.. I can never accomplish them. I often think, is it worth it really? to compete with all these girls when I dont care about competition? to be screwed over because I’m an opponent to everyone I wish I was friends with? to try and build working-relationships with photographers who seem to forget about me before I even get my pictures back? to not be paid for modeling when I spent tons of money on clothes for shoots? to not have my name out there after a year and a half? to not even be able to find a photographer that wants to shoot for publication? or be told I’m not inked enough to shoot again (the day after I got tattooed?)? I just feel like a failure. I spent over a thousand dollars on clothes for shoots, plus all traveling expenses, to have only ever profited $50 one time and then never get my edited photos back. I just feel like I’m not worth anything, that I can’t contribute or make money without making myself excessively unhappy working jobs I hate- only to be belittled there too.
I don’t even care about social media anymore. I don’t care to check instagram or post on it. why? so I can spend two hours doing makeup so I could post a selfie to write another caption telling everyone that “one day” I’ll do more? what’s the point? If only I had someone I could invite over to talk to about it :( I just feel so...unexcited by everything. like Stan in the episode about shit. I’m bored, I feel gross, I feel lonely, I’m overwhelmingly stressed, I’m growing to hate myself again, and I feel like I don’t have the positive influence I need to get better. I WANT to get better, I just need help and I don’t have anyone I feel I could reach out to that could actually help me. I just really need a friend...

Husband Articulates He Cant Afford Her as a Stay-at-Home MomWhen He Testifies Her Why, I Was FLOORED
“Now, I dont at all mean to offend anyone with this upright. I merely have to say that for me personally, I cant afford it.”
Author : Steven Nelms
Ive had this thought in my head for a while now. Ive been thinking that I cant afford for my spouse to be a Stay-At-Home Mom. Now, I dont at all “ve been meaning to” offend anyone with this upright. I just has to be acknowledged that for me personally, I cant afford it. Id like to explain exactly what I entail by that so that no one considerations Im in any way denigrating Stay-At-Home Moms. On the contrary, I mean that I quite literally cannot afford my partner to be staying at home. Heres why…
My wife remains home and takes care of our son every single day. She changes his nappies, feeds him, participates with him, employs him down for his nap, and comforts him when hes upset. And thats simply the bare minimum.
A child can frequently get that notice at a day-care. But on top of that, he is her alone focus. Theres no other children to tend to. He gets all of her. All of her adoration, all of her time, all of her power. She is always there, always near, and ever listening. Apparently, this is part of being a mother. You take care of your child and you develop young children. But lets face it. In our date and age, every service( and I make EVERY service) is hirable. There is a company ready and willing to do just about anything.
So while, yes, my wife is my sons mother and it is a natural cause of has become a mother to love and care for your own child, there is also a exceedingly quantifiable dollar amount that can be attributed to the services interpreted. I am in no way trying to simplify, objectify, or denigrate the priceless cherish of a father for their own children. But makes be real. Pay day find good for a conclude. Because youre seeing your hard work realized in a tangible direction that lets you plow yo soul. And this is exactly why I cant afford my bride being a Stay-At-Home Mom. The national median weekly payment for a full-time nanny is $705. Thats $ 36,660 a year.
We make ends meet comfortably and are by no means rubbing the bottom of the barrel. But according to the 2014 tariff brackets, we fall nicely in the second tier, right in the $12,951 – $49,400 levy array. Even if we were constituting the maximum amount allowed for our levy bracket, the services offered rendered of caring for our child every single era of its first year would suck the majority of members of our income. Flat out , no question, tournament over, I cannot afford my bride to be a Stay-At-Home Mom . And thats simply the beginning of it.
A regular cleaning service costs anywhere between $50 – $100 per visit, depending on how big-hearted your space is, how late of a cleaning you miss, and especially whether or not “youve had” domesticateds that molted like crazy. FYI, Im persuasion our hound is short haired because he molts every inch of it every minute of every day. It never even has a chance to grow. We also have a toddler, so those of you who the hell is unfamiliar, that represents a tissue box left unattended for nearly 18 seconds is totally vacated with its contents strewn across the suite. Same with erases. Toys rapidly find their way from his bedroom to the front room. Remotes disappear missing. The dogs water bowl sometimes get spilled. Books will rarely operate off their shelves. So on and so forth.
Picking up the accommodation is part in allotment with maintaining the place presentable. Not to mention the natural progression of soiled bowls, dusting, vacuum-clean, etc ., etc. So acquiring you crave the place to bide comparatively clean, especially whenever you have parties over, youre looking at $100 per week at the bare minimum to abide presentable. That includes up to a whopping $5,200( again, omitting the extra deep clean, or speedy pick up for hosting busines ).
Does your partner ever range errands for you? Buy the groceries? Get you a brand-new battalion of white undershirts? Personal buyers on average run around $65 an hour.( Thats eliminating the couple thousand dollar body fee required to utilize their services .) Average the amount of time spent at the grocery stores or department store per week at 4 hours and youre looking at around $260, and thats an extremely conservative average. Thats $ 13,520 a year.
Does your spouse ever cook dinner? Prepare lunch? Prepare lunch ahead for “youve got to” take with you to work? A personal cook, educating 2 dishes of five meals can run from $400 and up. So presupposing your Stay-At-Home wife educates even a few dinners a week, youre looking at around $240 at the least per week. Thats $12,480 a year. And thats eliminating any hosting, any additional mouths to feed, or extra dinners to cook or extra surfaces and entrees for bowl lucks and vacation parties.
So far were looking at a splendid total of $67,860! Remember, were working with terribly conservative medians here. Thats daily care for your child that the average full-time nanny would add. Thats twice-a-week cleansing of your residence by a damsel services that are gets the place presentable. Thats three banquets devised a week of simply two helps. These quantities, for the most percentage, still descend embarrassingly short of all the things that is really attained each and every week. And thats simply taking into account 3 business!
If your partner takes care of your budgeting, finances, and paying of bills, then add on $15 an hour for the average proportion of a fiscal aide. If youre in the corporate nature and your wife romps any kind of capacity in professional interactions at business dinners, then add on $75 an hour for the average rate of a PR assistant. And if you dont think your spouse manner or social interactions alter your image and force in the workplace, then youre simply flat out an ignoramus. If your partner does the majority of the laundry, then youll need to add at the least a fee of $25 a week for the bare minimum washer/ dryer personal service.
Lets median five hours a week on financial services, 4 hours per business dinner( about 3 a year ), and a weekly laundry busines. Lend that onto our very conservative estimates for childcare, mansion cleanse, and patronize, and thats an annual salary of $73,960. Looking objectively at an almost insultingly conservative median of the services made, I cannot afford my bride .
And gives recollect, theres no sick leave with childcare, theres no paid time off, theres no 401( k ). All of the incentives that someone who realizes over 70 K a year would normally experience are not part of this slew. All of construction workers acknowledgments, virtue bonuses, and recognition that comes with being a part of country offices are out too.
My wife sometimes feels condescended when I request her permission to buy something for myself. She feels like its my money and my call on the paycheck so I shouldnt have to ask granted permission to get myself something every once in a while. The actuality is, Im ashamed of any time Ive ever reached her feel guilty or humored when shes acquired something for herself. Im ashamed that she has ever felt like she doesnt have just as much right to our income as I do. The point of the matter is that our income doesnt even come close to covering what she does for our family. I would have to make over 100 K to even begin to be able to cover my living expenses as well as utilize my wife as a Stay-At-Home Mom!
In short, I cant render for my bride to stay at home. And Ive tragically failed to show my bride the appreciation that she deserves. She loves me, desires our son, and adoration our household, so obviously she isnt doing any of those thoughts for a paycheck or even for acknowledgment. But it certainly doesnt hurt were told that as a Stay-At-Home Mom her appraised salary is roughly double my actual income. So in a very weird method, this is my path of saying how much I appreciate my bride as the mother of my child and the person who is always has my back no matter what. You are more treasured than rubies. And I cant afford you .
