When the light at the end of the tunnel burns out
I get off work last night and find out that my girlfriend spoke with her social worker. This would normally not be a bad thing.
Social worker tells her that being in a rough patch, relationship related is not good for her. Her conclusion was for us to breakup. I think this is a bad idea.
Point is folks, life was going so well there and now its crapped out on me. I love the woman more then anything and hate to lose her over something like this.
Life is not all rainbows and sunshine.

Letter from the Gulag #1
The days have become long and soul numbing. The only thing keeping me alive is the pure disgust for the people I am forced to assist on a daily basis.
It never stops, they get stupider and more ignorant every day. It shouldn't be possible but it is. Yesterday someone called me a "Spic" because I couldn't help them. They cannot see me, so they assumed.
Ignorant bastard.
If I do not soon escape I will surely lose what is left of my mind. The pressure is building to the point of a complete and utter meltdown....
Greatest Regards,
incoherent Madman

New Service Rating - Absolute Zero.
WOW. I do not even know where to start with this. Service in this country has never been worse.
The three big hitters on my list right now are Blockbuster, Subway and Tim Hortons.
BLOCKBUSTER
The movies are either never there or they don't work. When they do not work you have to go back to the store and exchange. Not a big deal really, except they simply change for another random DVD for that movie. There is no checking the device for errors, there is no cleaning of it to make sure it works.
SUBWAY
The service is simply terrible. You cannot run a restaurant like that with only one person on staff. I had lunch today and waited in line for 20min. There were only 2 people in front of me. So I wasted 20min waiting out of my 30min break. I do not even know how my meal was because I didn't have time to taste it.
TIM HORTONS
Where I live we have a total of 6 Tim Hortons for a population of 22 000. This should be more then enough to have it moving efficiently. But as we are all aware it doesn't move at all. You will stand in line forever waiting; not on people in front of you but the actual staff to stop cleaning and serve you.
If your job is to clean up the area that's fine, but if a customer walks in and is waiting for service, you drop what you are doing and help them.
Service has clearly hit absolute zero. The companies named above are simply an example. It could be bad staff, bad management or perhaps companies just don't care anymore.

Square Peg, Round Hole.
I was working today and the level of ignorance/stupidity hit an all time high. These people just don't get it, you repeat and rephrase and still nothing.
We are not talking about technical issues, simply this not that issues.
This is my username "blah1".
No its actually this blah, try to login.
Didn't work.
What did you enter?
"blah1"
No its "blah"
I know my username... etc.
All day its like this. Square peg, round hole syndrome folk its getting out of control. Stop and think, it won't kill you. In fact you may be saving someone else's sanity.
