Bad morning at work. Mostly because this is my first shift on phones. I think I prefer emails.
I've had a guy hang up on me after I struggled to hear what he said (crackling noises prevented every second syllable)

[Bowsette]

Watching this TV show about debt collectors, guy paid off a £4,500 debt on his debit card. Meanwhile if I try to spend over £50 on mine, Lloyds locks my account due to automated fraud prevention.

 

Uuuuuuugh I'm trying to pay a customs fee not purchase explosives. Jesus fuck.

[Calvary]

That debt collector show literally epitomises scum. Debt collectors ought to be strung up by their necks if you ask me.

 

In terms of bitching, I'm halfway through day 2/6 of managing our firm on site by myself. Perpetual dread and anxiety is not fun.

I love the show. Sure it sucks that people have to get thrown out of their homes, but... pay your rent and this shit doesn't happen, y'know?

[Calvary]

Sure but they're smug cunts and you just know that they're rockin' at least semi every time they get to evict someone.

 

I've watched episodes where, for example, a family has been paying their rent to the landlord, who is in fact only an intermediary that pockets the money and doesn't pass it on to the housing association or whomever his boss is. Normally these sorts of people target immigrant families who have a poor grasp of English and are ignorant of the checks they should make when renting a property.

 

The result: these debt enforces come in, evict the family and literally leave them homeless. If the council offices are shut for the evening or the weekend then they can't even arrange emergency accommodation. That's a fundamental fucking failure of human rights at the most basic level if you ask me.

 

Needless to say, I'd be quite happy to see the lot of 'em made jobless.

I kissed a guy from my work on friday. I kinda liked it. I'm not sure now if this was really really stupid.

Is that the one on channel 5. I've seen it on, and it just makes me feel uncomfortable. 

 

In other news, I have assessments, work and so little time:

Like worried that's all you wanted and you don't want to lead him on? Or the idea of two coworkers dating?

As someone who met his girlfriend at work, everything turned out just fine. But it's definitely not without its risks. Lots of drama can show its pretty head. At that particular place if someone was sleeping with someone, the whole work place knew the next day. If there are breakups, everyone knows your secrets and all a sudden you're the superslut. I've witnessed some seriously fucked up bullying at work places because two coworkers dated and it turned south. And most of that was girls doing the bullying.

Just go with your gut.

Heeeyyyyyy... My friend was a debt collector.....

 

He knew our city was dirt poor so he used to offer them a chance to pay a $5 a week.

 

He used to have to knock on the doors of Gang Members & Meth dealers, so instead of being confrontational he would offer the most peaceful solution.

Blurgh.

Hair getting long. Have not shaved in two weeks. Kinda being lazy, but also might let it all go for winter. Maybe...

Once I had hair to my shoulders. I was a brunette carrot top.

I thought about going bald in support of my friend who is going through treatment but he's not the type to appreciate that kind of gesture anyways.

I've literally had every hairstyle known to man.

Cornrows

[Calvary]

The only thing worse than a white guy with cornrows is a white guy with dreads.

[(V) (`m`) (V) ︵ ┻━┻]

I feel as tho it's the opposite for me.

Only since I have cum to admire Samuel Larsen.
I'm not sure if he counts, he's very clearly mixed.

I've yet to see a fuckable lad with cornrows.

[Calvary]

Tes you're obviously forgetting mid noughties Eminem. Hnnnn. What a man. What. A. Man.

[(V) (`m`) (V) ︵ ┻━┻]

Eminem had cornrows?

I only ever remember the bleach blonde "slap my wife so hard my daughter's teeth fly out" look he had going.

Cornrows

You caught me, I lied. Would never do cornrows or dreads.

I've tried bald, buzzed, faux hawk, Mohawk, military, shaggy, bowl cut, emo (long in front) long + pwnytail and every generic male pardon or comb style. Never landed on a hair style I liked. Not kidding you my nickname as a kid was Kevin Arnold because I looked identical and and similar hair but mine was way more ridiculous.

Died my hair black, auburn, blonde, blond highlight (yeah frosty tips!) like a burgundy magenta kinda red. Whatever I do I seem to come back to hats because my hair is too thick. It's an asshole that never wants to cooperate. So fuck it. /cry

I JUST WANT TO BE BEAUTIFUL!

[(V) (`m`) (V) ︵ ┻━┻]

I just found out a good chunk of people think my hair is black.

It's brown and I constantly see highlights in it myself.

So I'm considering getting it lightened up a bit.

[fae]

I don't like my hair either.

[Calvary]

I had to shave about 75% of my head before I landed on a style I like. Unfortunately that doesn't leave much...hair.

I hate going to the barbers because of the small talk with the barber.

 

"So what is it you do?"
"I'm a student. What do you do?"
"Well, I'm a barber."
"Oh. Cool."

Just end me now. 

 

 

In other news,I'm sick. Again. 

Fucking. Colds.
