The standard 8:30-5:00 work schedule, Monday-Friday. Every. God. Damn. Week. I don't even have 40 hours of work. More like 20. This actually falls under the thread "Soul-Crushing Societal Standards" but we haven't made that one yet I def need to figure out a way to NOT do this. The problem is the stuff i love to do is either athletics or music and you will not get paid for either
i recently started hanging up on meetings and/or joining ten minutes late to see if there is really a topic being discussed or if there is a point to the meeting and there NEVER is, no matter who schedules the meeting. I guess today there was a TWO HOUR meeting with our entire division (1,000ish people or so I guess) or something and I didn’t attend and assume I missed nothing. And even with doing this, work sucks and takes too fucking long. I’m also at 4 years at my job which is six months longer than I’ve ever held any other job before quitting and idk how people work at a company / with the same people for 5-10-15-20-25+ years. I’m so sick of these people and this bullshit lmao
I wish there was more focus on completing tasks than getting in 8 hours. I work fast and I can get done in like six hours what takes my coworkers eight sometimes. If I have a list of tasks for the day and complete them it should be completing the list or my eight hours, whichever happens first. I always have a ton of work to do so boredom isn't a problem, but it seems like focusing on productivity would be more motivating for people to work hard than just trying to kill 8 hours
Wayfair forcing me to create an account to save items and purchase things. If I recall it never use to do that
I was put on to “cheugy” a few weeks back, that’s a pretty bad one too. It’s an ugly word and every definition I’ve heard of it is something I feel like we already have another term for anyway
What's super annoying for me is for weeks I had millennials on TikTok whining that they're considered cheugy now for wearing skinny jeans and how they will throw them out over their dead body. Like chill they're teenagers u don't need to listen to them or get their approval lol
How it appears that every curtain at the store is a “blackout curtain”. If I recall it use to be hard to find “blackout” curtains. I’m not trying to look for one this time around
Every pair of pants I’ve ever owned have been slightly too lose or slightly too tight. I will often lose focus mid thought because the feeling of constriction or the fabric kinda hovering and sliding against my skin drives me super uncomfortable for a split second
When that lever thing connected to the toilet handle pulley becomes disconnected and you have to like open up the top of the toilet and stick your hand in there to fix it edit: googled because I had no idea what the thing is called and apparently it’s called a ballcock?? Lmao who knew toilets were so kinky. Guy that invented the toilet was all horned up that day
i only know what it’s called because of Home Improvement. They have a great scene where an intimidating woman is showing simple household fixes and she grabs it and twists it and Tim says something like “ouch! My apologies to your husband!” lol
