Freeloaders

I am a usually a really helpful guy and im hardly ever mean to anybody but when somebody starts freeloading off of me when they have their own place to stay and they have their meals paid for but they still come to my house and eat my food a sleep over every night i start to get really aggravated. Being the nice guy that i am, i dont know how to tell this individual to stop. Dont get me wrong, we are friends but she's kinda wearing out her welcome. Sometimes i would like to just come home and relax with just me and my roommate with no company....but that can't happen with this paticular individual around. Shes loud, comes in when im trying to sleep and just turns on the tv...I have a studio apartment so its not like i can go somewhere else in the house its all one big room. I don't wanna be a total a** hole to her but if thats what i takes for her to go back to her dorm and to stop freeloading off of me then thats what has to be done. Please if you have any helpful advice drop me a comment! *peace* -Cody-

I WAS FIRED

SO friday on my way to school my boss called me and asked me when i got the time to come in. So between my first and second class i have about two hours so i decided to go ahead and go talk to her. She pulled me into the administrators office and her and the administrator pretty much told me that i suck at my job and that "I have an ADHD personality" I was like W/E signed my termination paper and bounced right out of that place...i was a little upset just because of the way they kind of belittled me but i was tired of that job anyways. Being that this was my first time ever being fired it was a very interesting experience. Hopefully i can get another job quick because i need it! So this was my first experience gettin the boot......OH God what a week its been.

Why Me

I understand that there is a certain way to do things at a job but im the type of person that thinks if you can do the same job in a different way and still come out with the same result then who cares how you do it. Well at work they thought i would be a good idea to put cody in the kitchen...hmmm lets think about this one for a second. Cody is a nursing student not a culinary arts student but he is still expected to cook a meal for 32 very gripey old people who don't appreciate anything. You could bring in Wolfgang Puck to cook for them and they still would have something negitive to say about it. Anyways back to what i was saying, if i wanted to cook instead of becoming more experienced in my trade i would have went to McDonalds or Pizza Hut but no these people seem to think that it would be funny to stick me in the kitchen. The worse part about it is they don't give you enough time for the tasks assinged that day. So when i stay to coplete the job right i get this little note on my time card "NO OVERTIME WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL." Well then when i clock out and leave on time and not everything is done then i get pulled into the D.O.N.'s office and get told "Your not completing your job you need to be getting everything done before you leave" Come on cant they just make up their minds jeez louise so this makes me ask the question "Why do I always get stuck in all these unfortunate situations whenever alls i try to do is help?" And that was my bump in the road for today

Teachers and Attitudes

So I understand that a teachers job is to help you suceed in school so you will have an awesome career once graduation comes around. But there comes a point when a teacher needs to learn to draw the line between being concerned and being down right nosey and rude. College being different than high school, there is no truancy officer to make you come to school. It is a personal decision and also now that we're all adults, school isn't the only thing in our life now. Having to juggle a job, health problems, and transportation issues adds alot of stress to prioritizing my days. Day to day prorities change. I had a teacher tell me that there is absolutley no excuse to miss class.....um well news flash lady......when i have a seizure i kinda cant get up and come to school. Also its kinda hard to get here when you dont have a car and you live like 30 minutes away. I feel its okay for a teacher to tell a student that they are concerned and what the student could do to improve their grade but, its not okay to sit there in front of the class and make a student feel 2 inches tall. Some teachers just need to realize that everybodys life isn't as smooth as theirs probley is and that life happens and sometimes its none of the teachers business about whats going on. Thats what i think about teachers with attitudes.
