Vent

Not only do I have 8 major projects (read IMPORTANT) I'm working on, but then I have to do all the little stuff too. Document users and their issues. Install all new hardware. Maintain and track orders. Find/update/replace firmware and drivers.

Ugh.

Being the only IT person (my boss does NOT count because she has WAAAAYYY to much shit on her plate, accounting, programming (not the same as what I do), branch reports, and managing stuff) at a company with 60+ users is a bitch. Everything is held up with bandaids and no issue can be fully resolved unless I do it. For example, our ticketing system (SUUUUPER IMPORTANT) is not being backed up! What the fuck were they thinking? And if shit were to hit the fan (like it almost did Friday) then I'd be the one getting in trouble. And now I'm the one in charge of figuring out how we are going to back it up...like I need more shit to do...

And then I get yelled at for not being able to "keep up" with everything.

What the fuck. How can I make people understand, I'm not sitting on Facebook all day, hell I'm hardly taking 30 min lunch breaks (I'm hourly and have an hour "off" for lunch). 

And the biggest thing is, I would LOVE more money, but what I really, truly seek, from my boss and the CFO and President is respect. Because they already trust me (or they don't realize how much power they have given me).

It's like, your world runs on computers, why won't you respect the people that are keeping them from fucking up?

Politics and Religion and Worldviews

People need to stop being stupid. Stop getting offended at every little thing. So what if someone says something you take offence to. Just get over it. Unless they are personally attacking you, get over it.
"it's offencive to my religion"
"it's offencve to my people"
"it instills hate"
Whatever the fraking case, get over it. Because without the freedom of speech, what are we? Who are we? Then who controls us? Those in power? Those who put themselves in power?
So don't EVER let anyone silence your freedom of speech! Seriously.

And those of you that are getting but hurt, speak out! That's fine. Just don't go trying to pass laws that condemn people for their freedom of speech. Because no matter how much bad a person or people can do by speaking evil, it is NOT right to take away freedom of speech.

The changes that a year brings

its surprising how many things

change

in a short amount of time

just a year

not more

not less

and bam

here i go again

another person

another time

another place

how odd

that life does this

changes like this

not only have i

broken hearts

broken my heart

gotten over it

had a crush

a rebound

and now

another girl

that I can seriously see myself with

not just the short term

but possibly the long one

too

im not saying it will

work out

or be perfect

because it might not

theres always that change

that it wont

but you cant bet on that

cant be always looking towards the 

end

or a specific

point

nope

gotta live in the moment

enjoy what you have

take nothing for granted

because when you do

thats when the issues

start to arise

like the sun does

everyday

without fault

Real

Cheesy shit written for my boy Kyle! Congratulations, I know this is a bit late, but I didn't wanna ruin the surprise.

It's that time

for you to ask

inquire of her

an answer to

a question.

It's not a question of knowledge

nor is it a question of strength

No

It's a question of love

commitment

trust

These qualities that you seek

in the woman you love

so you ask her

will you marry me?

will you make my love tangible

real, something to be known

something to be talked about

by others, wondering if

love is real

or fake

or a delusional state

or frame of mind.

Prove to them

those seekers and doubters

that your love

is real.
