The saga continues:
So as you may have read it was brought to my attention that during the two years of employment at my current company I have yet to be paid over time. So I email a few people and they assure my no worries, it'll all be taken care of. So I'm amiable about the situation, people make mistakes. Granted this is a huge mistake that someone made I'm willing to look at it like "oh well, i'll get a huge paycheck, sweet". So I wait and this is where you read my last journal with the link above. I got 11.6 hours. Well I calculated at least 16.6, not including the past year and a half. So at a MINIMUM I'm supposed to get an additional 5 hours in this weeks paycheck. So when paychecks arrive today I tear mine open to realize that #1- I did not get paid for the 5 hours, not to mention the ton of hours from the past 1.5 years and #2- They just added to 5 hours on to my time worked, like it was on last weeks paycheck. WTF??
I'm fuming. At this point my view is someone majorly f'd up by setting me up wrong in the system. I was ok and willing to let it slide as long as I was compensated and compensated in a timely manner. None of that is happening. Now I'm getting HR involved to get to the bottom of this.

I suppose if you posted certain misleading thing it would be fun.
It has been 6 months since I broke up with my ex and every once in a while I will get a call about a post I made on my other journal. I don't always give and tell all the details of my life to everyone. So if I didn't tell her something and she reads it online she usually freaks on me.

amen. That spoiled my vacation last year. Especially when said ex held said hookup against me. "but we were on a break!" One wise thing he did say, though, was "We are animals. We don't deserve your tears." Hopefully the ones that are worth tears, are the ones that don't make us cry.

Celebrity look a likeCategory: celebrity
We all know of my celebrity interest (that's code for im a little bit too interested in any thing trashy and celebrity). In any case when I discovered My heritage face recognition I was sold. What it does is scan your face and then tells you what male and female celebrity you resemble. Now let's face it (no pun intended), this program is 100% useless. Have you ever been like "Gosh I wish my computer would let me know what celebrity I look like because I can't figure it out myself". No. And if you answered yes to that email me because we may be soul mates. In any case I apparently resemble both:
Jessy McCartney/Who I resemble if I was a boy with highlights and looking to be in a boy band
Jessy McCartney/Who I resemble if I was a boy and 14 yrs old and trying to be sexy
Selma Blair/Who I resemble if I was hot and had black hair
Selma Blair with bff Sarah Michelle Gellar/Who I'd resemble if I had a friend who looked like Sarah Michelle Gellar. But I can't stand the 3 name celebrity thing so in reality Id never be friends with Sarah Michelle Gellar.

I have no will powerCategory: non-exsistant
My office make out partner was in the office yesterday. I had decided that our shenanigans were going to end. However that plan didn't seem to work out quite like I envisioned it. It went something like this:
office boy: so im still slutty and i don't want you to think im a jerk because im not.
moi: blah you're only 10% jerk and 90% irresistible.
office boy: ok so lets meet in the supply room and cop a feel. Ok?
moi: awesome, i'll meet you in there.
us in supply room groping at each other like a bad spanish soap opera.
ugh. but secretly i love it, i can't help it.

Putin kissed boy 'like a kitten'
MOSCOW, Russia (Reuters) -- Vladimir Putin's decision to stop a small boy as he walked through the Kremlin and kiss his stomach was prompted by a desire to "touch him like a kitten," the Russian president said on Thursday.
The five-year-old boy, identified as Nikita Konkin by the press, was clearly stunned by the kiss and speculation over Putin's motivation has run wild in the week since it happened.
Curious Internet users propelled the issue to the top of a list of questions put to Putin in an interactive Web cast.
"People came up and I began talking to them, among them this little boy. He seemed to me very independent, sure of himself and at the same time defenseless so to speak, an innocent boy and a very nice little boy," Putin told the Web cast.
"I tell you honestly, I just wanted to touch him like a kitten and that desire of mine ended in that act."
The Izvestia daily, which tracked down Nikita, discovered that he had refused to wash after that kiss.
"I just liked him and he liked me very much. I want to be president myself," the five-year-old told the paper.
Putin was shown by state television chatting to graduates of military academies before he took a walk through one of the Kremlin's courtyards, often full of tourists.
He stopped and spoke to Nikita who turned away shyly. "What is your name?" Putin asked, kneeling down in front of the fair-haired boy and holding him by the waist.
"Nikita," the clearly shocked boy answered, looking from side to side.
Putin then lifted the boy's shirt and kissed him on his stomach. The Russian president then patted the boy on the head and walked off through a crowd of astonished tourists.
I don't know about you but this smells weirdly of child molester to me. I'm getting the shivers just thinking about it.

Maybe Putin wanted to go lower, and just kissed the stomach first to see if he was down with it?

wow, imk2, that's an amazing rant, nicely done!! very passionate
i'm having the same fucking problem everywhere i turn. why can't people just do their fucking job, CORRECTLY! the fucking incompetence is beyond ridiculous. it seems like everyone is operating at a 75 IQ level, and maybe THAT wouldn't be so bad, if they weren't so fucking lazy on top it. AND THEN, they have the audacity to get a goddamned attitude! FUCK YOU! i swear i wish i could fucking taser everyone who i've come across that has fucked up my shit in the past few months, maybe they'd be less inclined to do so next time. ZAPP these motherfuckers once or twice and they'd learn their lesson real quick.
