I love the lack of respect and consideration people can have sometimes. I went to my doctors office where they have vallet, which I hate. I hate vallet service. I don't like the idea of giving my car to a complete stranger. Anyhow, my appointment is at 8. Lucky me the mandatory bullshit vallet service isn't open until 8.
Hrmmm, that's a scheduling conflict as far as I am concerned. So I walked up to the vallet guy and told him. Hi, I know it is a little early, but I have an appointment at 8, can I give you my keys now because I need to go to my appointment. To which he replied in broken english, "Please wait two minute, we open Eight." I then told him in broken Spanish the same thing again, to which he replied the same shit in English.
Fucking asshole.
Is it my fault that this shit is scheduled at exactly the same time, I just wanted to drop my keys off with this stranger vallet asshole so I wouldn't be late for my goddamn appointment. Instead I have fucking Pablo telling me I have to wait two minutes which is confusing because in two minutes it wasn't going to be 8 anyhow it was going to be 7:52. Therefore instead of giving me shit, he could have just taken my fucking keys and let me go on my merry way.
The worst part of all this is, I was afraid that I was going to be late and make my doctor wait for me. WRONG - no one was there yet. I stood in the hall for 10 - 15 minutes until the doctor happened to show up by chance. So that made me feel like an asshole for giving the guy downstairs shit. I actually wasn't rude to him, it was just impossible to properly communicate with his banana boat ass because he hardly spoke English.
My tolerance for non-English speaking people has gone down exponentially. Tired of living in a 3rd world state with so many goddamn uneducated hispanics. I don't mind educated of any race or ethnicity, but the uneducated sections with the low paying jobs can blow me.

Silly Dreams
Well I am playing the lotto, haven't won yet and if I do I will definitely talk about it. Let me review why I am doing this. The lottery is a good $104 per year investment because it has the same shit odds of doing well as the stock market or your 401K.
Therefore, for 104 dollars a year I will definitely play the lottery untill I win or die, which ever comes first. If you are wondering why 104, it is because they draw twice a week, there are 52 weeks in a year so that is 104 draws in a full year.
Just imagine winning the lottery. Oh man all of my life issues would be solved forever. I would be set indefinitely. My favorite part would be that I could still go to work, but not give two shits if anything happened to my job. I would totally go back to my old job and rock the boat if I could. Possibly buy out a good chunk of their company stock so I could have influence.
My debts would be paid off and I could actually have a retirement plan. The stress of every day life wouldn't matter anymore. I would have a maid and possibly a personal chef or even a butler. Exciting.

Annoyance
So I had a really horrendous 3 day weekend. My AC died on Friday night, the start of my 3 day weekend... I had a lot of things planned, but at 85 degrees in my house, it was hard to get anything that required any sort of concentration done. Needless to say, I am quite pissed off. Luckily the AC guy came out on Monday, he found the problem, but couldn't fix it because his replacement part was bad too.
Then he was supposed to come over Tuesday night and he flaked out. Didn't bother to even call me, I called him. "Oh, sorry too much work today, maybe tomorrow..." He asked what time was good for me, I said 8AM, he said that is too early. Okay then how about 7PM? Okay...
Well he didn't show up again on Wednesday and didn't bother to call either, we called him and he said he would be too busy working somewhere else. Okay what ever asshole. We called the landlord and he said to try another service, we did so and got someone over within the hour. These guys were awesome, they had to rewire fucking everything because pretty much all of the components were burned out, but whatever it got the AC going again. This piece of crap AC has not been maintained, covered in dirt, dust, black mold and hair, it is dying slowly. The only reason it seems to have burned out to begin with is because of a Freon leak. Fucking awesome. The only reason there is a Freon leak is because the AC is in horrible condition. The coils are falling apart around the condenser and the coils on the air handler are rusting and covered in muck so they are clogged. Poor airflow + lack of Freon = overworked compressor, yields, burned out system.
So I typed up a nice long laundry list of problems for the landlord to look at and he hasn't responded yet. Either way we deducted over $500 dollars from rent for the repairs. This was a fuck you job because the original asshole didn't bother coming out to look at it, then I find out later he blamed me for the condition of the AC as the reason he didn't want to work on it. Plus the additional fuck you was that we called a service after hours, this bumps up the rate. Too fucking bad, if I owned property I would make damn sure it was maintained. I feel no remorse for this.

Genetic Deterioration
I complained about the likely hood that I will contract cancer and well I still think that is a total possibility, but instead I have received a different genetic gift.
I went to a cardiologist to be cleared for a clonoscopy which is now not even a priority. I wore a heart monitor for 10 days. The readings showed that my heart rate dips down to the low 30s at times about 34 bpm and my personal favorite, my heart stops in my sleep.
My heart apparently stopped in my sleep for about 2 seconds. I don't breath well as is, I believe that I have sleep apbnea. I have woken up gasping for air as if someone was choking me to death three times in my life. So the doctor isn't pleased about this and nor am I. Before this doing a stress test was optional and a sleep study was optional. Now they are both mandatory.
I have a faulty ticker. Yay. And a heart murmur to boot. However the heart murmur is harmless I am told.
Ahhh, now the good part. So Aetna denied my claim for a sleep study because, I am paraphrasing, you need to be near death in order to qualify. Look at this link for details. You must have a congenitive heart defect such has CHF or congenitive heart failure. CHF is very bad, it is when your heart doesn't pump fast enough and your lungs fill with blood drowning you in your own fluids.
So once again, FUCK YOU AETNA. Thanks for being human about this. I might die in my sleep, but you mother fuckers will sleep well knowing that you saved money not paying for my treatment. It isn't like I don't pay my health insurance each month.
So now they want me to wear some other kind of fucking monitor so that we can prove that I need to go to a sleep study. Hopefully I will stay alive long enough to see the goddamn results. I don't feel 100% like my life is in danger, but you never know with heart problems. My father and uncle died of heart disease, I don't want to go out that way especially since I am healthy. I didn't bring any of this on, I don't fucking drink or smoke. I am not obese and I am not diabetic. My labs are clean! This is a genetic problem.

Time or the Lack There Of
I love my friends, I love hanging out, having great conversation over dinner and booze. It is my preferred thing to do ideally. I love hanging out and relaxing, however this is a luxury right now that I don't want.
I would much rather not do ANYTHING right now. I have several projects I am working on, trying my goddamn-ist to make money on the side. I want to finish creating some things whether it is for fun or not. I am relearning circuits right now so I can get a better understanding of electronics period.
The point is I have shit to do and my friends always want to hang out and see me. Which I fully appreciate, but at the same time I wonder why it is that they have all this free time.
The other problem is that I know so many people that it is hard to keep up with the rotations. By the time I have seen one group, it is time to see the next group. This is annoying because I don't have any personal time and I can't work on my projects. I am being round robined to death.
I am quite annoyed with some people who have got it made and want to just enjoy life, which is fine, but then they tell me I need to learn to relax. I hate hearing that right now, being told to learn to relax is really goddamn annoying and insulting because they have no idea what they are talking about. I am pretty much shitting a brick over the thought of retirement because it is a legitamate fear. Not having money to retire and there is no guaranteed social security either. Learn to relax? Go fuck yourself learn to relax.
The only people who can sit back and relax are the people who have nothing to worry about. Day in day out doing nothing but indulging because they have a trust or a large inheritance. Fuck this shit.

The Arrogant Professors
I really hated a lot of the shitty professors from my college. I had shitty professors for just about every one of my core classes which makes me sad. I am tired of arguing with people about a very black and white issue. I don't know about you all, I went to college to learn, specifically I went for engineering. I don't feel that I got what I paid for frankly. The professors I had were uncaring, un-knowledgeable assholes for the most part. There were indeed the exceptions, but they were few and far in between.
The shitty professors somehow flourished at my college, they had tenor and couldn't give a shit what happened to you. There are two professors I have in mind who I hated the most. One is an FPL drone pawn operative and the other is a piece of shit who has a lot of ties to IBM. They will remain nameless until I feel safe enough to reveal where I went to school and the assholes' names. They both suck and were more than okay with screwing you over if they wanted to.
Professors get defensive when you explain to them why you thought another professor was a bad apple. I made that mistake once, I won't bother again. All I remember is the professor I was talking to basically telling me that I am probably at fault, that I didn't try hard enough or that I was a bad student blaming the professor for my short comings...
It is easy to pass the blame and I mean that on both parts. The student and the professor. However, one thing is certain, there is something wrong when people who graduated from a particular school are black listed from a company for hire. They can't all be bad students, it is the school's fault and the shit professors who teach there. It is the program failing. My college was black listed from Motorola and I think Lockheed Martin. Not sure if the ban still exists, but to give you an idea of how bad this was, all the people hired by Motorola from my college were all fired just for being from my college. A similar incident occurred at Lockheed Martin. That is bad and very telling of the quality of education being produced from that university.
Luckily I am very good at programming, so not finding an engineering job was not a problem for me. I am sad that I couldn't work as an engineer at least once, but "it's okay" I keep telling myself "I will practice in my free time". And I have... *sigh*
My school thinks it is a good idea to screw over its students by making them use technician's manuals as college books... I am not sure if you have ever read a technician's manual, but that shit is useless unless you know the subject material already. Fuck that shit. I think it is unfair to make students use poor reading material with no practicality at all. It should be illegal and I think the students need to approve the books, not the board or the professors. They don't use the book, the students do.
The books I hate the most are the books that don't explain how to do problems in the book. This to me should be illegal because it is a waste of goddamn time to even read the shit if you won't be able to solve the practice problems in the book! I don't think answers to problems should be absconded either, every student should have the opportunity to review the answers to a problem. There shouldn't be this teacher's manual crap, students need access to answers to make sure they know what they are doing.
Lastly I don't think anyone should be tested anymore unless there is a good reason for it. I will explain more in a followup post.
