She really thought that she would get varsity. There were only three 8th graders, including her, that didn't make varsity. There were quite a few 7th graders that did make varsity. That is where the embarrassment comes in I suppose.

I had to read about my husband's grandmother passing away on Facebook, in a post a cousin made only a couple hours after it hAppened, and before all the extended family had been informed. (My husband was on a plane.) On the Facebook post, to the cousin, I wrote "I wish you had waited before posting this." So she Unfriended me. How nice of her. I had that happen too. My uncle (in law) posted about my uncle dying before my mother (sister) was notified. I had to hurry and get people in place before telling her. I knew he didn't do it maliciously and at least my mother learnt it from me and not on the internet/Facebook. I get it that people want to tell their extended network, but let family have a chance to be notified.

I am so sorry for those of you who have real vents. Mine is just petty, I have a stupid spider living in my new car. Rotten *&^(_*( has been spinning webs all over my car. If he shows his face, he's dead.

I have no idea...it's a rather large family...with 6 siblings and more cousins than I even know, so I seriously doubt it. No one should have to find out someone they love has passed by reading it on Facebook.

My vent....women whose husbands don't let them go out. Ugh. My one friend can go out periodically for a walk with me. That's about it. I asked if she wanted to attend a Homecoming event with me at our old university. It's an hour away. There is a shuttle bus from our town, she doesn' have to drive. The bus takes us home at 10pm. She jokingly said that she had to ask "permission" from her dh and followed that with a LOL. I know it's pretty much the truth. After that....no response. She has mentioned to me how badly she wanted to see a Nascar race. She wanted to travel with a friend to a race 3 hours away. Her dh said no. He's a nice, decent man but WTH? She has a dd away at university and a teenage ds who is a great, independant kid. Friend works full-time, not like they are poor.
A second friend has the same kind of "problem". She can't go anywhere without her dh. Last year, a group of us got together for our 30 yr university get together. She could go but couldn't stay. Her dh drove her 2 hours to the event, didn't attend the event and then made her leave early to drive back. Not sure what he did for those few hours while we were at the get-together. The rest of us stayed in a hotel. She did tell me that he would pick me up at home and drive me back. Umm, no. I wanted to stay and not worry about when "he" wanted to leave.
Same friend has always wanted to go to Paris. Her dh doesn't want to go. I told her that we could go together. She's not allowed. WTH? She has one dd in university and one who is a teenager. Great kids, no problems. Friend works full time and has a great job so it's not like they can't afford it.
Why do women allow this to happen? They can't attend events or have fun unless their dh gives them permission.

My vent---My team's hearing clerk and paralegal. STOP COMPLAINING AND DO YOUR JOB. You don't get a cookie and a parade every time you do your job right-that's why the government deposits money in your account every two weeks. NO, I don't want to be your supervisor-trust me. I have my own duties--and if you don't like it, then shove it. I'm tired of hearing the constant undercurrent of complaints that start with "all attorneys," "attorneys never," "no attorney," "why do you attorneys," blah blah blah. I'm tired of hearing how I'm "mean" because I recommend unfavorable rulings. I'm tired of hearing how the Judge is "arbitrary," because not ALL judges apply the regulations. How dare you agree with someone over the phone that the judge is arbitrary? How do you even think that's ever appropriate? I'm tired of hearing how, "I can do your job without going to law school." Really? I couldn't tell from the garbled set of words you call a sentence. Whatevs. I've tried to be extra super nice with a sprinkle on top (oh, and let's not forget glitter), but this week I just realized that you actually LOVE to complain. I'm done.
