Okay ya'll. So if you're a friend of mine on Facebook you'd have heard all about my Sunday Hatred blog.
I hope you all have your mood-boots on, cause I'm about to press your buttons
We all know that one person (or if you're truly unfortunate, more than one) that tries to be something they're not- and utterly fails every time. Okay this isn't quite the rant, but I'm getting to it...
Status's bug the hell outta me when they're followed up a little later with a fail. Don't get me wrong, not everything can go right all the time, and I feel bad for people when shit doesn't go right. HOWEVER 6 times a day everyday clogs up my news feed, and reminds me I'm 'friends' with you! (You know who you are...)
I sound like a total bitch, I know I know. I have good reason to be vexed. And I'm slowly getting to it.
This one person in particular, I have been loosely involved with helping them to organise an event. They clearly haven't done this before, so maybe I should go easy on them?... Nawh. After a few minor mistakes that I ignored and put down to lack of experience the shit began.
Photo shoots for the events promo packs were arranged and cancelled time, after time, after time- until it was clear it just wasn't going to happen at all. Then I decided to step in, and try and save this from falling through all together. I pitched an idea, which wouldn't take a lot of time, effort, people and NO money, would be perfect for promoting this persons event and could even be used to make some money at the event! 'GREAT IDEA!' this person says 15 mintues after they've cancelled the 3rd photoshoot and then continued to whine that they couldn't rely on others. I'm thinking 'Oh good, hopefully we'll get something done...' but no, 'Lets wait 3 days so I can get someone we don't need to do what I could do in less than 3 seconds!'
Anyway... so eventually 3 days passes. Nothing happens. Person decided to take pictures from the participants photo albums to use on flyers, without necessarily asking permission (Which is the 2nd time, only 1st time wasn't printed). I was the only person to say anything... but I think that was cause all my pictures a CR to photographers, and the other participants didn't really mind. So after I'd calmed down, got on with the day. I come back online to find that this person has sent an email to all those in their friends list, my friends list and the friends lists of the other participants. DO NOT SPAM MY FRIENDS! Oh god... the event isn't exactly a clean one either, Geez, What if my rents were in my friends list? This person may have be lacking a few teeth by now. I actually think I'm too nice. Need to grow some nutts or something.
Promotion has been left up until last minute. I don't think many people if any people are going to turn up to this. So it'll be a day wasted, and an important day at that. I'm still going to attend the event, more out of pity than anything else.
So what I'm ranting about is people who fuck with your life, because they don't stop to think what their actions might do to someone else. I've had 3 days screwed up with last minute changes of plan. And when you have an 8 month old baby time is precious. I've had people bitch at me because they're being spammed, and I've had my patience tested and pushed to and beyond its limits.
As much as I want to help this person not suck donkey urine through a straw, they make me so angry. So I believe our 'friendship' may be coming to an end, or at least limited...
What do you guys think about people screwing with your life? Any experiences you wanna share?
