Need to vent - rant, warning, rant!

[HRH]

So I finally got the Christmas spirit yesterday at work, and I've been pretty happy with the season in general. However, I find myself growing very very short of patience for stupid assholes.

 

To explain, last night when I got home there was a Honda Accord that rolled up across the street, parked on the road in between the two neighbor houses, and just sat there. So I watched it, fed the dog, watched some more, helped Brenda, my next door on the same side neighbor move her trash onto the curb, and kept watching. Finally after it was there for 10 minutes and I knew it wasn't anyone visiting, I grabbed the pistol and the light and went over and said loudly, "Hi there, can I help you find anything?" And of course the response was no, we're okay, thanks. I see them rifling through the car, the tattooed assfuck seems to have the cap of a hypodermic needle in his teeth and his methhead girlfriend is frantically looking for something. So I continue with the light and asking questions such as, "so do you know anyone around here?" Oh no, we were just talking. Yeah, right. "Okay, well I just like to make sure nothing is going on in my neighborhood, you two have a nice night!"

 

About 30 seconds after I walked back across the road to my yard, I heard them start the car and they bugged out. Win for me!

 

So then, after I got inside and started making dinner, my roommate Buddy came home and told me how he surprised three assholes at 5 in the morning that same day. He spotlighted three guys in a Chevy in our alley, trying to steal sheetmetal or whatever from douchehead's yard across the alley. (My alley neighbor, wannabe homie, nice guy, but kind of like the song pretty fly for a white guy, and claims to be a mechanic, but doesn't know shit) So anyway, Buddy spots them and they scatter like roaches. Two run and one jumps in the Chevy and hauls off down the alley.

 

That aside, the night freight driver at NAPA tells me a day before that that his key for the back door is almost broken, and I'm like okay, I'll leave a note for our manager. Yesterday goes by, today I mention it and Neil has some keys made. So our normal freight driver is an alright guy, but the guy who does weekends (I'll leave out names here for my sake :) ) is a stupid fucking moron who thinks the key is an extension of the door handle. Go figure it's been replaced a few times. To make it more annoying, he's a black fellow and literally thinks whitey is out to get him. Every time he shows up with night freight, he's on his phone continuously, and I've heard him make several remarks about how the man is keeping him down. He basically has a gigantic chip on his shoulder and is a moron to boot. (I'm terribly sorry, but last I checked, I didn't run a cotton plantation and he's not delivering bales of cotton for a dollar a day.)

 

Anyway, dickweed fuckweasel extraordinaire also likes to do something REALLY annoying. I don't know if we have any other managers at parts stores, but if they're like NAPA, if you set the alarm and leave, the driver keys in and does his thing, and then the alarm sets after he leaves. BUT, if you come back after setting the alarm, or if the driver keys in first, while you're still there, your code will not work for 45 minutes since they leave a time window on for unloading freight.

 

This guy loves to not honk the horn and try and sneak the truck in and hit the code before you know he's there, thus making you stay 45 minutes to set the alarm again. (I've found a way around that, but it still involves calling Sonitrol.)

 

So I already don't like this guy, and I finally get out of there tonight, after he's sneaked up without honking, and I see him motion at me, and I pretend he's waving, wave back, and zip out of there in the 510. So I zip down highway 2, thinking about the other night driver showing me his key which was almost broken, and start thinking about that.

 

I decide to double back and see if the rollup door is open after I'm a mile away. So I creep by (hard to do in the 510) and see the truck door is closed and the rollup is closed. Fuck me running. It's now more than an hour after we closed, I have to open tomorrow. Not good. So I roll into the parking lot and he comes running up to me, damn, I'm so glad you're here, the key broke off in the lock. So I'm pissed and chirp the tires next to his feet and go park and the whole time he's like, "Damn, I haven't seen a 510 in like 10 years, man back in the 80s they were the thing to have. People would kill for a 510." And I thought about saying, yeah, well if you try to steal mine I'll fucking shoot you dead, but thought that wouldn't help.

 

So I get him a new key, and I'm thinking about this situation. If he was hailing me before he had even gotten out of the cab, he probably wanted to know if I had a new key. When I came back, the key was broken off in the lock. So that tells me he got butthurt that I took off, and decided he'd go over and break off the key and then cry about it, say no one was available to open the door, and then go off to his next stop.

 

WHAT A FUCKING ASSHOLE! And if he didn't do it on purpose, he's still a STUPID NON-MECHANICALLY INCLINED ASSHOLE!

 

I was still hot when I got home way the fuck later than I should have been and I go to pull into the yard and see a car speeding down my street. Again. So I walk right out in the way and hold my hand out and he slows down and the passenger asks if I need help, and I say, no, you were just moving a little fast, there are a lot of kids around here. So they take off, starting to go fast, so I goose it in reverse, and do a little burnout, and I see brake lights instantaneously since they weren't too far away and the 510 still has the glasspack.

 

After that I went inside, said hello to the dog, started warming up my stew, opened a beer, and began typing on ratsun.net :D I'm calming down a little now but jeezus tap-dancing christ, it's really hard to think of peace on earth, goodwill towards mankind sometimes. I'm going to go eat and try to rekindle my Christmas spirit.

Merry Christmas HRH,

 

DAMN, mate, chill!!!!! You are gonna hurt yourself getting THAT worked up.

Close your eyes, relax and count Datsuns, you will feel much better in the morning!

Oh by the way, if the junkies park outside your house again, maybe a broken jaw may make them think about where they park.

 

Hope you have a great Christmas,

 

Cheers Jase

Just remember, its YOUR neighborhood, your families safety.

Thats enough to ensure you do whats necessary.

Having people park outside your house, and shoot up or whatever they were doing, blows me away!!!!! I think you showed alot of self control. My temper may have got the best of me.

 

Have a great Christmas,

 

Cheers Jase

great story! I have felt like you described in your story,but not often since I got out of s.e. Portland. Good work on the "neighborhood watch" type stuff! If we all looked out for our neighborhoods like that the world would be a better place!

[Shonuff]

this is the full complete problem description as described by site management off of my work dispatch system from a call today...

 

 

Sun is too bright, customers cant read screen, please fix.

 

 

 

 

 

 

no that is not a joke and i can prove it in person for the next 3 days, i think im gonna take a pic of my blackberry, its epic.

 

 

 

 

if it wasnt for other people my job would be cake.

[Jester]

Sorry to hear the day was crap. Sounds like a lot of opportunities to be a patient man that didn't really pan out. Hope tomorrow works out better for ya.

 

I have the same problem with people sitting outside my house too. I get at least one a week. We have a pot head dealer around the corner. I was a stupid kid once, I know how it works, park around the corner so you don't sit in front of your suppliers house. Right? No body will notice if I park here. I just walk up and ask if everything is OK. They all say the same thing, I'm just waiting for a friend. That's when I usually lose it and start yelling about how they can go wait in the driveway of the blue house over there while there friend brings back their pot. They don't stay or come back. But, it's fun.

See this ^ is why i miss living in the country lol. I hate living in town with idiot neighbors that back into your cars, or people doing their drugs or fucking on your street. I came home a couple weeks ago and a suburban was parked in my driveway down my alley. IN MY FREAKING DRIVEWAY. I honked at her and she flipped me off? it was like 10 at night, so i called my wife and asked if someone was over, nope. She didnt even know someone was sitting in our driveway, engine running with out of state plates, and i did pretty much the same thing you did, just i only have a tazer not a gun :(.

 

I havent had a holiday spirit this year, between my back surgery, having to sell the 620 because of that, and just everything in general im a freaking scroodge this year. Im really tired of punk ass kids who think they are all that, im a big guy, and i have a bad back, but i have a really high pain tolerance and im about to start kicking some kids ass.

 

Just try and keep from gettin that pain in your left arm ok, its hard to do, specially living in town or around other people anymore.

 

And if anyone calls me a pussy for carrying a tazer, let me say this. A gun i can only shoot you once. A tazer, i can keep tazering you over and over again without any real sign of beating you to really torture the crap out of you if you fuck with me, my wife, or my kid. Specially my kid.

[HRH]

Heres some Christmas spirit for yah. ;)

 

 

 

Okay, that makes me feel a LOT better! Now if I could trick her into coming over for milk and cookies! ;)

 

I'm getting ready to make breakfast before heading into work now. Have a billing error to fix before we open and of course have to dig the rest of the key out of the lock, but I'm going to have a better day I think. I feel infinitely better after unloading.

[danfiveten]

Good, try to have a good one :). I wouldnt mind some of her milk and cookies. HO HO HO

[datrod]

Dang that was some good reading. You crack me up. I think I have an extra BUD that you might need. :o

[danfiveten]

Heres a question that i never understood with people. Why the hell do they use the key as a freaking handle? Is it just a level of stupidity, or laziness? I used to have drivers i worked with that pissed me off, and i got blamed once for the key breaking in the lock of a store once because of another driver who constantly did that.
