You know, there are so few things in life that I don't or can't stand. Abusiveness. Racism. Injustice. Stupidness. But you know allowances are always made. I'm quite nice at times. Sometimes I'm too nice, my friends say. I'm a sucker that way. I never want to be the one that causes grief. I'll sacrifice my own needs before others. I think altruism

Man, I admire you. I could never do hospital work. I get dizzy just from the sight of blood and I feel really uncomfortable around upset strangers. I have zero empathy skills and I never know what is the right thing to say. The hell you had to go through... you deserve a medal of honor and I'm not going to kid you about that. I'm happy you were able to get it all off your shoulders in this manner. It's healthy.
Word of advice: the minute you know it's a telemarketer... hang up. I always do and I don't care if it's rude. They're making me take time out of my life for their nonesense. Stress is a mooder ruiner. I hope you feel better soon and get plenty of sleep.

The funny thing is, sometimes, I never know what to say either. But thanks for the admiration. And Ranting is healthy. Especially in this manner. It's just fun to rant and ramble sometimes ne?
Yeah, I hear you on the hanging up thing. My dad is so funny that way. English isn't his first language, but sometimes, he doesn't even say anything and listens for a quick second and then hangs up. I ask him who it is and then he shrugs and says 'I don't know' with a cheesy smile.
Thanks, I feel better already. I just needed to vent it out, since there was no one here to tell my story to personally (everyone else was at work, and my aunt and uncle don't speak english that well, but they understood the frustration). I just hate rude people like this telemarketer.

Hehe, that's funny with your dad.
You're welcome. A lot of the time, this is the only place I can scream my 'words' out and then feel somewhat liberated. I just wrote an illustrated entry on why I love SasuSaku. I think it turned out okay, it definitely has my personality all over it.

You remind me of me. I'm the same way with peoplr and telemarketers, but now I have to say no. It took practice, but I do it now. Though my tone is always apologetic. And they always follow up with "and miss out on..."
If you went off on her, then she must have been absolutely awful on the phone. Being as nice as you are if someone pushes your buttons enough to make you explode then they probably deserved it.
Anyway, I hope things are better now. :)
