DO YOUR FUCKING JOB

I realize getting paid minimum wage sucks and that many jobs that pay only minimum wage are tedious.

But when you applied did you tell them "oh by the way I will do the bare minimum and at times not even that because I am a lazy self absorbed asshole and I feel like I am justified to do this because I REALLY think I deserve MORE pay an hour (even though I have NEVER worked hard for it).

If you work at Mc Donalds get my fucking order right ok?  I order 3 fries for $3.00 and what ever else I order I am not able to handle it when I arrive home to starving children and a long day to dinner for SOME kids but not ALL the kids.... or fries for SOME of my kids but NOT ALL OF MY KIDS...I WANT ALL THE FRIES I ORDERED. INEED3. IORDERED3. GIVEME3.

If I go to Starbucks and order a tall non fat latte no foam THATSACTUALLYWHATIWANT. I want that latte to be made with non fat milk and a tall size and no foam because I want all the milk I paid for OK?

When I go to VONS I want you to be sure you look around after you bag my order and make sure you PUT EVERYTHING I bought IN my BAG! I need the toothpaste or toilet paper desperately and do not have the time or the energy to go back to this store tonight to retrieve what your missed and I don't want my kids using the washcloth or towel on the rack after they pee (and I can only pray they only use it once and then throw it in the laundry but I cant be sure....) its my business if I ran out of tp its your business to get the shit in my cart when I leave!

When I go to Einsteins Bagels and ask you ever so nicely "please cut the 6 bagels I cannot cut them myself, thank you so much".  And when I arrive home to 6 uncut bagels I want to fucking drive back to that fucking bagel store on Regents and run inside and shank you.

DOYOUFUCKINGJOB its not THAT hard.

You are getting PAID if you CANT do your job for that pay QUIT PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mean really, this fucking city, state country, people what ever, you all suck. You generation F for fuckups DO your fucking job thats why you get paid at all.

Kids / Chores Responsibility

Someone please tell my daughters that:


1)  I am supposed to tell them how to do things correctly.


2) I am supposed to remind them to be responsible for themselves.


3) I am supposed to tell them to do a better job when i KNOW  they can. 


Please also tell them I do this because I AM A GOOD MOM not mean. That I am NOT supposed to be their friend but their guide, leader & mother. 

Oh one more thing could you please let them know that being part of a family means certain innate responsibilities towards the care and keeping of the family and home this is expressed in chores. This is not optional this is real life and when they grow up they will also have to clean their house, their kitchen, their bathroom (including the inside of the toilet) their own laundry, their car, their living room...well you get the idea. 


Any volunteers to do my communicating?


 Oh wait one more thing gratitude goes a long way.


PS this is my SHORT LIST

START AT THIS AGE FOLKS TRUST ME

Bad Mom

Why is it rationally, I KNOW I am a GOOD MOM.  But then something happens and emotionally I feel like a BAD MOM.

When a child does something normal like covet the possessions of others why cant I just use it as an opportunity for growth..and then LET IT GO....I mean I make it a grand lesson (with thanks from Professor Leslie Lewis) of learning how the other child would FEEL if they were to have their precious item taken. Lets say a generally kind and thoughtful 6 year old sees a toy she just has a HUGE impulse to take from a friends back pack and for what ever reason at that moment the nice child isn't able to resist the urge to take the toy even though her conscience is already nagging at her saying "this is probably bad and will lead to trouble" and she takes the toy.

Interestingly enough the child almost immediately feels guilty (this is a good thing) and turns the toy over to the teacher with out an explanation. So the impulse was too strong to resist yet the guilt was too strong to keep the toy and the self preservation and embarrassment prevents the child from fessing up to the teacher the details.

In comes GOOD MOM.  Mom speaks to teacher and is informed that the child gave the toy to the teacher but refused to explain where it came from.  Mom takes 30 seconds alone with child to ascertain the complete story and promptly takes child to the Vice Principal with whom she has the upmost respect for. VP handles it nicely talks about the pain it would cause the other child but also talks about giving the toy to the teacher was a right step in the process of making things right and telling truth to mom too was GOOD but lets say it now...stealing a toy from a classmate/friend is WRONG.

Mom takes child back to class and child immediately apologizes to classmate/friend.  The mom before leaving the child hugs her and tells her "I love you and while I am disappointed in the behavior I still feel you are a GOOD child and understand that urge to covet other peoples possessions. Lets work on ways to resist the impulse in the future like tugging your earlobe or stamping your feet a few times until the urge passes".

Child later that day suggests pretend pulling the bad idea in her head to do something "naughty" out of her ear next time. Cute. Mom feels like child gets message all is well. This is normal childhood shit.

Why do I feel like a BAD MOM.  Why do my emotions tell me "oh this incident means serious problems in the future" and "you should spend every minute of every day reviewing all parenting choices past and present to locate the BAD parenting and FIX it."

SHIT kids take things especially at the age of 6. The child had remorse and the mom handled it beautifully....but yet...I still feel like a BAD MOM. My head is NOT MY FRIEND.
