****The Offical ARGGGGGHHHHHH!! !! ! Thread

Post Reply New Topic

Accidently having a customer pay money, then dealing with the idea of putting up with him harassing us the next evening when we aren't able to give him a single penny back, and when the boss isn't available. "Give me my money back!" Sometimes my brain does this. *sracasum*oo, screw ME for making any form of error! * ends sarcasum*

I'm TIRED of people being jerks, and trying to 'punish' me for mistakes that they made once themselves! Mistakes have been disliked though my life. I learned that a mistake screws everything, because for me it has just about.

I make an error, person gets royaly, super pissed and gets in my face. Fun! To top it off, my boss wants to keep preaching to me, literaly to death, every !#@$% shift that I need to accept errors and stop feeling upset. I'm never @#%^ upset when she says that to me over, and over, and OVER!! !

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

well, I am happy for you, ya' geezer!

Excuse me, but I'm a paralegal and my Aspie husband is a lawyer and I call BS on this. Most of the attorneys I've worked for don't make any money and I've never made much money. If you're talking about corporate and collection and insurance defense attorneys, then ys, by all means you're absolutely correct. But if you're talking about solo, or small firm attorneys or those who work in public servicea agencies and legal aid services, then hell no. ESPECIALLY those in legal services and public interest agencies. They could be making so much more, but most make hardly anything but feel it important to help desperate people in desperate need. And make no mistake, there's a very desperate need for legal services. My husband is in private practice on an Indian reservation. He makes almost no money, but is helping to fill a very desperate need.

And if it weren't for those awful attorneys, our lives would be a lot harder, anyone whose not in the "mainstream" their lives would be a lot harder. Attorneys have fought for and won the ADA, and enforced its compliance, they were instrumental in getting special education laws passed and enforced as well as nondiscrimination laws. Corporations, schools, businesses, government agencies and private companies would run amok in general, and especially against those of us who are "different" if it weren't for attorneys. And most attorneys are far better than doctors when it comes to charging and collecting.

Now, if you wanna rant against doctors, then I'm all ears. Charging $250 for spending two minutes taking out stitches. Not even accepting patients who don't have insurance or who don't have the money upfront, regardless of how desperately they need treatment (don't even try to deny this, BTDT). Demanding exorbitant sums for minimal time, then sending the bills to collection agencies and thinking nothing of ruining a credit rating when they don't get it immediately. Thinking they know everything and refusing to do any tests or being dismissive against a patient, then refusing responsibility when the patient dies or is seriously injured due to such arrogant negligence. Refusing to use their influence to do anything about the desperate health care crisis in this country, but going ballistic over the phantom medical malpractice BS. You'd think they'd be all over wanting to do something about health care, since it means they'd actually get more money.

Most attorneys I've known and worked with try to work with people regarding money and will try to help them with payment plans or even pro bono, meaning without payment. And they don't have bloodsucking shark collection agencies, either. Just try that with most doctors. One attorney I worked for spent, literally, months in trial preparation and a couple weeks in trial for a desperate woman who could have lost her house; she had a good case but couldn't afford representation. So we helped her and we won, after hundreds of hours of work. She paid $75 a month, which was all she could afford. The boss still had to pay me and pay his overhead and expenses and still had to put food on his table and a roof over his family's head, but he still helped her and many others like her as my husband is doing. Just try that with most doctors.

And most state bar associations require their members to work a certain number of pro bono, or free, hours a year to maintain their license and eligibility. I don't recall the AMA requiring any such thing and most doctors I know would laugh at the very thought. And doctors have done FAR more damage than almost anyone else to autistics and AS and learning disabled, like me and my son and my husband.

HEY! THIS IS THE arrrrrrrgGGGHHHHHHHH! THREAD

people have to feel comfortable in posting to this thread. I have stopped myself from commentting on a lot of stuff and I AM NOT COMMENTING ON YOUR COMMENTS.

I am just saying responses about why people are going ARRRRRRRGGGGGHGHHH!! !! ! is not what this thread is about.

thanks,

Merle

Sorry, you're right!

I guess I'm a little oversensitive about such comments because you can only hear so much of that before you just wanna go ARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !!

A definite ARRRGGGGHHHHHHH!! !! for me are those NT's who whine and moan about how horrible it is to have to deal with us awful people. Like we do and say things on purpose just to get to them and just to inconvenience or embarrass them. Like life isn't difficult and exhausting for us EVERY single freaking day. They don't have to deal with what we have to endure every day. We can't change our wiring or our brains. And I'm sick and damn tired of hearing the same things over and over and over. If I COULD change things I WOULD but I CAN'T, so leave me the HELL alone. ARRRGGGHHHHHHHHH!! !! !! !! ! And that goes especially for employers, (I've ALWAYS had problems with EVERY job), my churches, and some of my Aspie son's educators throughout the years.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! !! !! !! !

My son is NOT the only person in this family who is on the spectrum! Stop f**king making noise while I'm trying to rest!! !! !

What a disparaging comment on my post... hrumpf!
"geezer: A term of derision applied esp. to men, usu. but not necessarily elderly; a chap, fellow."
If was was any good at taking offence, I'd take some, but as I'm not, I won't. So there!:)

Fluffy Bunnies, are my Arghhhh! Today.

Why fluffy bunnies? Because they always jump out in front of me on the road. And I instinctively hit the brakes. This is dangerous to the cars behind me. I am not suppose to hit the breaks, just squish the bunny all over the highway.

But you know, they are so cute, so tiny, so fluffy, so defenseless. I would just feel so bad about myself for at least a few hours if I was to squish a fuzzy little bunny crossing the road.

So Bunnies, stay out of the road, use the crosswalk!

I suppose there are good lawyers. But I just don't have the time to sort the few out. It is kind of like having jelly beans with only one kind you like in the mix. It is just easier to throw them all out rather then sorting out just the red ones.

I honestly have never met a lawyer I really liked. But I am sure there are lots that are doing good for the community.

I agree, about the $250 an hour. I cannot imagine anyone being so good at what they do as to charge $250 a hour. People that do this should be drug out into the street shot, and forced to hire a lawyer at $250 a hour doctor medical bills to get the wound fixed.

It ought to be criminal. Gross profit off the weak, innocent, sick, and injured. Too shame.

Yeah, I hear you there. One of the scarist things I had happen while driving, I stopped to let pedestrians pass me. The car behind me got really impatient, sped around me and damn near hit the pedistrains. I was so pissed at this impatient jerk. It scared the couple crossing the street almost to death as a pick up truck nearly mowed them over in their neighborhood street.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH MALL SECURITY GUYS! THEY ACT LIKE YOU ARE THE BANE OF EXISTANCE IF YOU ARE YOUNGER THAN 30! PLUS MY MOM AND SISTER HAVE BEEN IN A DAMN EMOTIONAL WRECK BECAUSE MY SISTER'S EX BOYFRIEND HAS BEEN ACTING LIKE AN ASS!! ! I AM ALWAYS STUCK PICKING UP THE DAMN PEICES AND PUTTING THEM TOGETHER AND FRANKLY I AM ALMOST WORN OUT BY ALL THIS,BECAUSE NO ONE REALLY TELLS ME WHAT IS GOING ON CAUSE THEY ARE SO DAMN AFRAID ILL GET TOO UPSET!! !

Holidays in a college town. AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH! Any excuse to crank up the music, get drunk, and play window rattling music on the car stereo at three o'clock in the morning! Now it's Easter. Holy Hell. what on earth has Easter got to do with playing loud music through my bedroom wall, stumbling in drunk two nights in a row, and thumping around like Japanese Sumo wrestlers? AAAARRRRGGHGHH!

My college town does this even WITHOUT the excuse of holidays!! ! THe guys living above me get drunk and play DDR!! !! ALL NIGHT!! !! STOMP STOMP STOMP STOMP STOMP...how OLD ARE YOU?!?

AAAAARRRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!! !! !! !!

(they are gone as of this afternoon though )

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! !

Rant against the world!

That is why I couldn't stand living on campus when going to college. The noise was too much.
