Couple of things that I will not do again

Blind loyalty is moronic.

That said, there are some things that I will not do again.

1. I will never eat at a Ponderosa restaurant. I went into one in 1988 and saw a picture advertising what looked like a big juicy steak of the variety that I wanted. I ordered it and when it got to the table it was a small steak at best. I walked over to the picture and looked again to make sure that I saw the right one and I did. I vowed then to never ever eat at a Ponderosa again and I have not.

The rest are more recent and I am going to leave out some things in between.

2. I will never order from Breck's Bulbs again. I have had several problems with flowers not growing at all and lots of problems with their so-called perennials not coming back the next year. I decided to give them another chance and ordered 100 dollars worth of plants this year. Half of the order were plants that get shipped in the spring. I went out and made three new raised gardens to put the plants into, ( yes, I cut the wood, put it together and painted it then dug up the sod and put the framing into position and bought new high quality garden soil to fill them with). The original date on their site that I should expect delivery was 5/19/2016. They changed that several times and I finally got the stuff on 5/27/2016. When it got here some of the plants already had blooms that were dead and brown and the foliage was turning yellow. The other plants were bareroots that were all clumped together in the 2 separate bags. I managed to somewhat separate one of the types of plant into the 6 pieces that were supposed to be there, but there were already new growth shoots and planting them was a nightmare as the new growth was going the same direction as the roots. The other type had all grown into one plant it seemed and there were supposed to be 3.

Breck's stated that they would refund my money and cancel the rest of the order and I also had them remove me from their email and catalog mailing lists. As soon as my money is refunded they will never hear from me again.

3.Just today I found out something else that I will never do. I will never again buy seafood from Kroger. I work at the Kroger store in question. I went in and saw a sign in the case that I thought read 3.99/lb on the salmon. So I got three little skinny fillets and when the clerk weighed them and I saw 11.97 I rechecked the sign and saw that it was 3.99 each for a little 6 Oz. fillet. There is another sign right on the case that says the salmon is 7.99/lb. Why were the 6 Oz. fillets in the case at 3.99/lb? The same kind of salmon right next to the strips was 7.99/lb. That is a blatant rip off and I apologize to anyone that shopped at the store and got had by that scam. Why didn't my co-worker double check that I knew the price was each? I won't be saying hello to him anytime soon either.

To add, I also noticed that the seafood cooler unit next to the department was empty and someone was working on it. I am wondering if they took stuff out of that case after it went down and unwrapped it and put it into the main case? Is that how they knew that the strips were 6 Ozs each? Is that where they got the rip off price?

Just fucking wonderful

I said that the car was on its last legs. One of them broke and now I have no car. I am even further limited as to where I can work now. The car was a 1999 Buick Regal and apparently there was a known problem with various models from GM that came out around then with the rear struts and strut mounting areas at the top. The whole area that the strut is mounted to at the top, visible inside the trunk, comes apart or rusts out and the whole strut tower can end up going through it into the trunk itself. That was on its way to happening, but the strut actually broke and ended up against the rear tire first. Because the area was not too far from giving way, the struts were not able to be replaced by the guy that gave my mother the car. He is a friend of the family and only gave it to her because she needed a way to get back and forth to her various doctor appointments. She did not drive it very much.

Now we are both screwed for transportation.

None of that would have happened if the local places I applied had hired me for jobs that I am very capable of doing. That is why I applied to them in the first place. I don't want a challenge, I want a job to go to and do it without bullshit games and lowlife idiots. I am there to do my job, and get my paycheck, and that is the only reason that I would be there.

I hate the whole feeble minded, pathetic, idiot, need their hands held every second of the day even at work crowd. While they are all holding hands and being one big happy family someone else has to get all the work done. If someone else is doing the work, why the fuck are the others even there?


I hate the Lansing area as a whole. Not everyone here sucks, but this is where my life got destroyed and for that I will always hate this fucking area.

All I want is a part-time job to start with, and that means hours for the scamming assholes, that may or may not work into more hours or I can get a different job down the road either way. I am not going to party or socialize with anyone in this area. I am going to do my job, get my paycheck and go home. I want to save what I can until my mother and my cats live out their lives and then I am going to leave this shit hole of an area for good.

If I can get a decent job in this game playing, gossiping moron filled shit hole of an area.
