The one that I HATED the most was in a hosiery mill. The department I was in made house slippers for hospitals.The kind with rubber soles. The rubber for the soles was melted and formed right there and about a dozen of us had to take razor sharp scissors and trim the rubber off each slipper and then match them. We had to do around 100 pairs an hour to make production. Keep in mind these were 12 hr shifts, in NC, in July with no ac. To this day I can't wear house shoes, I wear thongs.

OT: IRKED

I have a myspace account and I have worked min wage jobs. As a single mother I worked any job I could get to support my family. Right now in this economy there are plenty of educated, professional people who would be grateful for any type of employment. It saddens and disgusts me that there are people who think they are better than the cashier at the grocery store or the waitress that takes their order at a restaurant.

Drama Queen

Yesterday SFIL came over, he wanted to give us a few things that had belonged to MIL. She had made a photo album and scrapebook for H to give him for his birthday in June. The album was baby and childhood pics, the scrapebook was from his time in the Army. I thought is was very sweet and thoughtful, he loved it. So SFIL and H were talking about MIL and what type of headstone should be bought when sd comes home. Since no one was paying attention to her she starts acting like a 3yr old. The more we tried to talk the louder and more manic she got.

OT sort of

Since we don't have any small children in the house and yesterday was so nice I decided to have a little fun. When I was working as a waitress I had to buy several white blouses, don't know why they wanted us to wear white. Anyway I don't like to wear white myself, gets too dirty, and I'm too cheap to throw them away. I have about a dozen huge margarine buckets that we used at the restaurant. So there I was bored and looking for something to do when it hit me, I have the buckets and blouses that I would like to wear so I decided I'd dye them.

I thnk it's funny

H had to work last night and when he came in this morning he was fussing about his job. Apparently the boss's 5 yr old daughter was in the office yesterday and made a huge mess. H was complaining about having to clean the mess, cleaning the office is part of his job. He said and I quote "She's not my kid so why should I clean her mess." He then starts with how he's not appreciated for all his work and they never say thank you to him. I couldn't help myself, I started laughing. When he asked what was so funny I told him that is exactly how he treats me.

I'm so P@#$@# at H right now

At therapy today (he has to go 3 days a week) H started whining that he wished we could have had a baby together. Dr. asks me how I felt and I told the truth. There is no way I would have a child with H. I figured that the best way to tell him this was while we were in session. Dr. wants to know why I feel this way. I tell him that H is too controlling as it is and would be worse if I were ever to have gotten pregnant. H had already said that if this had happened he would monitor everything I did, everything I ate, take total control of my life. How crazy is that?
