WHAT THE HELL IS IT WITH COMMUNICATION?

What do you have to do to make sure someone UNDERSTANDS what they are listening to or signing off on? If I hear this woman say one more time "that's not what I wanted" - I will pay to have both of the cast iron tubs she ordered dropped on her.

If you tell me I want a lb of red peanut M&M's and I give you a lb of red peanut M&M's dont f*ing tell me that they don't look like the red M&M's you had seen before and I obviously ordered the wrong M&M's because I did not purchase them from where you saw them.

OMG


I swear I'm going to strangle the last bit of life out her before the summer is over.
 
And while I'm kvetching - I haven't been able to breathe through my nose is just over 6 weeks and I can not take it anymore.
 
She signed for XYZ and now aint happy ? Well tell her that you're not Wal-Mart and she can eat a bag of shit. Bad customers can ruin a business....

I know what her deal is - she picks out something - hubby hates it - everyone else is responsible to have made the error because she can't be responsible for buying something with hubby's money that hubby don't like.

I can't take it anymore.
 
oh vel... right about now we both need a gallon of triple distilled vodka.

Try Nasonex or Bausch and Lomb flunisolide solution. Works really good after a few days of "loading."

omg... i know exactly what you are talking about. I HATE dealing with females when im designing houseplans.
 
I don't know what you do for a living but I can sympathize with communication issues and assholes trying to blame you for their own mistakes. MAn am I tired. Would someone like to cuddle? I could sure go for some of that and a nice long nap.
 
As you know, such is the life of client/agency work. I communicate with my clients as if they are 2 years old and retarded (the latter is typically true). Even when they say, "I want a stapler", I show them a picture of the stapler and talk them thru it to make sure they understand what they are doing (as friggin adults managing hundreds if millions of dollars in budgets). It's sad, but the reality is - it's your ass no matter what happens.

Exactly.

Or it doesn't look, in situ, the way it looked in her mind when she tried to visualize it. Blame everyone but her own choices...

You might consider taping all your conversations with clients. You can explain to prospective clients that in order to ensure you provide just exactly what they may request, you record everything to capture all the details of their plans. Then later if someone tries this bullshit, you can bust them.

Also, if you're using nasal spray, stop. Your snoot actually becomes dependent on that stuff and perpetuates the stuffyness.
 
I dont know, my allergist at the Institute for Asthma and Allergy told me that the best way ever to prevent sinus infections for people who have nasal allergies is to use a daily nasal decongestant. He said that is the #1 method and he wasnt too pleased when I told him there is no way in hell Im sticking any thingy up my nose and spraying a mist of anything up there. So, he conceded and prescribed me an oral decongestant.
 
Yea, the Decon Sprays are very addictive, not so much on the daily oral decongestants.

But he was correct on them being a good way to prevent infections by keeping things clear and flowing.
 
seriously though maybe I'll consider the nasal sprays as I have an appt with my doc next friday. and ive neen on these very expensive oral decongestants every morning and night for like over 2 months now and I still have throat congestion from my sinus cavities (the ones way in the back) draining and causing gunk in there. call me the throat clearer
 
her hubby should go by the simple rule i went by. i don't give a fuck! if someone says purple couchs will look good in my living room fuck it i'll buy them. why because I DON'T GIVE A FUCK!

not like her hubby's ass will be taking a tubby

Ash is on a combination of daily Zyrtek and Advair as needed.
Mostly in the dry winter months and spring when love is in the air.

Ask Dr Kildare about those. Advair is mainly for Asthma but used
for allergies as well. Good news is it covers both those issues with her.

This may have to be a last resort - I record (meeting minutes) and save (emails)everything else.

Hmm I have something here somewhere that is a nasal wash :worried:

The only truly positive thing about walking around with hay fever face, snot rags in your pockets and travel packets of tissues that everyone thinks you're sick - so they stay away from you.

Do you get sandpaper tongue from sleeping with your mouth open too?

I have to actually hold water in my mouth to rehydrate the tongue.

I'm doing Ok right now, but seems all the walls are closing in here, and I have stacks of papers on my desk that I have no godly idea where they come from. I'm watching the clock as I train two guys, and all the other shit they think I can work miracles with (oh I am positve you know that role) I've come close to implanting a 4"stilleto into the side of a CPU a few seconds ago. LOL

I'm about to make a trip to the 'company cabinet' downstairs and pull out a bottle of Rum or Vodka or even maybe some Crown. Sit here at my desk and just chill. LOL

Wanna join me ;)

Sounds like someone needs to GET BACK TO WORK, BIOTCH.

Work would be so much easier if it wasn't for clients and customers.
