seriously. i am pissed. do i look pissed? i am. really. pissed.i spoke to an agent at washington state unemployment today and we actually argued about semantics (btw, she didn't know what that meant). ok, back me up here - there IS a big difference between being TOLD something and ASSUMING something, right? am i crazy? lady kept changing my wording to "assumed" in spite of my protest.
i finally got to the point where i was livid. "i don't mean to be rude, but you do understand the difference in what i'm saying and what you're reading back to me, don't you? you're changing a very pivotal word and i am not happy with this."
of course she didn't understand. duh.
the caption for this photo would be, "do i look like i give a crap? hell no!"i don't think this is the agent i talked to but really, what's the difference? she pretty much hated me and clucked, guffawed and sighed after i answered each question. way to have a heart. thank you. 
look, i know you're overworked, but i'm hungry! i'm angry! i'm so flippin' frustrated that i can't even see straight at times!
look, i know you're overworked, but i'm hungry! i'm angry! i'm so flippin' frustrated that i can't even see straight at times! my life is slipping away from me like one of those lame ass expensive houses that dumb rich people build on the edges of cliffs in areas of high rainfall.
yup, that's my life.
bitch bitch bitch. yeah, i know. but times are rough.
unemployment rates keep rising and benefits sources are dwindling. i know this means more people are gonna get denied than really ought to, but why me? cut me some slack here.
sweetie, being out of work is the LEAST of your problems.
i'm a nice girl. i'm smart, experienced (get your minds outta the gutter!), educated, well spoken, a snappy dresser, etc. i just can't find a job. i'm losing it here. please don't take my benefits away - they're all i got!

WORD! I have three friends in LA that have been out of work for over a year. They went to good schools and have never had any problems up until now. Don't even get me started on Portland. Seriously, does anybody have a job here right now? It sucks so hard. My only comfort is that we're all in the same crammed "how the fuck am i going to pay the phone bill" boat that hopefully won't sink. I have no friggen idea how to swim.
xoxo
