No excuse...


There’s this woman at work who gets all emotional over the over use of staples, treats everyone like they’re 6 years old and insists she knows more than everyone else and she will argue to the death other it and go into a snit if she loses that fight. In short, she is a pain in the arse bully with no respect for others. Someone told me yesterday that she had a hard childhood and that’s the reason behind her behavior. Ah no – that’s not a reason. That’s a made for television movie with B grade actors. No one I know had a Brady Bunch childhood. Stuff happened to everyone but you get by. You learn from it, toughen up and move into adulthood. By 35 you should have worked that out. You don’t use that as an excuse for being a rude, condescending, stick-up-the-arse cow for the rest of your life. It doesn’t wash with me. Grow up. No one owes you. If anything you owe it to yourself to make your own life better. Oh yeah...there's trouble in River City...

OMG, I hate the "I hate a rough childhood"EXUCSE! Please! No one has a perfect childhood. Yes a lesson I learned early was from my grandmother and aunt who came from a famlily of 13 anything you did not get as a kid get it as an adult. Change the past by making your kids lives better. Thes advice was GET OVER IT and live like there is no TOMORROW. I dislike the excuse police who claim every problem they have is because of there horrible childhood.
