Complaining Kiwi - Cheers for that!
 
Hows this for a reply rosie - I knew I would regret sending as soon as I looked back here.

My tantrum is over!  you are right there is soo much more in life to be worried about - i have it super easy - and shouldn´t have tantrums!  Am currently preparing food - which will definitely cheer me up - as i am starving too!  no food all day!  doesn´t help when you are hungry.

CHEERS FOR THAT!!!!

Meet you on the beach - I will save you a lounge chair and a cute cabana man!

Vicki is absolutely right! I personally think teaching is one of the most ungrateful jobs in the world - someone is always complaining - sometimes it �s the kids, sometimes their parents, other times your colleagues, and sometimes your boss. You simply can �t please everybody, and at the end of the day, I �m so tired that I can �t please my family when I get home from word, which is sad.

I agree with you, people here should be more supportive.
 
Have a nice day Vicki, I hope you feel better tomorrow.

LOL!
 
Get it off your chest girl, why don �t you!?
 
You know how many times I had days like that and felt like shouting friggin JEEZ LOUISE from the roof tops.
 
I �m sorry that you made Mother �s Day cards that weren �t appreciated. That sucks big time.
 
I �m also sorry you worked so hard to develop computer resources that weren �t appreciated. That sucks like King Kong Shlurrping on a king-size straw.
 
But as for the typos and other miniscule irrelevant detail I might ordinarily say �Hey, that sucks big green donkey gonads too � but REALLY just forget it. (I just got some bad news in hospital last week - nothing like a big fat reality check for a wake-up call to the THINGS THAT REALLY MATTER.)
 
I �m a newbie here and have been keeping a very low profile basically because I �m a bit of a computer retard still trying to figure out how to make a decent ws but also because ever since I �ve been here all I seem to see are over-zealous individuals going nuts over silly things.
 
There are lots of hidden agendas going on, lots of posts that scream  �Look at me! � and lots of people that need to �Get A Life �.
 
So, Cheers to you! Cheers for bringing a smile to my face this morning - I know it wasn �t your intention to entertain - but you just blurted out randomly all your day �s frustrations and it hit a cord with me, ya �know?
 
Don �t ask others to give you a break honey, give yourself a break , you sure deserve it!
 
Let �s have a break together. Fiji perhaps? With cabana boys serving up margaritas all day long??  How does that sound?Wink
 
Cheer for that,
 
Rozianne.

Still, at least you live in a beautiful country - the dairy products & the chocolate are sooooo yummy.....

Tantrums are good to have occasionally - they clear the mind & get us to refocus on worthwhile  things after we realise how silly we look (& I don �t need to chuck a tanty to look silly)

Cheers cobber!

oh, & the wine & beer are pretty respectable too!

HOLY COW WOMAN!

Now you deleted your post and made me look like a freakin lunatic! 

Let �s see what my options are.....
 
1. Send out nasty chain mail to all board members full of spiteful, petty, small-minded nonsense.
 
2. Have a truckload of smelly cabbages delivered to your door.
 
3. Meet you in Fiji anyways.
 
OK. Okay. After much deliberation I decided to go for the Fiji option. BUT....
 
I get first grabs on the cabana boy, OK?  He �s mine. Wink
 
Glad I cheered you up - you did the same for me in a perverted kind of way.
 
REMEMBER. Don �t sweat the small stuff!
 
PS Let �s invite cheezels along too. Looks like she �s got some great snacks to bring along.
 
PPS OH....MY.....YUM YUM    Borna, You are also invited on my trip.  BRING HIM TOO!!

Hey, if I could get HIM
 
 
to come to the beach with ME, you think I would stay at YOUR party?
I don �t think so!!!
Even if there are some really cool snacks and cocktails and great fellow teachers that really MADE MY DAY this morning (I �m having a terrible week since 2 years ago...), I would prefer hanging out with Simon Baker, sorry girls!
