Today I would like to complain about two things.... Highschool girls and stupid people.
First, Highschool girls. Not just any highschool girls, but the ones that walk around the mal saying things like "Oh, my god, did you see his shoes?!" I have determined that these are the peopl that the fashon industy makeds clothes for. For example... if you go to Wal-mart, you can buy two kinds of women's jeans: Jeans that fit your natural waist (which for me is two inches above my belly button).... or jeans made for highschool girls. Highschool girl jeans are built for girls who have no shape... they have no butt and no thighs, and they wear their jeans about two inches below their hipbone. But, becuase I am not a high school girl, by the time I find jeans that will stretch around me and cover the top of my but, they are like, four miles too long. And I refuse to wear old lady jeans that fit around my rib cage.... so that leaves me one option: boys jeans. Now, their is nothing intrensicly wrong with boys jeans, but it bothers me sometimes that I can't get cute jeans with flares or embroidery or anything.... grr. And I even tried more expensive jeans, but htey still don't fit me right. so I'm stuck with boys jeans. All because of evil highschool girls.
Now, stupid people. If you know nothing about computers, and you cannot read and follow written instructions, you should not work in a webshop. How hard is that? I have written detailed procedures manuals for everything we do.... and yet, I'm spending the next two days (and yesterday) holding someone's hand and nursing them through a fairly simple task. We're working on rev2 conversions.... they involve no codeing, only cutting and pasting... how hard is that? But no, every step I have to go over a million times. Dadgum it. Work somewhere that isn't a computer based field. Grrr.
Ok. I guess that's about it. I'm done now.
