chou chope

my first rodeo

work is an honest to goodness bitch right now.

april 17th deadline breathing down our necks, at least there's good friday between now and then. amazing that the crucifixion of christ and the annual economic crucifixion of the taxpayer would come some close this year. destiny or mere happenstance? i know not.

but i think denny said it best "CHRIST!! the economic ignorance in this country is appalling." it certainly is, mon frer. the reason i'm so busy this time of the year is because it is the only time a huge percentage of the population looks at the bottom line. we just began a period of time wherein americans have a negative savings rate. shame on us. we suck dinosaur eggs.

back to work being a bitch. remember my post about kryptic kumhos? well, i've been inundated with dumbfuck men lately~men that exhibit the same defensive bitchy mechanisms that i described women having in an auto shop in that post. thurston howell the third types who want to go on and on about how much they know about money. i find myself offering advice and being smacked with, "i know, this ain't my first rodeo," or "this isn't my first time around the block." over and over, it's like a disease. i love analogies as much as the next guy, but you can keep your age old cliches, i've heard them all.

tell ya what. this ain't my fucking first rodeo either. you can take the arrogant pompous stereotypical man out of the investment office, but you may not be able to take the pompous arrogance out of the man. jeez, you testosterone junky, it's not like YOU are the first freaking full-of-himself MAN i've ever encountered before either. i understand your deep-seated need to compensate for whatever personal issues you have, but that isn't my job. you pay me to talk about money, so leave your tiny penis issues at the door.

thanks, the management
