Sorry, my left brain is pun-disabled. They put me in a special class but I could never get the homework finished.

Why are studio apts in SF so fucking expensive?
How can anyone afford to fucking live in the bay area?
If I move out there it looks like I'd be stuck in Sacramento which really fuckin sucks.
And I learned that Sprint is outsourcing my job to IBM in early 04 which will have it go to New Delhi, India!

Fucking smile, it gets better. I might get to start all over and head West! It's not all fucking bad.

I hear rent's pretty cheap in New Delhi compared to San Francisco. Close to the same number of homeless too.

Now I'm pissed, and I need to rant. So anyone who doesn't give a shit about the Project, then go fuck yourself.
I am fucking SICK of the BOrg making nice noises to me about how good my work is on the porta-potties, (after I club them over the fucking HEAD)and that they appreciate what I've done for the Event and blah blah blah. Then they fucking badmouth me behind my BACK. Yah, I do have a few friends, and I do get word back. I'm the fucking Shit Queen... SO DON'T FUCK WITH ME! But do I get fucking REAL recogition, like even a fucking write-up on the website? FUCK NO! I found the fuck-ups at Easter Fucking Island and I puting up their fucked up signs that didn't fucking WORK, and glowing noises about how their fucking camp. This was ONLY because John the ringleader is personal friends with LadyBee. Well, we know about how the fucking BOrg politics work...BY FUCKING AND SUCKING! 2002 was a fucked up FAILURE for potties...we had 50% BAD SHIT that year because the Fucking Easter Island Fuckups made a serious design error and then dropped the fucking BALL! This year I picked up the ball again, cause NOBODY CAN STOP ME!!! and I put up the signs with a help from volunteers, and then spend at LEAST 4 hours a day-- often 8, doing the Good Work, on top of working full time at the Gate. This year as of Thursday, they had pumped 65,000 gallons of grey/black water + pottie contents and asside from a few items (a shirt, assorted cans/bottles/cigarette butts/tampons), it was fucking CLEAN SHIT! I actually started crying when Mike Enos the Ops Manager of JotS told me that. We were well above their expectations, and tickled with our improvement. Did the website put anything up about this year's pottie activities??? FUCK NO! And that is exactly what pisses me off. I have a bit of an EGO to massage, and I don't fucking ask for much, but I want SOMEONE to FUCKING APPRECIATE ME!!!!!!!!! NO, my big mouth just embarrasses them. Well THAT is EXACTLY why I'm doing this in the first place! I GET OFF ON RANTING, and Potties just HAPPENDS to be my TRIP! But they'd rather throw YOUR TICKET DOLLARS AT THE PROBLEM instead of solving it at the source. But that's a different rant. Adrian's going to get an article next year, cause I HATE CENSORSHIP. But that's a different rant altogether.
Finished? Well...FUCK YOUR DAY!

RobbiDobbs,

Sadly you will never know how many of us appreciate the awesome job you did this year. The potties were the best I've seen them in 4 burns. The signs and MOOP reminders were excellent. I doubt very many of us could appreciate how unpleasant BM would be if no one took on the task that you did.

I didn't speak up when this came up in another thread because others already congratulated you on a job well done. I guess we should have all posted, because I'm quite certain that the participants appreciate your work even if the Org doesn't!

FWIW I appreciated the effort.

It'd be dishonest to believe that the potties haven't treated me much better than I've treated them.

while i appreciate your efforts, and realize that you put way more time into a very critical part of the event management than you officially get credit for, i've got to say that expecting to get your ego fed for anything you do for the org is pretty pointless. there are much bigger egos higher up in the food chain that'll eat it all before any gets to you...

FUCK?


I've always wanted to put that on a t-shirt. Just big, capital letters and most importantly, with the questionmark. It leaves the audience hanging, making them draw their own conclusions as to it's meaning and intent. Most importantly, it makes them think... for whatever a brief amount of time, it makes them think.

Rodent,
One of my favorite Tshirts reads, "Fuck you you fucking fuck."

Of course it was meant sarcastically.

I appreciate you, I really do. Potties are probably the MOST critical factor in the continued existence and success of the event.

I believe I saw you outside the potties one day, you were ranting something similar to your post above through a bull horn, reminding everyone that "I'm not getting paid to do this, and after this I'm going to put in a FULL greeter shift...". I thought it was some kind of shtick at first, guess not.

You might consider doing things that make you feel good inside and stop worrying about external rewards and recognition. Take comfort in the fact that most people who do receive such public accolades rarely deserve them.

There's talk that some of us will be asked to train our replacements. Considering the thread topic, what do you think my answer will be?

Absolutely no fucking way. They'll host Disney on Ice in hell before that happens.

Assuming the training takes place in India I'd jump at the opportunity. Might as well make something good out of a bad situation. Pack your Lonely Planet travel book, train the replacements on how to do everything wrong and head out to Goa. You'll return a changed man and you'll have boned your employer to boot.

Badger, I originally planned to take your advice clear down to the Lonely Planet books. But now they don't want to ship us over there, they are bringing in IBM first, then letting them do a global restructuring. It makes Sprint look like a good fucking corporate citizen. Let IBM send the fucking jobs overseas.

They quoted something about the competition has lower costs...74% of every revenue dollar goes back to paying for people like me....I find that hard to believe but that's the story.

To keep this short I'm not upset, I'm happy it's happening. It's forcing change. I won't get into it here but there's a STRONG POSSIBILITY I will be living in the Bay Area by March 04 for a year or so. Unless Sprint offers me a damn good reason to stay here, I know the BA has issues but being in the 27th largest market in the US vs. SF limits your opportunities. Expect to see me fly when I get the chance. (Plus I want to be around more of the core Burner community, even though I love KC and what bOOzer and Hoopes are doing here)

One other nice thing...knowing the wings are coming off my job here, coupled with other things has let me do some serious ass kicking that I held off doing as I tried to be "nice". No more anti-depressant hell, no more bullshit on so many things. Once I got tapered off the anti-depressant stuff 2 weeks ago it's like being put on an F-15 with full afterburners. Wow, what a difference. Anyway I went TMI with this....but out of darkness comes some of the best possiblities. That's how I see things right now!

FUCK!! There is not enough fucking on this page. Granted, i am currently too lazy to ready all of the other 28 pages of posts thus far, but rather had something to fucking contribute. And then what?? Nary a fuck. OT! OT!

So, here my alter-ego will step in. (She will be the virgin we all defile next year.... he he he he he he he he..)

'Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
Fuck the sky is falling!
Fuck life is crazy!
Fuck this fucking sucks!'


(It's been a fucking long day at the fucking hospital where our friend can't get fucking medical care because he is too fucking broke and the system fucking sucks. Fucking funny how they need to fucking operate until they discover that you have no fucking greenbacks.)

Have you ever noticed how funny the word 'fuck' looks when you've used it more than 5 times in a paragraph?

FUUUUUCK (camp)

Thanks for welcoming my best friend to the eplaya, and soon to the actual playa!)
