This often means letting people go unfortunately. You are right that it isn't you. Best of luck to you in finding a new job. With that great attitude, you have a lot to offer!

Hi Dname, quite a lot for a bloke to go through. Many in the same boat, but when it's actually you, it feels very lonely.

Hi everyone.
Haven't been lurking for awhile. Just had to give Faughty a way to vent. You guys in these halls can really make a difference to ppl who are hurting.

I'll add to that people who don't clear their windows except a peep hole out the front, so they can't see anything around them!

Not getting Last Post because I was too busy chatting and not just typing Last Post over and over.

And I OFFICIALLY hate my router! It is SOOO time for a new Styx.

1. "Cash for Gold" commercials.
2. Wet shoes on my plastic carpet protector.
3. Jon and kate plus 8.

Other hateful things:
1) Snow that is too cold to pack
2) Snow that is really just white fluffy shards of ice
3) Snow that is mixed with mud or decomposing leaves
4) Black ice on sidewalk outside of my door due to dripping eaves
5) Black ice that somehow always forms right next to my car door
6) Ice that falls off of tree limbs onto my head
7) Lack of ice in the icebox.
8) Generally, the weather where I am where it seems it's below 25 degrees from November to April. Except those days it's 50 and rainy, then freezes.

Turning on the AC in February.

Friends of mine in college waited until their wedding day before their first kiss on the mouth. They pecked on cheeks and foreheads all the time, but the first mouth kiss was after the minister said "you may kiss her."

That girl almost passed out as she swooned. It was really neat for all of us in the crowd, and I think many of us secretly wished we had done that before we got married...

I've had several friends wait for the first kiss with each other as well. There is a range. Some people are astonished at waiting to kiss and yet it is equally as weird to wait to sleep together or even waiting to live together.

Aha! In keeping with the spirit of this thread, I really hate how hindsight is 20/20 and we so frequently wish we had done things differently at the time and we can't go back and do anything about it!

I hate that even with the philosophy of having no regrets, I still have regrets for stuff that happened.

complete loons. what if they turn out to have some weird reaction when they kiss at the wedding? "ew, he put his tongue in my mouth. blech" "her teeth are all 'furry'. hurl!" "I'm, I'm allergic. Quick, the epi-pen!"
