TrixieMama User ID: 76377729 United States 05/22/2018 11:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am not internally circuited for a sales job. At my job we work as a "team", but we all receive different paychecks based upon individual commission. I've been working here for over a month and have already witnessed coworkers trying to shark my initial sale and make it their own. I've seen a coworker belittle another coworker just to make a sale, on more than one account.... Quoting: Master of Nothing This whole dog eat dog world is something I've wanted to escape from. Where people will stand on your shoulders to kick your teeth in, just to get ahead in "life". Backstabbers and 2 faced liars abound. I accepted this job to appease my families worries and concerns for my future, not for my own. I turn 30 this week and they've been using my age as a reason to " get my shit together" and, to essentially live a life that they would approve of. When my dad, (saying all this)...doesnt understand me at all. Trivial first world problems I know... but have mercy lord, I feel so fucking alone here. Well....I really wish I could just give you a great big hug. Been there. I'll be 45 this year and am a single mom, ex husband left when daughter was 7 days old. I know FIRSTHAND how it feels to have parents tell you that you aren't living a life they approve of. I got pregnant before marriage, moved across the country to be with my ex husband who was in the military, got married 2 weeks before my son's birth. Ex husband had a mental breakdown and left us when daughter was 7 days old leaving 20 bucks in the bank for me as a stay at home mom....I went back to school, furthered my degree, worked a job I hated but was trying to impress my family, broke my back and was told I may never walk again without a walker or cane. I recovered and went back to work full time again, met a man shortly after recovery and fell head over heals. We moved in together and my parents thought I was the worst parent ever for displaying such poor morals and values to my kids. That relationship fizzled and now i'm happily single. My point in sharing all this highly personal junk is this...i'll be 45 next month. I have an awesome job, I have an awesome family (even though they drive me nuts and rag on me A LOT), i'm buying a house and going back for my masters degree. I have my shit together BUT not in my parents eyes. I won't ever live a life that fits the standard my parents set but thats ok. MoN, our parents will always be parents and I didn't realize much of this until I had children of my own. The kids are now 10 and 13 and I have a better understanding of why parents feel and act the way they do. We want the best for our children and in our eyes, nothing will ever be good enough. We want our children to succeed and prosper, to not experience the loss and struggles we have gone through. Just know this...your parents love you and even when they rag on you (gosh that word *rag* dates me) about wanting you to excel in life, it's really cause they want good things for you...unfortunately as parents, we don't always express it the right way and we lose sight of our boundaries. It's hard to see your baby grow up and get wings of their own. I catch myself everyday and have to remind myself to let mine experience life without me hounding them so much because it's fleeting. I hope this helps and makes sense. You aren't alone, we've all been there and some of us (ME) are still there when it comes to not meeting the standards our parents set for us.

Isis One User ID: 75230280 United States 05/22/2018 11:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Earlier today my daughter texted me saying that there was a threat to her school this Friday. A school shooting threat. She said while she was in her history class her teacher and the students were talking about it. It was the first my daughter had heard about it. Quoting: Simple27 According to her history teacher there's been some writing in one of the boy's bathrooms about a school shooting there on May 25th. Apparently it was found and cleaned up by the janitor only to be rewritten. More than once. Well tonight I got one of those robo calls from her school saying that they found something written in a boy's bathroom 3 weeks ago saying that there would be a school shooting there either May 25th or May 28th. The message went on to say that they've done a thorough investigation and found no credible evidence to suggest such a threat, but as a security caution there will be a police presence at the school on both of those dates. My daughter told me that the school cancelled detention today to have a meeting about this with the principal, vice principal, etc. She said they never cancel detention. I think her history teacher's version of the story makes more sense. It must've been written again yesterday or today for that robo call to go out tonight to all of the parents. Totally a stress I do NOT need right now. My kiddo will be staying home. With the doors locked as we live right across the street from the damn school. UGH! jeezus, what the fuck next????

I love my dad to death... and I shouldn't blame him for his predetermined beliefs he pushes on me. He does want whats best for me. And all he knows is the broken, unfair system we call our every day lives. Life is hard, parenting is harder. I really didn't understand why my parents, mom specifically treated me the way she did until I became a mom. Then I understand what love really was all about. A few years later i started to see how that same love drove me literally insane wanting the best for my kids. At that point, I had to step back. I did what I tell my nursing students all the time....Yo, check yourself before you wreck yourself! When I realized I was pushing my wants and desires on my kids, I backed off. I don't always get it right but I try really hard not to mess it up too much. For example, when my son was little I told him over and over again that I wanted him to grow up, get married and live with me so I never had to be away from him or my future grandchildren. When he was 10 out of the blue he said, Mommy, i'm never leaving you, i'm going to make my wife live with you and you will take care of our kids. At that moment I realized I was in the process of wrecking myself and wrecking my son's future marriage. Wow! How selfish of me to impose my wants, and more importantly my NEEDS on my child to where he felt he had to comply to make me happy. Nope. The last 3 years I have told him I want him to travel the world and follow his heart...I want him to do what makes him happy and feel alive. Live life, enjoy it and live where you want to live as long as you are happy. If he is happy, my heart will be happy and thats all I need. Home will always be here and there are plenty of ways for me to travel to where he is. I didn't realize what I was doing to my son by forcing my wants on him. I wasn't allowing him the opportunity to form his own beliefs, to live life and to be his own person. Your dad doesn't realize what he's doing either. Again, another parental fault that is really hard to recognize. Letting go and allowing our children to grow into their own person is SUPER hard. Don't blame your dad. Looking at ourselves, taking inventory and CHANGING is almost impossible unless we really desire the change. You can't change your dad and he can't change you so you gotta just love each other as is or end the relationship if it's that toxic. Perspective is a crazy thing. It can lift us up or drag us down. Sometimes if we just change our perspective, we can see the world in a whole new light and it becomes a more beautiful place to be and relationships get stronger. I believe in you and am here if you need anything.

My daughter told me that the school cancelled detention today to have a meeting about this with the principal, vice principal, etc. She said they never cancel detention. I think her history teacher's version of the story makes more sense. It must've been written again yesterday or today for that robo call to go out tonight to all of the parents. Totally a stress I do NOT need right now. My kiddo will be staying home. With the doors locked as we live right across the street from the damn school. UGH! jeezus, what the fuck next???? I mean seriously. This world is off the deep fucking end. Prayers up that its an asshole looking for stupid attention. They track them down, send them to juvi and that's the end of it. I heard on the local news tonight that another school in my city (an elementary school) had a child bring bullets to school. Unreal. Elementary school children are no older than 12 usually. :\ Another city in MA had to cancel school due to a shooting threat this week. I think it was just one school in that city, but still. Side note, upon some research, my daughter is of age to have a gun license... God bless parents with kids in this current state of affairs. Spread the word, change the collective conscious......

~Jazzy~ Forum Administrator User ID: 75017870 United States 05/23/2018 01:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am not internally circuited for a sales job. At my job we work as a "team", but we all receive different paychecks based upon individual commission. I've been working here for over a month and have already witnessed coworkers trying to shark my initial sale and make it their own. I've seen a coworker belittle another coworker just to make a sale, on more than one account.... Quoting: Master of Nothing This whole dog eat dog world is something I've wanted to escape from. Where people will stand on your shoulders to kick your teeth in, just to get ahead in "life". Backstabbers and 2 faced liars abound. I accepted this job to appease my families worries and concerns for my future, not for my own. I turn 30 this week and they've been using my age as a reason to " get my shit together" and, to essentially live a life that they would approve of. When my dad, (saying all this)...doesnt understand me at all. Trivial first world problems I know... but have mercy lord, I feel so fucking alone here. You have to be true to yourself first and foremost. And you can't let anyone live your life for you. Parents want the best for their children yes. But when a parent pushes their desires for your life above your own, it's not what's best for the child they're concerned about, but what's less worrying for themselves. All I ever wanted was for my children to be happy and healthy. The paths they chose may not have been what I would have chosen for them, but then, it wasn't my journey to walk. My only responsibility was to see to it that they had the strength, fortitude and courage to climb whatever mountain that stood in their way. Do you think your family would be pleased or happy to find out that you're living a lie just because of them? Much love.
