Karma is a bitch, the other day at work we were all talking about the fact everyone is ill. Half of the staff has some sort of flu, I gloated about being healthy and not having it. low and behold today I feel tragic, I haven't eaten a great deal and I feel like i'm on the border of being physically sick, as well as lacking any energy or strength. I couldn't even move earlier I felt so weak.
How do you feel?

No free flu vaccine for you next year then?................ Given that it's been useless...
Take care, and rest.

It can burn in the pits of hell.
I shall be doing plenty of that.
I think some of my actions have been misunderstood, like I did it because I wanted to change things in my favour, or try to damage the relation between two persons, or something like that. I'm not a saint, it's obvious, but I know being manipulative is not one of my defects. This doesn't mean that my actions don't have negative consequences of which I am ashamed and want learn from, but being tagged as manipulative for something that I didn't want it to happen, without being asked why I did certain things... I don't know to what extent it's fair. Anyway as I realise that, even though not willing it, apparently I've only brought problems to them, the best I can do is distance myself from them.
I remember that when I was teaching at high school I saw or heard about serious personal issues of some students, but last Friday, at work, I had to deal with a family's truly horrifying problem. Unfortunately I couldn't do anything because the person in charge of these issues did not take the phone and it's really so serious that I didn't want to write an email, not to leave anything written. I've been thinking about it all the weekend, and I won't stop until something's done (hopefully soon, as the police is aware of it). I've heard many cases like this on TV, but when that person comes to you, and you can't give an immediate solution to their demand because it takes some bureaucratic steps, it's very frustrating!!
I get the frustration with that sort of thing, it's a weird situation to be in where you want to help or do something but your held back by something, in your case the official rules. I wouldn't deviate from them though, as you could get in trouble also and then no one gets help. I know for me it was more of a moral dilemma, I had a guy coming in and buying £100s worth of poker vouchers to use online regularly, I calculated he had purchased from me alone something like £500 in a week or so. It was a major moral dilemma he clearly had a big problem with gambling so I wanted to refuse him sale, but then thinking with my head it wasn't my place to say, I risked him getting angry by refusing him and saying he has a problem without even knowing him and he'd only go somewhere else. In the end I did nothing and he stopped coming to buy them. Whatever it is for you, sounds quite bad if police are involved but things have a way of sorting themselves out and they'll get the help they need.
Yeah, the owners of pubs sometimes must feel the same if they see a person that clearly has a problem with alcohol. It’s sad not being able to help them, but you can’t do anything else, as what they need is a psychologist. You denying them what they want is useless, so you are right.
In my case, I was (kind of) the person they needed in that moment. I mean they were in the right place and talking to the right person (me, or my colleague), so I’m constantly wondering if I did everything I could do or perhaps I could have done more...Tomorrow I will make sure their case is taken very seriously though, because bureaucracy here is very slow (this is what worries me most) and this can’t wait.
I'm tired of being so 'soft', it's like giving permission to other people to laugh at you, or treat you like you were nothing, or talking to you only because they want something. I'm done with it. It's time I start showing my bitch side and why not... taking revenge for what they did when they least expect it. I want to be as bad as they were with me, or worse. Unlike time ago, this time I'm not ashamed of feeling this way and I will do it.
Edit: I'm lying to myself. I have never taken any revenge and I live pretty well just ignoring those people and let time do its job. The thing of being less 'soft' or sweet might be a good thing though.

God I understand you so much. Reminds me of my school days. I still think you should try it out (with bitch side) and see what it will result in. The truth is that most people don't deserve your sweetness because they mostly think about themselves. Keep this in mind. Your family is the only exception, I think we have no choice there because we love them :'D
If there is one thing I definitely learned in life then it's that truly no one cares. Sounds a bit IN YOUR FACE maybe but it's reality, no one cares about us, our imperfections, our feelings, our mental/physical health if we are doing well or not in life, if we are achieving our goals or not (with some exceptions ofcourse like our true loved ones/family) If they act like they care it is usually because it relates back to something in their own life.
What this did for me is simply stop caring about and for them as well. You don't even need to be a bitch for this, wish them the best, move on with your life and keep slaying everyday. ADIOS!
Keep spreading love even to the haters, actually they need it the most...

That brings me to one dilemma. On 22nd December our department will have pre-New Year party and they may invite me. The problem is that it's mostly middle aged women and I need to go to other city for that which costs money. My coworkers seem to like me (although with these you never can be sure what's on their mind) and i don't know how to reject their possible invitation to not offend them...
Mostly middle aged women? And a pre-new year party on january 22nd
don't you fit right in

Or... just tell the truth
no one really carrs, though I don't really understand every culture.It's pretty much the same for me, the majority of my co-workers are middle aged women. There is a couple of younger ones also. Our christmas 'party' is on Sunday, and there is a couple not going, really everyone else don't care. I doubt they'd be angry with you. Just say you have other plans if you're worried of annoying them, but really they'd just carry on regardless.
