So I decide to throw some garbage (note that it's about 2 kilometers there) and head to the employment center, because I haven't heard ANYTHING from my work consult since... October. I go there and meet with a woman (I dunno her name - she didn't introduce herself... Go figure.) I ask about my work consult and I'm told "she got different missions after new year" (yeah... That's the exact quote, mind you). Me: ...Okay. No one told me about that. She: Yeah well, let's see then. (So far, I have no problem with her). We go into a small room and I get a couple of papers I came for as well. Note that the papers I need is only given to you if you got some form of disability (e.g Asperger's or Autism). She: Did you mean those papers? Me: Yeah. I get them because I have Asperger's. It should say so in my papers, too. Spoiler warning: she didn't listen at that point. At all. So I proceed to talk with her and I'm told I got a new work consult. By the way, no one informed me of this, like I said earlier. ...Whatever. I shrug it off and she begins writing away at the computer about various things. She: I notice here that you have librarian as something you want to work with. Me: Actually, it's because I enjoy reading and I just said something from the top of my head to my [first] work consult (this is six YEARS ago). She: Yeah but librarian is a very hard job to get because it needs a special study. Me: I know. Like I said, it's just something I said from the top of my head. ...Again, she didn't listen. Sigh. At this point, I start getting a headache but ignore it. She: What can you think about working with? Me: Frankly, I have two criteria: if it's legal and they want me, I'm in. ...At this point (and pardon the EXTREME AMOUNT OF SWEARING FROM THIS POINT ON - note that I mean no offense against women in general, just against HER), that motherfucking daughter of a whorish cunt flat-fucking-out called me a motherfucking retarded asshole who didn't know what the fuck he was talking about and basically flat-fucking-out told me I was a fucking idiot to the point that I wanted to stand the fuck up and yell at her at the top of my MOTHERFUCKING LUNGS. SOME-FUCKING-HOW I managed to keep myself calm enough NOT to do that (note that I normally have a short temper) and proceeded with the conversation, which was over after a short bit longer. The first thing I said when I got out (out loud, to myself): I HAVE NEVER MET SUCH A GOD DAMN IDIOTIC PERSON IN MY ENTIRE GOD DAMN LIFE BEFORE.
End vent. Urgh... Again, sorry for the copious amount of swearing. Result: I have a headache size eastern Texas. Sigh...

Dude, if you need to vent and calm down, there are many people who get the same problem as you on this site notalwaysworking.com/. Now then let me talk about a small thing (trust me, it is kinda small). So I finally got my other computer working again (had to install WIN 7 again on it), afterwards I had to find multiple drivers so the online capabilities of my comp could work, this process took at least 2 days from what I remember, especally painfull with the fact that some of the Drivers (which were supposed to work with the device it was made for) did not install when I asked the comp to install the driver into the device, so it took a while to figure out that the damn thing needs to put the drivers in the Drivers folder in order to work... uh, why? I have the drivers, why do they need to be in that specific folder, furthermore, shouldn't the drivers for the device be ON the computer already? Even if I reset it to factory settings, it should still have the same drivers, so why only the network drivers? it just confuses me... Also, this week I had to take 5 Finals, so I have had headaches as large as Great Falls, so had not much of a good week so far, but on the plus side, I got a couple of Pokemon EX's in the past 2 days, so that's good...

So, as you might have noticed, I'm not too active as of late. There's a 90% chance that's cause of my big brother (other reasons being me starting to play MapleStory again as well as my apprenticeship).
What's wrong with him? Lesse...
1) Cannot be wrong. Ever. I'm not making that up. He's wrong? LOLNOPE HE'S TOTALLY NOT WRONG.
2) Refuses to listen to ANYONE about ANYTHING. Seriously, he's paranoid as fucking sin (and that's not an exaggeration: more on that shortly).
3) Oh, you want me to join you in this game? Eh, don't wanna because [his best friend] won't join it and as such, it must totally be shitty. His best friend recommends it? BEST GAME EVER! Oh, this game looks fun? Yeah, I don't feel like testing it out. You test it out for me. *He watches me play for literally 30 seconds to 3 minutes, tops.* Him: Meh. Looks boring. Thanks anyway. (At this point, I could have played the game for about an HOUR already). ...I'm not making that up. It's irritating. Very.
Now, back to point #2.
He began watching Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V (finally...) and watched episode one. For those of you who haven't seen it (and don't wanna see spoilers), stop reading until it says "KDONE" in all caps. ANYWAY. At one scene, Yuuya (the main character) is watching his pendant swinging back and forth. Which is TOTALLY hypnosis. And my big brother is fucking paranoid as sin when it comes to that. How paranoid are we talking? He sees something swinging back and forth (in this case, the pendant) or a spiral, he ALWAYS looks away. That's not a joke. He always will. I was fed up with this so this convo happened:
KDONE
Me: It's not hypnosis and it's not dangerous. Him: You don't know anything about that. Me: ..............I'm gonna watch by myself.
Seriously. That's not ONLY cruel as hell to say (as I KNOW it's not hypnosis - it doesn't work that easily), he ALSO pretends NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENED a short bit later.
I was watching episode two of Arc-V and he comes in to my room. This convo happens (by the way, I'm bitter all the time when talking):
Him: Is it just me or is it warm up here again? Me: Yes. Him: Is something wrong. Me: No. Him: Something I did? Me: ..............No.
Needless to say, this shit gets on my nerves. He's been like that for as long as I can remember. It gets VERY old VERY fast.
If his best friend had told him it's fine and it's not hypnosis, you might wonder? He'd STILL not give a flying shit.
So yes. I'm extremely bitter towards him. More than normal, I might add.

Yep. It's official. The fucking employment center in Sweden is a fucking joke. Seriously.
As some of you know (I haven't attempted keeping this a secret, I might add), I've had apprenticeship for the last four and a half months. Today is my last day.
Mid April, I get a phone call about the employment center recieving something called an "order" - basically they're looking for a person who wants a job. Obviously, I fit in on that description. I started in mid April for 2½ weeks (2 days off due to being holidays). I came back for another month. Half way through the month (this is in June), I'm minding my own business and get a phone call about my apprenticeship. "Yeah so I spoke to your boss and shit and he said we should prolong it for another two months. Oh and we didn't discuss it with you first. Have fun!" ...Okay. Thanks, fuckwats. That means my entire July and August is gone (luckily, I had nothing planned). Yesterday, I called. No answer. ...Big fucking surprise there. They call this morning. I explain that it's my final.fucking.day here. And I have no clue what the fuck will happen in the fucking future. "Oh. Well, I'll call you later in the day! Have fun!" ...I wait four.fucking.hours. No phone call. (Note: my apprenticeship starts at 10:00 AM and ends at 3:00 PM, so I spent most of my final day WAITING FOR THAT GOD DAMN PHONE CALL. For those who prefer military time: 10:00 until 15:00). Not ten minutes ago, my phone calls. It's from the employment center (note that I've had one employment councelor in the past that was actually GOOD and one I have now which is a joke. This is a third person who's involved in more... Specific cases (e.g if you have autism or similar).)
He asked how I think about the future. "Well, it's best if I get a job," I replied (which - for obvious reasons - it IS). The reply I got... Was NOT something I wanted to hear. All of a sudden, I'm told that there's NO guarantee to me getting a job - despite them telling me WHEN I FIRST CAME HERE I was guaranteed a job once my apprenticeship ended (which they've done NOTHING but extend to get more free job done). I told him that I've been there four and a half months. During the last two, I have heard NOTHING from them. At all. Despite them promising to keep in touch. So I told him - and I quote - "it makes you wonder how much [you] cares". (Note: in Swedish, we have "ni" for plural "You" and "du" for singular "You". I used the former, thus the [you]).
So what happens now? I'll stay home over the weekend and I'll talk to him on Monday. I lied (I'll confess at once) and said I needed time to think about it. In reality, I don't need to think about it - I don't mind staying here, but for fuck sake, if they can't make up their fucking minds after four and a half fucking months, WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING? Also, this: "I've visited you a couple of times but I realize it's been less the last two months!" ...He's visited me TWICE in four and a half months. That's not a joke. That's the honest to God truth. I'd have no trouble doing a lie detector test - in court - under oath - that he's visited me twice. In four and a half months. His excuse? "This usually happens during summer and stuff". Oh and my boss is never in. I spend more time with his mother (who's in charge of economy) than with him. She knows BETTER THAN HE DOES that I'm diligent at my job, but as she's not hired full time, she can't really vouch for me. So that's a fucking joke, too. ...Don't expect me in a very good mood today. ...Fucking piece of joke...

Damn, I feel bad for you Dark, I'm 13 so I don't know a lot but I agree that right there is bullshit. I also agree with the comic, but I'm changing it to this, "Sometimes, I wonder if we live on a planet or a joke." This world is truly fucked up.

You know what I hate? Idiots. You know what I hate even more? Hypocrites (note: a person who says they hate something then proceed to do so anyway - e.g hates FPS games but plays nothing but Counter Strike). You know what I hate MORE than BOTH OF THEM COMBINED? People who blames you for their own faults.
I was at a meeting earlier (about my apprenticeship that ended last Friday). I'm told - flat out - it's my fault I can't get hired. Why? "Because I don't do enough to be worth hiring". That's not a joke, mind you. What my job entails: Adding stuff to a website, as well as creating a website FROM SCRATCH (which, I might add, I had never done before!). The latter was done months ago. So, I add stuff to our website. As in, stuff we have in our store. I mean, what else CAN I add? Oh. Apparently, EVERYTHING FROM ANOTHER WEBSITE. This is an actual transcript between me and my boss (several times): BOSS: How's it going? Me: Good, I've just added [products]. BOSS: Yeah I want you to add some stuff that we don't have in store, so that people will know that we'll take them in. Me (thinking): ...What? Uh, okay... Me: ...Alright... What kind of stuff? BOSS: Look around at [store we shop from]! Me: ...Okay... ...And then he leaves. Leaving me in the dark (pun on my name not intended). What exactly should I have added? Computers? Computer-related items (e.g graphic cards)? Games? Gaming consoles? I have no idea what he wants added! HE'S THE GOD DAMN BOSS! HE HAS TO GOD DAMN TELL ME WHAT STUFF HE WANTS IN THE STORE! Nor do I know what price I should put on them. I mean, I can't take home 20 computers (for example) just for him to say "yeah I don't want us to have them". Like, seriously. That's COMMON SENSE. I - obviously - can't put the same price on them as we buy for, as we'd go +/- zero. So, what, should I just add the tax (25%) or should I add the tax ALONG with some other price? Hell if I know! He's never told me!
Oh and I should mention this: As I said earlier, we have two websites. I want to add - to the website I created - a link TO OUR STORE. That's OBVIOUS I would want to! But I'm not allowed to. Why? "Because it links to another site." ...Can someone explain that reasoning? No, really, CAN YOU?
