Eff ‘Em Friday
Is it just me or did it seem like life crammed five days worth of bull into four days? Sure it makes for a difficult week, but you get a damn good eff at the end of it all. I know the crew here at Three Ways is bursting at the seams, so let’s get this started.
Seattle Washington
Eff this hangover. I swore I wasn’t drunk last night, but the grogginess and this grating headache say otherwise. I feel like I have a tiny gang of Mexican bandoliers giddily busting their six shooters in the air and dancing around in my skull right now. Hopefully by the time you read this, it will have dissipated or I will have called INS.
Eff Sallie Mae (again). I just paid you last week. And no, I don’t have more money for you right now. I didn’t have the money yesterday, what makes you think I’ll have the money now? Do you think I have an offshore bank account that I’m hiding from you? Do you think I know people that could give me mass amounts of money on a whim? If I did, don’t you think I would’ve pursued those avenues instead of asking for an ass raping a loan from you to pay for college? Get. Off. My. Back.
Eff my dad’s employers. 23 years and this is how you treat a “valued” employee? I want to go off, but hey on the bright side – you’ve given me even more reason to start my own company. No one is going to take anything away from me after working hard for almost a quarter of a century. No one. More on that to come.
Eff my boss. I’ve had to set you straight before when it came to your loose, ignorant lips. Then you had the audacity to step over the line because you think things are sweet? I should’ve gotten up from my desk and mushed you in your face. Instead I flipped it, made you extremely uncomfortable and watched with disdain and humor as you awkwardly tap danced in front of me. Dance boy dance. While it was funny to watch you apologize and try to correct your slip up, I’m sure I would’ve been a lot more satisfied if I just chopped you in your throat.
Eff this week. I’m definitely looking forward to the weekend. Who’s up?
Slim Jackson
Eff being sick for the 2nd or 3rd time this winter. It started as increased sleepiness, then progressed into stuffiness, then progressed to a cough, then progressed to overall crippling lameness. I’m pretty sure I have something between Bird Flu and SARS that more than likely won’t be gone for 3-4 days.
Eff my love for oreos. Nope, not those oreos. I mean the actual cookies. I kick the Sour Patch Kids addiction and pick up something new with more fat. Well, I guess this is better than being addicted to cheeseburgers and shaving years off my life with each bite.
Eff Tiger Woods for speaking today and stealing the shine from Eff Em Friday. Then again, I guess this would be a good day for him to speak since effing is what got him in this mess in the first place. #whenstrokesgowrong
Miss Jenkins
Eff immature and unprofessional people.
Eff people who crumble under pressure. Balancing multiple projects and life events is what real adults do. Get used to it, or go home.
Eff feeling like I’m back online and/or planning a week of events like this is undergrad. I have not felt this depth of exhaustion in a while. But I’m not worried. I’ll be passed out tomorrow after I consume numerous dranks. Sleep will be easy.
Damn that felt good. Is it the weekend yet? Eff. Well, it’s your turn folks. Tell us what’s on your minds.
Peace!
The Three Ways Crew

Eff me being so nice.
Now I’m asking, “To be or not to be?”
Eff me spending so much money yesterday.
And I’ve not purchase my filtered shower head and other things.
Eff me being on a more organic tip w/ everything this year.
This sh*ts expensive!
Eff me knowing it’s soooooooooo much more to eff but not putting it here.
*sigh*

G-Morning sunshine! Wakey-wakey! *beep*

Mmmkay.
Eff T-Mobile, Comcast, Sallie Mae and the oil man, unfortnately one (3) of ya’ll are not get paid this week! Enough is enough! Chuh.
Eff not being able to live off the grid on a beach somewhere far far far away.
Eff my addiction to cheeseburgers (yeah Slim, hush.) I cook and bring lunch, yet twice this week the cheesburger trumped brown rice.
Eff Danny Effing Ainge for trying to get rid of someone who actually loves playing for Boston, great team player who builds moral and who drops 3s like bad habits! Are you that in love with Tony Allen Danny? Well are yah?
Well the day is young, I’m sure I’ll have more later.

Eff the fact that I am up at 730 on a non work day looking for a job b/c the one I have doesn’t pay enough.
Eff the fact that I have been working on this non profit business for almost a year and I’m still at square one.
Eff the fact that I seriously believe I’ll never get effed again. I need to go dig up that one dude’s number, it wasn’t good but at least I’ll know everything is still working down there.
And where is Miss Jenkins, three ways crew? Eff that she needs to be here! I like reading her posts. Eff it, I’m done.

Eff being sick for over a week (get ready Slim).
Eff a cough that get’s worse when you laugh so you can’t even enjoy a good joke w/o sounding like you need to be quarantined.
Eff a job that gives you a promotion and then tells you if you want to pick up extra hours on a Sunday, you’ll have to take a paycut for those hours. What the Eff? #wddda
Eff needing the money enough that I’ll work on Sunday for those reduced hours.
Eff getting into My grad program and not having enough time to handle the details because of extra hours at work. (This should be good but I’m stressed)
Eff student loan sharks (Holla at me Seattle). If you eff up my financial aid for my master’s you’ll never see your money, what then?
Eff GA weather, I wanna get better, but last weekend it was snowing and iced over and this weekend, we’re supposed to have a high of 62.
Eff long-distance relationships and knowing I wouldn’t give a eff about any of this shit if I could get some quality time in w/ my man.
There’s a lot more to eff, but that feels good for now.

Eff 1 out of my 7 or so managers
I want to send a special Eff to one of my many managers! Out of the 7 managers I’ve worked with I have never work with such a horrible manager in my life. She puts a shame to female leadership around Corporate America with her cattiness and petty efforts to throw people under the bus as well as her lack of accountiablitiy.
Eff Tiger Woods for addressing the media now. Some of us could honestly careless with what you have to say at your 11am press conference. Oh yes the press conference is open to NO QUESTIONS and his statement is already open to the public…lol
Reply
Hasn’t been a bad week,
But I’ll off anyway b/c like Tiger, I can’t turn it down.
Eff my co-worker for being two years older than me and being married and today telling everyone that he is going to be a father. That puts too much pressure on me … now the old lady that sits in front of me is going to start giving me tips on how to knock wifey up. On Wed she handed me and article she cut out for me in the WSJ on how to get your finances together before you say I do. “What?! B1tch!”
Eff Subliminals. I feel like my supervisors want to tell me to stop horse playing around on the internet. Yes, I need to update my fantasy team every day. I’m like a child who isn’t pushed in the classroom. That leads me to my next point…
Eff My Scariness, why am I so scared of asking for a promotion. The worst they can say is no. What am I scared to show the people in my department I am better than this position? They already know I think I’m better.
Eff Moving. You always forget something. Why did I have to dry my big ass this morning with a dish rag?
Eff people telling me to get a haircut, I’m going to keep growing it until I get some Roscoe’s Chicken and waffles and or I have enough for an S-Curl (I’m bringing it back!)
Eff my landlady’s fluffy white dogs! Listen Sancho and Pebbles, no one is scared of you. Stop barking whenever someone comes into the house. I will step on you. And Pebbles stop walking over to people acting like you want someone to pet you than run away in fear.

You need to not pick up your option next year. Let’s be serious, you know you are not worth 10 Million. Damn sucka, you aint worth one million. Atleast it’s an expiring contract next year so we can move you for some parts. B/c if we get our wish, Bosh and Lebron aka LeBosh (shout out to Gun&Butta for that one, GENIUS) we wont haev room for much else. And that is money we could spend on Lee.

Eff my friends with their baby showers & bridal showers this weekend. I can’t afford the crap you’ve asked for so I will be buying you a cheaper gift. And best believe when I get to this point I’m inviting everyone I’ve ever purchased a gift for.
Eff that these stupid showers are making me feel bad about still being single. I know better but when you cram it all in one weekend, its messes with a girl’s self-esteem.
Oh yeah & Eff the people I work with who keep asking me why I’m single, cause I’m so pretty. If that was the only requirement you don’t think i would have taken care of this situation already?!!

Ok… I’m in on this “Eff ‘Em” Friday… Let’s see…
Eff being a massge therapist at a place where the owners don’t know sh*t about massage! I’ve told y’all give me a notice when you need something. I asked for a day off and y’all acted like I was asking for a muhfugging kidney. I work SIX days a week & told y’all I’d do two Hot Stone in a day (and nobody else does). And y’all tripping? Then w/ the Hot stone you aint give me the break I asked for between the two. Don’t ask for sh*t if you aren’t going to respect my muhfuggin request. I’m taking a week ofin July. Don’t say sh*t!
Eff my homeboy that I’ve liked as long as I’ve known him. Everytime you said you were interested you never followed through w/ sh*t. So I figure we’ll give it one last try & ALL you talk about is all the guys I dated instead of you. You act like I was eff’n these ninjas & YOU were on the bullsh*t. If that’s all I’m going to hear, we can just remain friends. Damn!!!
Eff my car!!! Heffa, I take and put a new engine in you & you got the nerve… the audacity to broke down AGAIN! I need a new engine again?! Eff that. Junk that sh*t out. I’ll take the bus!
Ohhhhh… That felt good. I’ll be back next Friday. I’m sure they’ll be more mess to eff.

Eff Dish Network. One of their workers guessed which line should be unplugged and guess who it was? I’ve been without internet and satellite for two days. Not to mention the internet connection is always slow. At least I didn’t have to get beligerent before they came and fixed the issues.
Eff it being to cold to dress cute. Step show festivities are this weekened and I may have to party hardy in a full length jacket. For the last four years we’ve been rocking shorts and tees. Darn you global warming.
Eff having to review four months of work and figure out what’s contest worthy. I don’t even rememeber writing half ths stuff. And I have to limit entrie to two per category. Do they know how much I write? At least it’s not the whole year. Here’s hoping I place in at least one writing category for the company’s awards. This is the first step to the Pulitzer.
Happy Weekend All!

Unfortunately, although it makes me feel smugly better than myself should I accomplish it, I sit right next to the candy dish we always have.

Just gotta say that I can feel ya on this completely, Seattle. For about a year now, my mom has been going through some bullish after being there for 20 years. And it all came down to one dayum person, her supervisor. She’s been harrassing her for taking FMLA (the dumb bish doesn’t know how unethical/plain wrong this is…dumbass), harrassing by forcing her to take a job that TWO optometrists said she wouldn’t be able to form (another dumbass move). Anyhow, she’s complained to everyone from her union rep to EEOP, with little to no results. It’s stressed her out something fierce which has subsequently made me upset of course because sheeit, that’s my mama, don’t eff with her. Anyhow, after all of that, she contacted to human resources in the corporate headquarters (in another state) and threatened to sue, giving them all the details of the harrassment. Anyhow, just a couple of days ago, she found out she has a new boss and her old one has been making mysterious trips down to the corporate headquarters. Yeah, we know what’s up.

It’s so frustrating the ways companies Eff people over. Makes me wary of linking my emotions w/ my work place. My friend’s dad was the chief sound engineer at a well known but much hated television station that will remain nameless for as long as I could remember. He lived at that job and was always called on to fly somewhere and work on a project last minute. He had a heart attack and while he was out on sick leave they “dissolved” his position. No notice. Bastards.
