Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

On paper it's customer support. In practice this is what I'm doing:
Content administration and correspondence regarding copyright infringement for three websites
Technicall Support and Billing management for one website
Translations for a variety of things, from Facebook profiles, through other people's correspondence to website content
Copywriting and other content creation for another website
Supervision and 'expertise' for newer, mildly competent support staff

When I started working a year ago, it was just the first line.

Write this down. Write down your original job description and pay rate too. Show them both to your boss and ask for a corresponding raise to accompany these increased responsibilities.

My Japanese homework is turning my life into a living hell. I have no dictionary to help translate and my textbooks are next to useless. Internet can't be relied upon, and this uber awesome dictionary my friend has I tried to get? Well, my Amazon account is fuxxored so that's no go. I really wanted to get work done today but I have done jack. So fucking angry.

I have no food left in my house, the supermarkets are closed, and I slept thru dinner today, because I pulled an all-nighter last night.

only thing I DO have are potatoes. I need to go fry them, but I have absolutely NOTHING to accompany them. I'm even out of fruit, ffs!

Amen Sombra. You know you've hit rock bottom when you're getting trounced at cricket by the English. :hulk:

By the way, you back in Brisbane yet?

I just happened to find out that most likely - well, the only reason I can think of, because ever since I can count money I've been keeping a close eye on my finances, well, whatever, most likely my lovely mom and her husband have meddled with MY name and THEIR money problems in the past when I was in no position to argue against it, resulting in a total ban of my person from buying anything - I mean, really anything - on credit.
Now, I deperately need a new computer, unless I want to fail half ob my classes because the thing I'm currently typing at is better suited for cooking rice than image editing - when it's not crashing every couple of minutes anyway.
I endured the situation for over a year now, knowing that during summer holidays I can work and save the money for a new pc. Then the aforemantioned mother of mine and her husband borrowed my saved money and didn't pay it back. And NOW thanks to their meddling I can forget ANY plan on getting a new computer. Meaning I'll fail half my classes, bacause I'm too busy working to hang around at college all day to do the assignments there, should by chance any of the computers installed there be not occupied for once. Not that this would help much, since I can't save stuff there.

Gotta love my life. Not wanting to sound unthankful, but there's gotta be a limit. I'm sick of sitting in class, understanding everything but being unable to do the assigment still :hulk: It's not like I'm asking for them to pay everything, I'm totally willing to work for what I want, but I'd damn well like to actually get the money I've been cleaning toilets the whole damn summer for *sigh*

Edit: Also, my mom's having chicken for dinner. I hate the smell of chicken. Makes me sick *ugh*

You don't need to like cricket Simeon, but you do need to celebrate a return to the natural order of things.

Now all the friends that you knew in school they used to be so cool, now they just bore you.

Natural order? Please, we've been spanking you pretty much constantly for the last hundred years. :hulk:
