They say that you can't pick you're family, and while I usually don't care for cliches or tend to agree with any sort of "grouping" of family for that matter, never has there been a more true statement. But this rant doesn't just include family, it shall be more board, specifically set off by my shit for brains sister.
Have you ever known someone who is so up their own ass they smell their own breath? Shes one of them. Not the only person I've ever known to exhibit this quality, but today shes the one pissing me off. Shes the kind of person that if you're in the car chatting about something going on in your life, she will almost alway interupt you about something going on in her life. Unless whatever you start talking about directly influences her. Then she probably won't interupt but the conversation topic morphs into a tyrant more about her and less about you.
I HATE THESE KINDS OF PEOPLE. How one gets their own head up their own butt that far to the extent where their farts are minty fresh is beyond me. But today's testament is sponsored by the letter J for jobs. My sister has hated her job for quite some time now. I've been telling her for quite some time that she needs to move on and find a job that she will be more satisfied and have more room for growth. Where she is now there will never be raises or promotions or rewards for her efforts only bitchy abuse from her self destructive co-workers and micromanagement from a boss that cannot and apparently will not control self destructive coworker.
I digress. So she finally applys for this new job, and finds out today shes getting the opportunity to write an exam for it. And proceeds to not only email me about it, and then text me about it twice. I myself am knee deep in midterms and assignment (that she of course has no idea about because that would mean she would have to listen to something about me and not about her) but yet she goes on and on about her job. Which don't get me wrong, I think is great, but at this time and in this space, one email is enough...I have shit to do. I have to worry about me.
So I don't respond to her email and she texts me the following
"Don't know if you got my email but I got invited to write an exam for the job!"
Annoyed because I'm waiting for a text from someone in one of my classes about the lab exam I have today I text her back (knowing that if I don't more texts will follow)
"I got it. Just busy. Congrats"
To which my moron of a sister responds
"THANKS! I'm super excited!!!!"
You're kidding me right? What part of "Busy. Congrats" screamed to you that I was that freaking excited for you? Where do you get off not even inquiring about why I'm so busy or thinking that I wanted that kind of message back.
How up your own behind do you need to blatantly ignore someone else in distress just because you're so happy about something that you've pressed on someone else multiple times that the first time they couldn't be bothered to respond to? HELLO?
Also keep in mind that this is the sister who owes me money from the summer. Who has a well paying job but just seems to forget to pay me back. And I would really like that money. Because SHE OWES IT TO ME.....
But no instead I get to get text messages about this new job (even though I've been telling her for years to move on) and about her kids and all this other crap that right now I cannot be bothered to care about.
How do you deal with people like that?
