And for the record you know I'm fond of you Mr. Menehune and your sensual intelligence.

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day
I understand where you are coming from Mr. Menehune but with all due respect we are supposed to live in more pono times where people are supposed to have rights. Why should indigenous peoples have to live like the people who took over their land? Where are their rights to be who they have always been? Why do they have to evolve into who we are to make us happy?
I'm no expert on Fijians, Tahitians or other Polynesians but don't many of them still live traditionally in their own land. Their numbers are still strong in their own land, yes or no?
And by Indian I'm assuming you don't mean from India? First People, Native Americans, (not sure which is the most right title) they have government programs and such and nation within a nation status, do they not deserve that?
As for ancient history I would like to think that humans have become a lot more compassionate, learned from the past and would like to stop making the same mistakes.

I'm sorry the Indians were messed with by... everyone.
I'm sorry the original Brits were messed with by invading armies.
I'm sorry the Romans messed with everybody.
I'm sorry the caveman living next to the other caveman got messed with.

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day
I'm so tired of the same old whine.
Okay here we go...
I'm sorry the Hawaiians were messed with by Americans.
I'm sorry the Fijians were by the British and Tahitians by French.

Just deal with it folks! Live your life the best you can, try and provide for your family (by working, not asking for handouts) and stop whining.

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day
You know what pissed me off this evening? A client called me at my home phone number, demanding me to fix his computer just a few minutes ago! I only give my cell phone number to clients I finished repairs for, as a good gesture for better service since I know where they live, but this guy must have looked up my last name (I don't even remember giving it to him - we did talk story a lot, so maybe it slipped my mind) and called.

I hate it when I get motion sickness - from watching a video.
This is why professionals get paid a lot.

And as much as I feel sorry for the family of the victims, I'm peeved at that guy this morning who crashed his car near the Hygenic Store in Kahalu`u, killing himself and his 9-month-old son. At 8:30 in the morning he was driving 80 to 100mph... in a 35mph zone.
Lost control, hit a power pole, sliced the car clean in half and the pieces were 75' apart from each other. DAMN.
If some idiot wants to commit suicide by speed, go ahead. But risking the life of a baby too?
Grrrrrrrrrrr...

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day
A result of my McD's drive thru experience today...
I'd really like to catch the idjits who rip off the Ronald McDonald House donation boxes outside the McDonald's drive thru windows. And, if I can't catch 'em, I'd like to be a fly on the wall when Karma comes along and whops 'em upside the head. What low lifes. I can't imagine McDs staff leaves money in the boxes overnight but I can see how the boxes might be overlooked. Still...

Adrian, LN and the others are right. Don't sweat the small stuff 'cuz, at your tender age, you ain't seen nuthin' yet!!! And maybe even archive this thread so that in 30-40 years, when you've experienced some of what life can hand you, you can look back on it and, hopefully, laugh!

There are rare circumstances where the five-letter word that begins with "b" and rhymes with "twitch" applies. You may have just described one, Blue.

If I was so pissed off at that job, I wouldn't be posting about it - I'd quit already. This offers me a way to vent and possibly prevent me from going postal on my coworkers or even on the customers.
Plus, some of those posts aren't even about the walmart job.
Today's pet peeve:
I hate it when they fill up a cup half way with ice and fills the rest with the drink.
