I even got on my company's top five utilization list for the past couple weeks running. It actually makes me sad :(

So I come home the other day at about 10:30PM after a fun short 10 hour work day, tired and hungry as hell. Step into my house (I still live with parents) and my mom asks me to take my brother on a trip, fix the toilet, fix our phone (vonage) and my sister asks me to fix her laptop. This is within 15 seconds of stepping into the house. I just stared at them, went to my room and shut the damn door. My mom comes in and asks me what my problem is. I flip and tell her that I just freaking came home and I'm hungry as hell and I'm tired as hell and I just want an hour to myself before people bitch at me.

Damn women nag way too much. JUST GIVE ME 10 FREAKING MINUTES TO RELAX WHEN I'M AT HOME. Good thing i'm moving out soon :)
good. you moving out is doing everyone a favor.

oh... and as far as your job: welcome to the real world. :D

some women definitely have the gift of nag. those that don't discover it once presented with a big fat diamond ring. ;)

Welcome to hell. It took me about a year for my wife to understand that when I come home, NEVER TELL ME TO DO CHORES. I used to get pissed at her and she couldn't understand.

It was even worse thoguh. She used to Ask, I'd say no, then why, then I'd tell her why. Then she'd ask again. There were times I was ready to kill her.

Oh, I always love the "why you in a bad mood?" after she starts listing off chores.

Heh that was the plan. Or at least Hoboken. Honestly, my first thought was just to get the hell out of my house and get my own place. Second thought was cuttin down on the damn commute. It's not awesome money but it's def enough to get a place with my friends.

And mosh, I'm not complaining about my job at all. I like my job, which is why I don't mind pulling 60 hour weeks every week. I'm just not acclimated to the fact that I actually come home now when everybody's awake and everybody wants SOMETHING from me as if I did absolutely nothing. Now I remember why I never came home before 1pm when I was in college. This is why I'm not having a family for a long damn time. Well... that and I have no game. But that's a story for another thread.
