You know what else today is?!?!?!?!?!
That's right! It's Fawk You Friday over at Boobies, Babies, & A Blog which I thought it would be fun (and therapeutic actually) to participate in today. I just recently started following her blog and find it greatly amusing - I definitely recommend checking it out. It's a good time....
So here's my Fawk You for Fawk You Friday:
I work for a private company in the field of drug addiction - but we get some of our funding from the state for those who are on welfare and can't afford to pay for their own treatment. So their treatment - (ie my services) - are paid for in full by the state.
I had a client come into my office just a few moments ago upset with me because of a treatment decision that had been made due to his inability to follow program guidelines. Guidelines of which he agreed to when signing his paperwork and entering into treatment. Do you know what he had the audacity to say to me? "You can't do this! I pay your salary, you HAVE to do what I say!"
HA HA!
Ahem.... Excuse me Mr. Jobless (but able to work & just don't want to) Welfare Recipient...? I think you've got that twisted. I'm the one who sits in this chair earning a salary and paying my taxes. I pay for YOUR treatment - therefore I pay my own salary - if you want to get all technical about it.
So FAWK YOU Mr. Abuse The System Man. Fawk You AND that expensive and nicer than mine car you just drove here in. You just said the wrongggggg thing buddy. You thought it was bad before? You just made it sooooo much worse....
:)

Ooh, eye candy!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday xxx
Hahaha...you have to love ( hate ) those morons that decide to let you know that they are paying your salary. Oh is that why I'm being paid in old tuna cans and shame? Now it all makes sense!
ReplyDelete@toesthattwinkle - I'm following you too - your blog is great! Thanks for checking out mine!!! I have to say the "twinkle" part drew me in. I'm easily distracted by shiny objects....
ReplyDelete@Chrissy - I thought perhaps we all could use a little eye candy to start out the weekend - Happy Friday to you as well! :)
@Lesley - these people just kill me... if I could say what I think to most of them I would've been out of a job a loooong time ago! But oh look! Fawk You Friday is the perfect outlet :) Thanks for reading!
Excuse me mr jobless-you are now getting escorted out of this establishment!

Mr jobless sounds a tad angry and entitled... I'm sure you get more than your share of that!
