So there’s this .. person .. who used to be in my life, but not anymore. Well, he still is, in a manner of speaking. He’s like .. at the sidelines. Someone I still talk to but don’t.
Brief history: The Someone supposedly has TWO companies to his name. HE is the CEO, the President, the Founder .. whatever you want to call it. It’s his company. Thus, there is no reason for him to seek employment elsewhere, unless for kicks. And he is self-absorbed. We are all hoping that he just doesn’t know he’s condescending and obnoxious, but we really think he is.
I assume that people who read this are familiar with the etiquette of questions regarding someone else’s salary.
The Someone: Hey.
The Mom: Hey. ‘Sup?
The Someone: Does The Dad still work at a call center? Do you have his number? I need to ask him something.
The Mom (to self): This sounds fishy, but I’ll bite. We’re all adults here.
(to The Someone): Sure. It’s xxxx-xxxxxxx.
And then I didn’t think anything of it. Prolly some uninteresting and BORING thing.
Few days later ..
The Mom: Oh hey. The Someone asked for your number. So weird. What was it about?
The Dad: Oh yeah. He asked if I was still in a call center and I said “Yes.”
The Dad: He asked how much a Team Leader makes because he’s been offered a position in some company.
The Dad: So I told him it’s between (hypothetical number) 18-30k, depending on which company it is and how much years of experience you have under your belt.
The Mom: Oh, ok.
The Dad: And then he texted me this:
The Someone: Is that so? Because I got an offer from this company that wants to pay me 110k. Thanks, man.
Of course, days after Liverpool won the Champions League semis, The Someone texted me this:
The Someone: Hey, Mark. Send my love to everyone. And take care on the flight back home. Man, my team lost last night. Haha.
The Someone: Oops! Sorry mis-text.
YEAH-FUCKIN’-RIGHT. Mis-text my ass. That is such a lame excuse. I used that move in college buddy, I SO do not believe you. And no one, NO ONE that I was friends in college with ever followed football. Not even the EPL, so I HIGHLY doubt, that a cunt like that followed the Champions League. I mean, is he just defecating on the sanctity of my sport?! Everyone that I know know that I am a Liverpool supporter, through and through. This is no mere coincidence my friends. This a pathetic set-up. One that I have witnessed far too many times, FROM THE SAME FUCKING PERSON.
And at this juncture, I would like to rant in a dialect that’s more appropriate.
Putangina. Ang yabang ng hayop! Bakit ka magtatanong ng ganoong klaseng tanong, diba?! Hello?! Wala lang?! Para lang malaman ng ibang tao na ganito at ganito ang binabayad sa iyo? Hello?! Wala kaming pakialam noh! Matagal na kaming walang pakialam kasi you lead a very sad and pathetic excuse for a life! Dati wala kaming sinasabi kasi naaawa lang kami sa iyo, thinking that you were the “victim” of that whole debacle pero hindi! Sinisiraan mo lang ang iyong sarili! Leche ka! Putangina ka! Magkaroon ka naman ng dignidad! Mayaman ka nga, hindi ka naman makabili ng decency! Alam mo ano? Dinuduraan ko ang iyong pera. Tangena. Ang yabang mo. Sana mamatay ka na mag-isa kasi wala namang lumabas sa iyong bibig kundi tungkol lang sa sarili mo. Pwede ba ha. Mahiya-hiya ka naman kasi kami nahihiya na para sa iyo. Get a fucking life, you fucking loser.
