I'm here to serve but not to be served.
While I'm totally comfortable offering assistance to people, I get agitated by their attitudes. If you see that I'm busily fixing a computer problem and there is another staff person sitting 10 feet from you, why do you try to approach me with the annoyed tone of "Excuse me, Miss. Miiiiissss?" Seriously I thought you were talking to the staff person who was facing you, with nothing to do, at the front desk. Because why would you be talking to my back/ass as I'm bent over fixing a computer?? When I do turn around to see what's going on, please don't be rude. Demanding to know how the copier works isn't going to make me do it for you. Similarly, when I ask you to sign in on the copier sheet, a simple "Oh yeah, I already did that." will suffice. The snotty version of "I did it already!" will make me remember you and avoid helping you the next time you are here. Why do people carry this rude attitude when I'm trying to be helpful and pleasant? Are we all on high alert, the red level of defensiveness??? |

whadyaknow,yo?
wooo-hooo tattooO! i've been wanting a quote for awhile now, and i'm either going to put it on my left side of my left breast (only see-able nude) or to the right of where my elbow bends, so it'd be quite visable. these are my ideas for quotes, and i'm just wondering what people in general think, if one strikes them as especially poetic, meanginful or true. thanks :) "the way is not in the sky, the way is in the heart" "life is suffering" "beauty is not caused. it is" "always the beautiful answer who asks a more beautiful question" "everywhere tints childrening" "forever is composed of nows" "the earth laughs in flowers"

Today I really feel like I could do something stupid or harsh. Something dangerous or extreme. I am so miserable and alone, I'd like to cry to feel better but I just can't. All I want is to receive a phone call from someone who wants to know how I'm doing and really carin about me. A hug. Some love, and friendship, and affection. Do I ask for too much? Do I really deserve it? Please, help... |

Boston Zine Fair
Hi everyone! If anyone lives in the Mass area, Papercut is putting on the Boston Zine Fair Sept 20-21! I'm so excited, as its my first ever. Is anyone going, or better yet, tabling? I want to get a table, but I'm worried because its my first time and I'll know close to no one. I thought it would be cool if someone from the North Mass area was interested, and in the same situation I am, we could go halves on the table and have someone there to talk to and goof around with. If anyone is interested, let me know. The deadline to sign up isn't til September, so we have time. Oh! And! If someone wants to send me some zines or zine-wares, I can put them out with my stuff at the fair, to sell through my store/distro. Anything left over can either be sent back to you or put up in the distro. Let me know. Happy creating! [btw, crossposted a bit. sorry] |
