I hate our health care system.

Then you're biased. Try living without money and ask yourself the same question. This whole thread is invalidated now.

IMMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT CLOUD STRIKE IS ONE OF THE BEST HEROES IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They aren't mean, they just don't care because they're all anonymous. I'm sure they act quite differently in real life. I've had a few friends commit suicide and others that have tried. It's not a fun situation and the people that think it's funny are in for a shock when it happens to them. It's all fun and games to tell someone to be an-hero, but when it really comes to it, people change their tune quite quickly. It's especially sad when the person is a friend online and you have no way of contacting them or their family. Anyway, my rant is over. I'll figure something out, I always do. Edit: Triple post ftw

Yes, he did me a favor, I'm not denying that. But, I'm also underpaid by far more than the loan is worth. Not sure what the loans are like where you live, but my deferral time ran out, since I've been out of school for 2 years. I think I can claim hardship or some other crap, but it increases the interest rate.

I donated money for the new server, but that was after the goal was already reached. A certain gangster asked me, jokingly, to pay for his admin. Since I had donated money and the server was already paid for, I asked Haggard to put the money towards his admin as a favor. Would you rather me have asked for a refund? I'm not that kind of person

Jiggly tits.

When did I say I wanted pity? Are you blind or just ignorant? It's thanks to people like you that made me realize how good I have it. Who needs alcohol when I can read your posts and get elated that I'm truly better off than you. Sounds to me like you're just bitter, at what or whom? I do not know. Maybe you should take a look in the mirror and think about your life instead of wasting your time dissecting someone else's who couldn't give two rats asses back. You must be pretty horrible attorney if your income is 0, unless that's all a lie. Maryland isn't a Right-to-Work state, and that only applies to unions, which has absolutely no bearing on this. Wrongful termination will be lost 99% of the time. My boss can give me an impossible task and fire me for not finishing it. I've yet to see anyone actually win a wrongful termination case that didn't have other incidents behind it. All a boss has to do is say the person was terminated due to performance. How is the employee going to argue that? Nice try, but your argument, once again, fails. Nice contradiction there, chief. If I refuse to work, he can fire me, but then I can sue for wrongful termination? Right. My boss just fired someone because 'He was not in it for the long run and was looking for other jobs.' But is he going to file for wrongful termination? No, because it's a waste of time and money. The reason I'm with the company is because it's growing and growing fast. But, I've come to realize that my boss just doesn't want to pay employees what they are worth. You seem to be making your concern over and over again by continuously replying and refuting my claims. As I said before, I never wanted sympathy, I simply wanted a way to vent my frustration. You try and act all high and mighty and troll me in hopes of proving your SG.Hon worthy. I'm sorry you think that working for free is stupid. Tell that to all of the community service groups, charity groups, and family members that do it their entire lives. You've obviously grew up with a silver spoon in your mouth if you never helped provide for your family. Not all of us are rich e-lawyers. No comment on this. Congrats on the non-sequitor. I have a BS in Computer Science and a MS in Interactive Entertainment. You sure seem to be propping yourself up on a high horse there, mister. Yes, and those professionals also earn far, far more than what I do. There's a reason why they pay a premium for their education, but I guess you haven't figured that part out yet. Uhm, ok? Nice try, keep backpedaling. Politely? How is any of what you said polite? "Sand in my vag" and all that. You, sir, are a walking, talking contradiction. Give up. At least I tried to give up and failed. I learned from that, maybe you should, too.

What a horrible hair cut. Who does that shit anymore?

Sorry, about your luck. Working 80 hours a week is not experience, it's disrespecting and abusing an employee. What I do in those hours can be done in normal work days, but he just wants everything rushed. I'm always the one he goes to if a server dies, because I always say 'Yes'. He knows I have no other plans, so if I tell him 'No', he'll take offense. I'd confront him about making me work overtime, as it's stated in the contract that I'd work from 8-5 and sometimes 6 (currently working 7am to 8pm more or less), but there's not much I can do when he holds my loan over my head he's paid off. Once that yearly contract is up, all bets are off and I'm demanding a hell of a lot more or leaving. Wrong. It was a separate contract I signed after getting hired. But way to make assumptions. Also, employers can fire any employee for any reason, it's usually stipulated in a contract, so I don't know where you get that idea from. I am trying to, but thanks again for making assumptions. You're quickly making yourself out to be a complete tool that tries to know a lot but in reality knows very little. Oh, so you must know that every job I have ever worked at, the paycheck went straight to my dad to help cover bills. You must also know that I worked for my dad for a year for free. So, you must also know that had no savings or income to pay for school. Jesus christ, man, what crawled up your cock and died today? Cool story, bro. I live outside of DC. So, instead of offering any sort of insightful criticism or comment, you result to throwing out insults. Way to be a man. It must make you real proud to know that you've never done anything wrong or anything that you've regretted in your life. I'm sure there are no skeletons in your closet, Mr. Perfect.

Anyone that voted for 'Longer life less money' is a liar.

See you next Tuesday.

That's something I'm thinking about, but I have other expenses that I can cut out to save more. I find SG's entertainment worth it.

I came here to rant, not look for pity, but thank you for the kind words. I can say the whole 'You don't know what it was like, man,' but that's not the point of the thread. I feel I was mistreated and mislead. And nice one on wishing death to someone, and yet you lecture me on morality. Pot, meet kettle. My family, fiance, and pet are still 1700 miles away. Myself nor my family had the funds to move be back home. We spent all we had on this one shot and were mislead by the game studio. After the incident, I found out that the position is basically, "Take a bunch of resumes, find the best candidate and hire them for 6 weeks." None of that was known to me when I was offered the position, had I known that I would have rejected the offer. I'm not thankful for the job I have now. My boss has me in a contract until March 2010. He helped pay off a student loan but made me sign a contract for a year. Since then, I've been working about 80+ hours a week, plus weekends, and make just over $30,000/year. Now, my boss knows about the medical bill (not the circumstances behind it) and offered to help pay it off as part of my 'bonus', but I don't want to go that route as I feel there will be more strings attached. I can move back home and get paid at least 1.5x as much as I make here and work a normal work week. I suppose I'm more upset about all of this financial shit hitting me all at once. 1. Student loans 2. Rent increase 3. Utilities increase 4. Other student loans 5. Medical bills. 6. Dad had heart surgery and nearly went bankrupt a few years ago 7. Dad just had eye surgery 8. Dad isn't making much money anymore. 9. Mom got a pay cut and works less hours now. I make under $1900 a month and need to make another $1000 just to break even. Sure, my boss is willing to help out, but it's ruining my relationship with my fiance and family, as well as my personal life. He knows I have no one up here aside from myself, so he uses that to his advantage and overworks me. I can't do shit about it because if I leave, I have to pay back the loan. tl;dr: QQ

The ER visit, sure, but the 3 day stay in the hospital after should be covered. I couldn't care less about the ER bill, that's a few hundred at most. The bill is for being forced to stay there for 72 hours. I'm not going to debate what I did or why I did it. Edit: Actually, I will, so you don't think I'm crazier than I already am. I had landed my dream job at a game studio. I was on cloud nine. I moved away from my family, fiance, and pet for this job. 6 weeks later I was let go because 'I wasn't performing like a rockstar'. This was news to me since I had daily meetings with my boss to make sure I was on track and doing what was needed to be done. He said I was doing great and that things were fine, so this came as quite a shock to me. I went to college for 5 years, graduate school for another 2, was jobless for 8 months until I landed this. Also, since I was feeling so great, I was taking myself off my anti-depression drugs (not a great idea). I just needed to vent. I am so furious about this whole situation. Also, I didn't take nearly enough drugs to kill myself. Realistically, I just wanted to pass the fuck out and not have to deal with the shit for the rest of the day.

What an absolute fantastic way to spend a lunch break, on the phone with the hospital and insurance companies trying to find out why the fuck they are denying my claim. I was in the hospital last year and the bill is just over $5,000. I had 2 insurance companies at the time (individual plan and an employer plan). Both are denying it because it falls under 'mental health' coverage. I was in the ER + 3 day stay for drug overdose (attempted suicide ftl). Regardless of WHY I was in the hospital, they should cover it. This is utter bullshit and I absolutely refuse to pay this bill off in my life time. Now, instead of making myself a lunch I have to drive through McDonalds on the way back to work because I'm out of time. Fuck this shit. Fuck insurance companies. Fuck the hypocrisy of the politicians and medical professionals. Yeah, I got myself into this shit, but one would think that insurance would INSURE an individual. I'm going to be raging so fucking hard when I get off work tonight. * TheVirus looks for another bottle of Vodka

That's not her. It's well known to be a shop. I should know, I can tell by the pixels.

It's gone.

The problem is if the T in question was near a CT. If the CTs order us to go on top of the big cage and I decide to detonate my bomb for the lulz and it fails, a CT should not be allowed to kill me. The CTs would need to witness the rush and failure for it to be a fair kill. This is how I see it.
