Beauty Does Not Come in a Waxy Tube

Dear Entrepreneur Media, I followed you on LinkedIn because I am an Entrepreneur and I thought you might post some helpful info aimed at those who own their own business. I did not realize that the women you are writing about are not at all like me, but belong in a 1950's beauty pageant, or worse, in a secretarial pool doing the typing for the men who are too busy doing the "real" work.

Dear Windows,

You lie.

I used to trust you. I used to think I could let you come in and fix the things that you failed to get right the first (or second or third of five hundred and seventy sixth, etc.) time. But while you’re supposedly fixing things, you break other things. Little things, like, oh, my ability to boot my machine and do my work that, does trivial things like puts food on my table.  So I tell you not to fix things. Ever. Just leave them alone. I’ll make the decision on whether things need to be fixed or not. Now, I’m OK if you bring me the tools I need to fix things, SHOULD I DECIDE TO DO SO. Just put them over *points* there. See, I’m busy right now. Yes. Working. In fact, I’m in the middle of something rather important, to myself AND my clients. You know, those people that pay me for my work, that I do with my computer, you know, when it’s all running like it should be. 

OK so see my instructions to you? Are we clear? You’ll download the update files and you will LET ME CHOOSE whether or not to install them. Got it? Yes, I see that you do. Good.

letMeChoose

 

OK Windows? I’m done working with you now. I’m tired and I’m going to go to bed. I think I’ll give you a rest too and shut you down till morning. What? 

Excuse me… WHAT?!?

You say if I shut you down you will install the updates. I’m sorry did you say *WILL*??? You just told me I CAN CHOOSE whether to install them or not.

The Night’s Amusement: Craigslist

THE AD:

Need talented web designer that is excellant photographer too. $20-hr. Work from home. Send resumes and links of past web design.

EMAILS:

ME:
You’ll get what you pay for. $20 an hour is an insult to a professional web designer OR a professional photographer and you want to pay that to someone who is BOTH??

If you want to pay a professional to do a professional job, let me know.

HIM:
Who do you thinki you are insulting us and than said get in touch with you? your work is probably worse than $20-hr. as you probably one of those awful opionnated Rush Limbaugh types who is fat, ugly and obese woman, like harpon a fat chick has your ugly face on it……….your some ugly woman who has no friends and been married 3 times………….your being spammed……………get a life

::::::::::::[uh yeah… now it’s *on*]

ME:
> Who do you thinki you are insulting us and than said get in touch with you? your work
An actual web designer. Also one that can make an advertisement that is
spelled correctly. And “then” is how that should be spelled above.

> is probably worse than $20-hr. as you probably one of those awful opionnated Rush
And Rush Limbaugh has what exactly to do with Web Design?

> Limbaugh types who is fat, ugly and obese woman, like harpon a fat chick has your ugly
PERSONAL insults. Gee what a surprise. And looks have what exactly to do with Web Design?
Did you mean “harpoon”? That’s a spear… long… thin…

> face on it……….your some ugly woman who has no friends and been married 3 times………….your being spammed……………get a life
That would be unwise. Oh and “you’re” is how that should be spelled.

Well, I see the level of “professionalism” a designer would be dealing with
