Please pray for my dad...his back is causing him trouble again

A week ago, my Dad was supposed to head up to Fort McMurray for work (hes doing sheet metal since there is no work in the oilpatch).I had learned a few days ago, he wasn't able to since his back started giving him problems again.His back has been on and off since he fell down a hole while on a rig site 10 years ago.The problem is in his lower back.I am praying for his recovery and hoping the physiotherapy helps.Hes on painkillers and this weekend he was barely even able to walk.They were supposed to come down to Red Deer to see me this weekend but couldn't because of my dad's back

Honest to FN Christ!!

What a suprise!My biological mother had the opportunity to see me for the first time in 21 years or so but passed it off so they can all go see some old friends in Saskatchewan.I even offered to pay the difference in gas, but they still declined!Honest ot FN Christ....I guess friends you just havent seen in a few months or a year or so, are more important and take priority over your own damn kid you haven't seen in 21 years!!

If it's ok to fly jetliners into office towers then........

I work as a courtesy clerk at a local store here in Central Alberta.Things have been going well until..........

I had to retrieve an order from a till after 2 ladies' debit card had declined.They left, and I put their cart by the customer service desk with the anticipation that they would come back for it once they get their money situation straightened out.I told the person at the desk when I put it there that they customers were going to come back later and pay for their declined order

Later on, I passed the customer service desk, and the cart was gone.I thought from then on that they came and paid for it or that the items were put in my putaway bins.

I was then approached by a supervisor later on and asked about the cart of items.I told them what I knew as of so far.I was then later asked by the department manager.I stated truthfully to both of them what I knew.

Apparently they DID return for their items, but they grabbed them, and left WITHOUT PAYING for them.

I gave a description of the two ladies as follows to the department manager.They seem to be mother and daughter, but here goes the description.....

the mother

about five foot four
wearing a bright coloured hijab with flowers
tan skinned (arab)


The daughter.

about five foot two
wearing the same colour and type of hijab
tan skinned (arab)


I would have thought that Islam forbade theft, but then again, .....

If it's ok to fly commercial jetliners into New York office towers, then it's ok to steal a cart of items from a grocery store.

A real Whiner here.....

Many in the older generations refer to my generation as "Generation WYne and say we are all a bunch of crybabies who think we are entitled to our entitlements.They also say we are snobby and rude................I DONT BLAME THEM!!!!!!!
Even if I keep getting the good grades I am in college, I would still like to keep my job as a courtesy clerk and work evenings at the store whilst working at a small law office during the day.I like work where I get exercise and where I actually have lots in common with the people I work with.I also prefer to work on my own.
It really irks me sometimes when everyone in my age group is p***d on because of some whiners that wreck it for the rest of us.I hold nothing against those who do look down upon those my age...in fact, I don't blame them at all.As someone who went to school and grew up with them, I could tell you this..you are right to look down upon Generation Yne.I don't consider myself to be a part of their grouping in a sense that I was always on the outside and never did fit in any of their little social cliques.I had worked since the age of 12, while they all got everything handed to them.I was bullied and ridiculed.I never did fit in.They always thought they were better than me.As a young kid, I always was wanting in..I was on the outside looking in.......Now, I no longer feel that way.....I am NOW on the outside looking AWAY.I'd rather jump head first into the Red Deer River than conform to their snobby ways and attitudes.I am proud to be an outcast from that grouping....at least I don't have to bear the burden of guilt for their failings.Ill bet those who whine and sue their college because they can't find work without anyone holding their hands, are also the same ones who bullied people like me.
