Cars and stupid rules SUCK

My car is a bitch.. I'm finally fed up with it. It's going in the paper this weekend in an attempt to sell it. I looked up on kellybluebook.com and found out that it's work $8000 still.. so I'm gonna see if I get any calls this weekend. Shit started going wrong with it a few days ago, like I'd predicted, and it ends up there's $1000 worth of shit wrong with it.. various belts, fuel filters, and other random maintenance stuff, plus the stuff I knew about and why it had to be TOWED in to the VW dealership. asasdflkjasdklf. If I sell it for that much, that'll pay off the remaining loan on it plus $1000-ish. So, hopefully that'll work for me. I wouldn't count on it tho, the way my luck is going.

Now the stupid rules part. Freakin' HR people told me that since my year at TCH hasn't ALL been post degree I can't have the QP title I need to apply for hte case manager/family counselor job. And, NONE of my diabetes work counts towards the 2 years exp post bachelors exp either, b/c it's not with mental health. BULL SHIT. So, I've complained to 2 of my supervisors, and sent an email off to HR asking if I could get some sort of letter of proof of what type of work I did in clinics for diabetes if it could possibly count that way. Everyone is like "what the hell? Nicole you have a Masters which is more than half the case managers have now.. people bend the rules for certain people"... so I've gotten some things stirred up a bit, but we'll see what happens. I'm not sure if it's a TCH rule or a statewide requirement.. bastards.

So, I'm so frustrated and upset and pissed off right now. It seems that nothing is working out or getting me where I need to be. Ugh.
