Combat Auto 174 Posted October 11, 2013 Given we are in a new era of Grievance (A Grievance Society) - I mean it seems "everyone" has a complaint, or has been done wrong by some group or somebody, or is owed something by somebody, I thought it might be fun/interesting to list our grievances...You can list a serious one, or a fun one...And a grievance, by definition (see link) can be real or imaginary!...You can list multiple grievances at one time or spread over several entries posts over time...You know, if you can't beat them join them...And if you want, stipulate what restitution you would like :-). https://www.google.com/#q=grievance I'll start: G1) I grew-up in a very finically poor family (many mouths to feed), and my parents could not afford dental to correct my crooked lower teeth. -Perhaps I can sue their estate - i.e. what remains of it dispersed to my siblings. G2) In the US-Navy, I was called a racial slur by an Irish-American Petty-Officer - so I refused his order (Luckily when he rated me out to the Chief, the Chief took my side) (True story by the way). -I am now traumatized for life, every-time I see a uniform, or an Irishman ;-) I get hives. –The Government should send me $1,000,000! G3) In the 2001 or so Stock-Market-Crash, I lost a fortune – where is my bail-out? What is in your Grievance file? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blake 50 Posted October 11, 2013 1 - I manage several employees who have young children but live at home with their parents (babys grandparents). The grandparents pay for everything for the child but my employees found some state program which provides food, diapers, insurance, basically everything a child needs to live. I am not sure if the state is cutting them a check for the stuff that they are pocketing, or if they are getting the products directly from the state and then fleecing the grandparents but either way it pisses me off. I have a big enough problem with my taxes going towards other kid's diapers, let alone my taxes going towards new Jordan's or liquor for the kids parents. 2 - I just got a letter from work stating that due to newly enacted ObamaCare my company is not sure how our health insurance is going to change in regards to coverage and premiums. I work for a company with over 100,000 employees but I bet you money my coverage will go down and premiums go up come November enrollment. Anyone who wants to bet against me I have $200 on it, pm me you want to take the wager and we are on. 3 - The street I live on is FULL of potholes but despite complaining from several of us I just have to duck and weave down the street every day unless I wana go on a roller coaster ride It's a small side street so the town couldn't give a crap less. 4 - Several owners in my condo complex applied for a tax reassessment in the past couple of years. Despite some requesting assessments based on what they PAID for the unit when purchased that year none were granted, presumably because the town doesn't want to set an example and lose their tax base. Riddle me this, how can a property be valued at anything other than it was purchased for at fair market value for that year? End rant - ultimately all of my issues are first world problems, nothing that will affect me eating tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuRrEaLNJ 294 Posted October 11, 2013 i am wearing pants. i am not a fan of pants and therefore think someone owes me approximately 4.2 trillion dollars for the inconvenience, as well as an additional payment for all of the detergent and water involved in the laundry i have done in my life for said pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Combat Auto 174 Posted October 11, 2013 wait after reading I don't think this was a serious thread - whoops... No Problem Brother we feel your pain. We take serious or not so serious greviences here... All Grievences welcome - we are in a new era of nany-state-ism, with restitutions forthcoming ;-).

Worn_Holster 2 Posted October 11, 2013 I live in a state where political corruption is rampant. The elite majority of liberal politicians see their position of power as a means to make themselves rich at the expense of the working class and the elderly, many of whom keep them in power. They just can't wait to get back into the governor's office so they can get back to business as usual and take more of my money and gun rights away. GET OUT AND VOTE ON WEDNESDAY!

matty 810 Posted October 11, 2013 The Democratic party exists, and for some unjustifiable reason, people keep voting for them--including many people on this very forum. The Republican party exists, and for some unjustifiable reason, people keep voting for them--including many people on this very forum. Obama is Prez, Biden is VP, and Hillary Clinton will be the next Pres. And many people, some on this forum, voted for them and will vote for Hillary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mcbethr 42 Posted October 11, 2013 #1 I'm Jewish. At Christmastime I should not be forced to park in the back lot of the mall just because a bunch of Gentiles feel like buying more crap they don't need and have taken all the spaces. Jews should have designated parking spaces close by the mall doors from Black Friday to New Years. I shouldn't have to suffer for your religious beliefs.

ChrisJM981 924 Posted October 11, 2013 Despite being assured my paycheck would be correct this week, I have still yet to be paid for work done on 9/5. My grievance is I'd like to see what payroll does all day, but they hide behind a locked door that you have to "buzzed in" to get through. This negates the element of surprise and prevents me from catching them online shopping for free phones and rims. Reality TV. Its turned a society of good people into mindless idiots who cry about everything Generation Whine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
