So, Chris got a call over the weekend from his aunt... she said that she had entered me into a drawing for a free 20" flat screen TV and that if I get a call, I need to act like I know what's going on... She said she even taped a penny to the receipt so that if she was the one drawing the name, I'd be more likely to win.
Well, I did win. She called me from her store yesterday to tell me in a very professional manner that I had won a 20" TV.. While she was on the phone, I asked her what I need to do to pick it up and she very quietly said, "let me call you back later". Well, she never called back.
So today I asked Chris to call her to see what I need to do to go get my TV...
So, he called her and then IMs me to tell me "I think that she did it for her and she is going to get u something for doin it for her....cause she couldn't enter cause she works there..."
WTF is that?! Seriously??? If you're going to use my name to do something for yourself, let me freaking know! Don't just call me and tell me to act like I know what's going on if I'm not really going to get anything out of it! I mean, I would ask someone if they care if I use their name so that I could win something instead of just doing it!
Plus, they already have a huge flatscreen in their living room and they make a hell of a lot more money than I do... they could easily afford to go out and just buy themselves a new TV. I was excited that I was finally going to have my own flat screen TV and I was going to be able to get rid of the box TV that I had been borrowing from Chris...
How rude is that?!
Then Chris keeps apologizing and then telling me that "she's gonna get you something for doing that for her"... yeah, okay... that's just stupid because obviously whatever she gets me isnt going to be as cool as a 20" flat screen TV! If it was going to be as good as that then she could have just bought herself the TV and saved the trouble!
I'm really irritated with this... You know, I thought she was entering me into this because she liked me and wanted to do something nice for me. But of course not... it's all about her.
Why do I always underestimate how shallow people can be and how self-centered they can be?!
So, there's my rant...
