I'm nothing but bad luck

Ok well I have nothing but bad luck, I am a good luck charm for 4 people :/ I honestly don't know how that works...Anyways to start off I lost my job due to the boss harrassing me after I talked to him about why he stood behind me and literally stared for 6 hours! Out of 8! So not even joking about that! Those who are on my facebook heard all about that...well then he lied to his boss about me and I ended up getting a warning for that too, yeah for his lie..So I have been constantly looking for a new job I have gotten offers for a few modeling gigs but that doesn't cut it so I had to except an offer for BNSF railway...as a conductor. They make amazing money but it requires me to be gone for 3-4 days a week, which brings me to the next thing..I now have to sell my babies because they can't just sit around for 4 days when I can't get to them and everyone is terrified of them and won't help out...so these are the last ball pythons I will probably own. And now that I can't keep anymore pets for now I had to take my name off the list for rescuing reptiles in the area, and a day after I did that I recieved an emergency call on a male burmese python who is 6 feet long but as thick as my forearm with RI and mouth rot along with scale rot.....now I feel worse because I can't even take him in...and now I have been having problems sleeping because my house is severely haunted, last night the dang things had me in tears hiding in my bed. They were on the stair case running up and down then they were in the attic above my room doing who knows what but it was making the walls shake and the noise over took my music, they the decided to walk around in front of my bedroom door and tap on the walls in the room next door....the dog was going insane. This is all after them ripping the posters off my walls in the middle of the freaking night just a week ago....yeah woke up and my pictures and poster numbers were all over the floor...this thing has talked to us, said my name, grabbed my leg, and jumped on my bed...so now I'm too terrified to sleep so most of the time I just leave, well now I can't because my car is burning oil....the oil is completely gone after just putting 4 qts in 3 weeks ago and no it's deffinately not leaking because we tested it to see if it left spots....and it is using gas like crazy....this is a 97 Ford Taurus so not a gas guzzler, well not supposed to be but it uses 4 gallons to drive 16 miles.....seriously?! I don't even have a job so no income to put gas in my car, the only reason my snakes are even eating is because I get free rats for life by a friend of mine....and this next thing is the reason my eyes are all teary. About 5 years ago my neighbors house caught on fire when he wasn't home and it wasn't visible from the outside but I could hear the detector going off so I called the emergency number and luckily I called when I did or his dog Buddy and his cat would not be alive. After that I grew attached to Buddy but the owner was extremely old and he just passed away...well Buddy ended up in the pound and my neighbors daughter told me about it. I went up to see him and thankfully they let me in the back where he was well I bent down and he was licking my face and jumping all over me. The man said he has been extremely shy and didn't see him act that way at all with anyone else. But I can't keep any pets right now or else he would be mine...I tried leaving and he tried following me...the image of the hurt in his eyes when I told him no breaks my heart....I don't even know what to do right now my life is just going downhill with one thing at a time slowly knocking more things down....stupid domino effect....I thought if you did kind things good things were to happen to me....well I guess taking a 63 year old veteran and his luggage from town to town on the last bit of gas I had and giving him the last $20 I had that was supposed to be gas to get home...wasn't good enough....poor guy was from Maine going clear to Colorado and was standing in pooring rain having people yell at him....anyways if you have read all of this I am extremely sorry I just don't have anyone to really talk to right now so I needed to rant...

None of that sounds fun I'm sorry :( it sounds like you need the ghost adventure people to come to your house (the guys from travel channel) but it will be a bp.net version and we all bring a snake. Don't mean to make light of a bad time I hope everything starts looking up for you. Everything happens for a reason just gotta figure out why. Good luck and rant away I've done it before 😊

Keep being a good person! Please!
As bad as things seem right now, this is all the tiniest little blip on the timeline of your life. Just get through it because honestly, that's all you can do.
Just make sure when you do come out on the other side, you're still your sweet, caring self. The world needs as many selfless people as we can get!

Well, looking at the bright side of things, at least you landed a good job. The first few years will be no picnic, but once you have some seniority, things will settle down.

Frodo: I can't do this, Sam.

Sam: I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam?

Sam: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth fighting for.


Hope things get better for you sooner rather than later. Keep on truckin'. :)

It always gets worse before it gets better. Things are bad but with the new Job, things will start to look up for you, I'm sure of it! Your snakes will be fine without you for 4 days! As long as you make sure they have clean water before you go they'll be totally fine.

I would love to see your house! I love the supernatural. I grew up in a building that was pretty haunted. Not nearly that bad, but similar stuff happened to me growing up. Still happens to my younger brother. I know how scary that stuff can be, especially being touched. There's nothing more frightening than being touched by something like that. Both me and my brother have been pulled out of bed (like in paranormal activity). The good thing was that the encounters were not as frequent as yours seem to be. I could talk all day about this stuff but I don't want to hijack your thread. LOL

Cheers.

Is there someone anywhere near you that could take in your snakes?

I'm sorry to hear all this. Why can't your snakes be alone for 3-4 days a week? As for your ghost friend, it's obviously trying to get your attention, why not try to communicate? Get a voice recorder and ask questions ( you probably have one on your phone.) best wishes and we are here to listen and help any way we can!

I can't find anyone I trust enough and that can tolerate my snakes enough to come even give them water......literally my ex was the only one who touched them more than with just a finger and longer than just a second lol there was one friend who would have until she found out that my large female gave me one heck of a tag now she doesn't trust any of them because that female is the one that was the most lovable with everyone..and every night almost these ghosts play with my hair....the only time I have really talked to them was more yelling at them to go to sleep than really talking lol but they have said hello to my mother and have also called out mommy to her 3 times in one night then crawled up into bed with her tomorrow I am going to go look for an apartment because this house is worse than the ex-funeral home I lived in before.....and awesome as I type this they are tapping on the walls....this is too much for me I really can't live here. My grandparents are moving out of their house because they are being shoved down the stairs, my grandfather was stabbed in the ear by a radio antenna, he also was pushed over when he was bending over, my grandma has people yelling into her hearing aid, and padlock doors have been thrown open...At their house last night my cousin had her remote thrown across the room at her cat. I guess I'm going to leave for a walk because I can't stand this craziness.

I'm not being a jerk, I'm just curious- Are all of your relatives living in "haunted" houses?

Just my house well my parents house really I had to move in only temperarily, and both sets of grandparents, the grandparents on my adoptive side are living in what used to be a funeral home, no idea why they thought that would be a good choice. And the grandparents on my biological side are living in an extremely old house that is off the main street of our tiny town so it is one of the last original houses in town but the activity there is way out of control.
Oh and I found out my mother is worried about my grandparents so she offered to swap houses, so I really have to find another place for myself before she does that.

Wow, all this ghost activity is just crazy! I don't think I could live like that either. I have always wanted to encounter a ghost but I think I have changed my mind after reading all of that. If I were you, I would be looking for another place to live also.

Thought my debit card was just lost for the past week....well got a statement from the bank saying I have had 6 atm transactions when I haven't had my freaking card now I owe them hundreds and they stopped the account from being used but are still billing it $6 every day til I pay them all of what is owed..........?!

File a police report as a stolen card.

That's the thing I'm not sure who it was right now. My cousin stole my grandparents card and used it and if she stole mine I can't do that to her...I have to talk to her about it tomorrow but if she says she doesn't have it then I'm telling her I'm filing a report and if it she does have it hopefully that will scare her into confessing....I really really really wish I didn't have to live at this moment..

I lived in a haunted house as a child for 2 years....not a fun experience....I would suggest investigating local or state paranormal societies that might be able to help you out in that one respect.

Just remember to take one thing at a time and take a few deep breaths occasionally. Sorry to hear about the pet/snake situation...I m a new BP owner myself but my roommate leaves hers alone for a few days at a time and hes just fine.

It helps me when I am feeling crazy and overwhelmed to listen to some music ( i couldnt live without music!!) and to make a list of things and prioritize them based on importance but also how long each issue will take to deal with...or write out a map of steps to deal with some of the big stuff...and like yoda said "do or do not..there is no try"...just confront the BS head on! :D

Good luck!! It will all work out in the end...

You need to do that to her especially if she has a history of this behavior...My mom and I just got through dealing with this with my brother...You can't provide safe haven for family members...they need to hit rock bottom to learn and by not reporting her illegal actions you are part of the problem and helping her codependent behavior.


Also call your bank and report it as stolen and that the charges are fraudulent ones...they should block the card, investigate and be sure to be honest and explain the situation to them. I have dealt with similar issues with both banks ive belonged to over the years. (Bank of America and M&T Bank)

I hope you find a job soon and you problems go away....


Next time use paragraphs.... That wall of text was really hard to read, but maybe it's my dyslexia acting up cuz it's late and I'm tired lol

Yeah I'm sorry I tend to do that, my mind was just going to fast for me to even really pay attention to what I was doing. To be honest I'm surprised my fingers kept up. Just stressed and needed to rant..

How does one just stumble into a train conductor job??! I'd KILL for an opportunity like that!!!:O

What state you live in if its Minnesota I can point you too many places that need train conductors, most that is brining iron ore from the iron range to duluth so it can be shipped. I have a few buddies who do it they make decent money and since its all in state their home every night and all that. I thought about it but I'd go crazy in a little train cabin all day I gotta be moving.

I'm currently in New Hampshire. Only the Amtrak runs through here. I know a couple guys in Iowa who work for Union Pacific, and they make at least $27 an hour...New England kinda sucks.

My step-dad works as a track inspector so he got me on out there, but living next to one of the largest train yards in the world, it's pretty easy to work out there, they always need people. But of course I'm ready for the job now because I seriously need a new car more than anything...I was stranded in a tiny town over the weekend because my car would just not start....it was not dead, there was gas and oil in there. All we did was roll it out of the ditch and into a yard, 15 minutes later it started up without having to work on anything. I still don't know what was wrong with it.
