I've given up on humans! WE ALL DESERVE HELL. :'(


Question Posted Wednesday September 20 2006, 11:47 am

Ahh! I feel like me and my family are ALWAYS being tricked!!
Me and my family moved from America to Europe 5 years ago. My mother has still not mastered the language over here, and people use that as a way of tricking her and using her! And it makes me feel so bad, i cry just thinking about it!!
I'll give you a recent example,...
we were paying way too much for our internet, so we switched to another company. The first internet company we had (chello) told us they needed 3 months.. whatever youc all it.. like we'd have them as our internet company for 3 more months and then it would shut off and we could start using our new company. Now when the third month came they didn't shut it off, so my mom called them and asked "why?" and they were like "oh sorry we'll shut it off for you now! and we didnt suspect anything so we started paying the new company.. now they sent us a bill for 200 dollars for this month (which is way too much for one month of internet don't you think? i mean its broadband and all..i dont know..) anyway, se we called the company.. and we were like "ehh, we switched companys 1 month ago, why are we still supposed to pay you?" and they were like "noo somone called and signed you up again!" BUT NO! my mom directly told them to shut it off! I WAS THERE - THEY COULDNT HAVE THOUGHT SHE SAID THAT! her swedish might not be perfect, but its completely understandable and cant be misunderstood!! so anyways, this company then said "since you signed up for it again, you have to be part of it for 12 MORE MONTHS! and that's the deal our "new company" has.. so now we'll be paying for TWO INTERNETCONNECTIONS for twelve months, and my mom already workd her ass off ALL DAY LONG to be le to afford our lifestyle! i cant stop crying about this.. ITS NOT A BIG DEAL I KNOW, but it just feels like i miss being a kid and not knowíng how EVIL people are, how we steal and trick eachother!! and i tried calling this company and explaining how unfair this is and the lasy HUNG UP THE PHONE IN MY FACE.

and that's not it! im evil too! i lie and i steal! and i hurt people..
and i jus dont undertsnd how UNFAIR this all is!
i feel like i wanna give up. i cant keep beliving in people, that we're good, that we can get better, i cant keep licing like this,..
i feel like i need stability, fairness, equality..

you know?? -
give me some hope please.
i need it.
desperatly!

well I don't really know how the Swedish Judicial system works but here you could try and sue the company and try them for conspiracy. It might also work in sweden as well but im not sure you might want to look into that.

Wow, so your'e growing up. The world was a safe place and now it sucks. Well, part of growing up is getting over the all or nothing mentality and realizing that nothing is black and white. Companies are out to make money and some are extrememly unethical. Any company that you think has violated you, should be reported to the proper authority or business bureau. That is the way the world works. I understand why it is upsetting, but we have to learn as adults how to deal with upsetting things in a positive fashion. Every problem can be an opportunity for some solution, when you clearly identify your objective. Now the part about beating yourself up for being "evil" sounds a bit strong, too. You sound like a sensitive soul who has high expectations not only for the world at large, but for yourself, also. Don't give up on yourself or the world. There is enough goodness to find, for one willing to seek it. As an adult, who wants to live in a better world, you have opportunities everyday to choose by your own actions how to create a more postive world. Don't give up your values of stability, fairness and equality etc., but know that these things are not easily handed out, but only those courageous enough to live by their convictions will make a difference. I have a feeling that you will use your power for good and by doing so, goodness will meet you in unlikely places.
