It's My Life: Employment Drama and the #TagTeam Power Rankings.

 *This blog was started on January 18, 2022.

We are going on eight interviews in one week. So far, Three of them were for "NinetyForChill - The Podcast". Two have been for a job that is too good to be true. Tomorrow will be for a couple of jobs and hopefully one will be with an IDES agent to appeal my previous, primary employer protest's of my unemployment claim. Needless to say, I am stressed out.

The stress is more from just wanting my drama with that employer to end. I have so much to say about getting screwed over for expressing what they were doing wrong which creates poor morale and how to resolve this. I think I am going to have to invite the interviewee to visit MainEventOfTheDead.com...but I might be exposing too much of my life.


What I am disappointed in right now is that I have not found a goofy sounding song title to give this blog post. I say that, and I think of Talk Talk. Don't you forget.

Here is to hoping the next blog will be "Hella Good". I have a feeling No Doubt lead to fuzzy memories.

I am on an emotional edge. My retailer is treating me great, but I need a guaranteed 40-hour week. After my previous employer's treatment, it just leads me to feel my life is just bound to be hopeless. It really sucks that I got muzzle my emotions.

I am not ashamed of who I am and I cannot afford therapy. Again, resolution of the drama with my past employer would be nice to elaborate past realities. This was and hopefully still is my emotional outlet. Sorry that I do not make friends easily. And yet again, I got to stop and not elaborate until my fight ends. The cruelty to have to fight.

It is ironic that real life is where I have to stand up for myself. When I was in the wrestling locker rooms before AAW, all the fighting is outside the ring via verbal jarring while I could count on one hand the Peorians on the top of the card who could actually be a challenging physical fight. You can say that wrestling is more of an art than sport, but it is frustrating being a Mid-South Pink Slip. Things would be so much better off if it still needed to be "real (to me)" damnit.

I guess that is a good enough means to transition to something fun to talk about. Something that is obvious to place in the title. How would anyone think that I was even trying to break confidentiality when the past six months of blogs could not indicate anything about any employer who was not Tony Khan or Vince McMahon?

The Disgruntled's Real Men's Tag Team Power Rankings (01/18/2022)


The Number 1 Tag Team in the World:
SmackDown Tag Team Champions:
The Usos: Jimmy and Jey Uso (Up 2 Spots)

  • They had successfully retained their championship against WWE's greatest tag team, The New Day, to start the year.
  • The SmackDown Tag Team Championship has been previous recognized as the Disgruntled's Real World Tag Team Championship.
  • The Lucha Brothers losing to Jurassic Express left the division with a lot of dream tag team bouts unfulfilled (Young Bucks rematch, Santana and Ortiz, redDRagon, Sting and Allin, etc.).

AEW World Tag Team Champions:
Jurassic Express: Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus (Up 5 Spots)

  • The AEW World Tag Team Championship was the most recent DRCW Real World Tag Team Championship.

ROH World Tag Team Champions:
The Briscoes: Jay and Mark Briscoe (Down 1 Spot)

  • They also hold the Game Changer Wrestling Tag Team Championship.

Like a Prayer: 2022 and the Championship Mayhem

Like a Prayer: 2022 and the Championship Mayhem
(A Weird Soundtrack for and Orange Cassidy Match)

  *This blog post was started on January 11, 2022.

As Mark Hamill tweeted, "Is it too late to resolve not to spend that as much time on the Internet?", I am envious. My bank job is forcing me to spend more time on the Internet, or should I say, my former bank job. If anyone has some awesome job offers that will pay $15 an hour at 40 hours, send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com. Relocation is not an issue.

It took a few days to get into the Disney World Vacation, and the job loss is probably the primary reason. Usually it takes time in a crowd of strangers for me to feel alone, but this was the opposite experience. I may not have wanted to come home. The pay cannot be great and I lucked out in terms of the Covid risk, but to see great hospitality by the cast and hotel staff...and it feels like home. Curse my atheism.

Of course, the chorus sings "When you call MY name, it's like a little prayer." For someone with an ego, it feels right.

Fortunately, my retail job is taking care of me. It has been a hell of fight to get in the position to get funds that would cover the unpaid vacation, but the frustration goes beyond that. There was a hell of a lot of wrestling last week to catch up on, and the Samsung TVs (I am more of a Sony guy.) were not new enough to Airplay Fite TV. If only I knew my dad would bring his HDMI cable for his laptop to try and catch the Buffalo Bills. If only he knew that I could have resolved that for him. At least we got to see some the Rivermen hockey.

The worst thing about all the wrestling I missed, there was a lot of newsworthy moments. I am not in the mood for the real news right now, so lets try to make some sense about the wrestling scene before tomorrow's Dynamite.
