9/9 Dear poster with a cat who got screwed by a selfish military-woman: http://csua.com/?entry=53255 http://csua.com/?entry=53212 What's going on? Are you in good terms with that military-woman? Or have you severed your relationship with her? What is she like in real person? What is her nephew like? Did she marry a blue-collar worker? \_ Why do you want to know all of this? \_ I want to know how you deal with scumbags. I know a bunch of scumbag "friends" and I need to deal with them myself. Also we gave you advice. Don't you feel the least bit kind enough to share your knowledge? |

csua.com/?entry=53255 In return, I asked her to check on my sons for a week while I was away. She skipped a day (and committed a lie of omission when she didn't say so but admitted it when questioned) and the upstairs bedroom was full of my sons' diarrhea all over everything (wooden floor, bookcase, blankets) - which is not typical for my litter-trained sons, but probably a result of my absence - but she didn't clean it up or even mention it to me. I got in at 11pm at night and spent 2 hours dealing with that. It sounds like this person needs to be put on this black list. FYI, for example, this junior high "friend" that I invited to the wedding said he would come to the wedding. I called him up a few days later and he said he totally forgot because there was this really important church retreat. Then he came up with a bunch of excuses, said he was sorry, and said he would reimburse. Then later on he said "I don't think it should cost $300, ours was really cheap." Once they started the family nucleus, nothing outside matters anymore. Some people are just like that, just learn to not deal with these people. I've learned to ignore some of my family members who are totally wackos. I have learned over one who has been in and out of prison and another who is an insane (literally) drug abusing homeless guy. I have learned over the years not to trust them and consider my help to them to be charity, nothing more. With friends, I would expect some kind of reciprocity, but with a charity case, you just help them and don't expect anything in return except gratitude. |
csua.com/?entry=53212 As part of that my girlfriend stayed at her apartment a lot, watching him and the cats. The weekend before she got back we spent a lot of time cleaning her place. In fact, I would say it is a lot cleaner than the way she left it. She got back Sunday and came to our house to get her son before going back to her place. She was off Monday to recuperate before going back to work today. We are a little miffed that she hasn't called to say thanks or ask how things went. We thought she'd be pleasantly surprised that everything was clean and straightened up. We don't want a medal or anything, but a call saying "Wow. Are we right to be a little (a lot) pissed at this point? That said, she is probably tired, there is only one of here. We just did all the laundry, including things like bath mats, vacuumed, mopped, cleaned the toilets and tub, did all the dishes, made the beds, arranged the furniture (not *re*arranged but made sure things like pillows were in place), emptied the trash, dusted, sorted the mail, and all the typical stuff. I know certain things (like dusting and vacuuming) hadn't been done in a while based on the condition, which is why i say we left it cleaner than she did. Yes, I think you should give her a couple of days at least. At least you got a taste of what being a parent is like. However, how much trouble is it to pick up the phone, if even just to ask if we had any problems or issues while she was away? I know I would definitely want to know what happened while I was gone and I think it's polite to call and say "I noticed you guys cleaned the place up. Why don't you just feel good about having done service for a loved one? They say that the only desirable areas in San Jose are Almaden and Evergreen. I did some research and property values for these two are prohibitively high (one in the 800K, and the other one over 1M) Is there anything else in San Jose that's not dumpy? |
