GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!
Bitch of the day - people who ask for favors, then want the favor
their way and get pissed off if they don't get it!!!!
Hello!!!! YOU'RE the one who needs MY help! YOUR job is to make it as easy as possible for me to do you this favor!!!!!!!!!!!
My sister called a few weeks ago. She is having oral surgery this Friday and needed someone to drive her home - anesthesia you know. I'd have to leave work early, but that's fine, I understand. I told her, no problem.
I tell my boss I need to leave early, have been working extra this week to make up the time I'm going to miss.
Then, just this afternoon, it suddenly occurs to me that it will be very uncomfortable for her - who just had oral surgery done - to jounce around in my Jeep as I drive her home.
So I call to ask her about this.
Her: Oh, I thought we'd just leave your car there overnight.
Me: Uh, no.
Her: It's a nice strip mall.
Me: Um, no. Why don't we leave YOUR car there? It's a nice strip mall.
Her: I'm not going to leave MY car there!
Me: Well, I'm not leaving my car there.
Her: You know, just forget it, just forget it.
Me: No, I'm willing to work with you on this. I had a crappy day anyway, my car died at the gas station this morning, I had to call a tow truck...
I went on and on about how my car acted up that morning, how Sprint told me on the phone that my calling card did not work when I was trying to call for a tow truck and call my job to tell them I'd be late, blah blah blah and how maybe it would be better to have a friend drop her off and that way...
Suddenly it dawns on me that I'm talking to empty air. She hung up on me back after she said 'forget it!'
SHE needed the favor, but she got pissed off because I didn't just go along with her plans. She thought I was being unreasonable because I didn't want to leave my car overnight in a strange place and hung up on me. Plans she made and then neglected to tell me and then she gets all drama queen on me.
I don't play that mind-game shit. I'm not her ex-husband (to whom she did this kind of stuff all the time). No skin off my nose. She needs the ride, not me.
SO pisses me off. She does this ALL the time.
OK, thanks, I feel better now.
