  • WTF to my dumb as contractor! He ordered the wrong colour brick after NUMEROUS conversations about it. He was the one who brought me the sample back in March and said are you sure you want this as it is very purple compared to the image I selected from. We then rushed to go select a new colour as he said he needed to order it. Well months go by and he didn't install it because of all of his excuses. Then he forgets we changed it. Luckily I was here when they delivered it and told them not to unload it.
    But now this means we can't get our deck complete for our shower on the 8th. Luckily the patio is complete so we will just have to use the basement walk out to get out there. Still WTFFFFFFF? I'm so frustrated

  • WTF to last night. I swear it's the full moon. DS work up screaming from a nightmare at 2am, slept with us for a couple hours before we were able to put him back in his crib. Dog was up middle of the night too, which he never is....i think i slept for 3 hours...UGH.
  • Look, @chyvie, your contractor is the fucking worst. I hope he charges you less for the bullshit he's pulled during this endeavor. 
  • @chyvie Dealing with contractors is the worst! We have someone supposedly coming to do some work in our back yard (retaining wall, patio) and it takes weeks for him to ever respond to my emails. We paid a deposit in June and I just heard this morning that they should finally be coming end of next week or beginning of the following week. I can’t imagine having to live through a huge indoor project - at least ours doesn’t affect daily life!

  • @chyvie Heated flooring; oooh, girl, you fancy!
  • @elothair ugh that is annoying. Not a great first impression. We had a similar experience
    We hired a separate landscape company to do our patio and sod. They were similar in never getting back to us and getting started late but now that he's doing the work it's been on time and he delivers on his promises. We only went with him because it saved us $18k to all the other quotes that came back.

  • Wtf to my boss and coworker (both male) who are now treating me like I can’t/won’t do my job well for the next month. If I give you any indication that that is the case, talk to me about it. Don’t make plans with each other without including me. 
  • Wtf, the temp we hired to cover my leave is a dud so back to the drawing board, 7 weeks out. Sure, I have time to hire and train a whole new person!
  • WTF to my body. I had a dream (where I was yelling at incompetent people for not sitting my husband next to me at dinner, I was pissed off lol) and then I doubled over in pain from sciatica (during my dramatic scolding), that radiated down my entire right leg, took out my knee, and then halfway down my left leg. I then woke up from said dream, in extreme pain and couldn't move my right leg for a couple minutes. GAHHH. I've never had sciatic pain hurt the knee so bad before.
  • @krzyriver WTF! I would be livid.  The lack of professionalism of some people never ceases to amaze me.
  • @meltonjl My hygienist just told me that she bumped into the girl last night after I left. She was sneaking back into the office to leave the keys. She admitted that she heard about the job two weeks ago and that her dad told her to give notice. She was too chicken. But she obviously told them she was giving notice so she could wait until after the holiday. We have three day weekends every weekend, so Labor Day is a four day weekend. And then she bailed last night to stretch it to five.... and now I won't be able to enjoy mine because I'll be stressing the whole damn time.

    E will be 18 on July 24th

  • @krzyriver I am so sorry! I hope you find a replacement soon!
  • @krzyriver regardless, just very inconsiderate of her.  Like you said, a waste of time.  

  • @SweetSweetTooth sorry you're dealing with that, sounds awful. Sometimes all you can do is cry to get through it, I hope it gets better.
  • @SweetSweetTooth sending you love, positivity, and hopefully some resolutions to your conflicts!
    Moms can be tough and stubborn and hard to handle when all you want it to love them so much! Give the situation some space and maybe cut communication for a little bit and hopefully she'll realize you and DH aren't budging on the matter. Fingers crossed for you mama!!
  • @halfanewt - Complain to HR; that shit don’t fly. 

    @SweetSweetTooth - Big hugs, and I hope that you guys are able to figure it out quickly. This kind of thing brings out the worst in people sometimes.  
  • @SweetSweetTooth I’m so sorry you’re having a hard time with your mom! Hang in there, thinking of you!

  • We had taken like 2 days to back off and cool down and it seemed to make it worse. My husband will meet with my dad tomorrow so hoping it goes better since my mom's seems to be the out of control one. Thank you for all the support and positive words! I love this group!!! 
  • @SweetSweetTooth hoping it goes well!!
  • @SweetSweetTooth hugs  <3 hope it goes well tomorrow! 
  • @SweetSweetTooth sorry you're having some family issues. Fingers crossed things go well today with your husband and dad!
  • Just catching up...sending you all of the hugs @SweetSweetTooth. Glad it sounds like things are on the mend but I’m sorry for the dramatic shift in the family dynamics. Lots of love coming your way ❤️
