How Are You Feeling? (cont'd)

[TronRP]

Feels like someone ripped my heart out, but I'm not going to cry.

Just have to remember you can't help everyone.  Especially those who are looking for some reason to attack you for the help you've already given.

Took a couple of days, but I feel like I'm mentally in a good place now.

I felt messed up for a little bit.  Headed out to help a neighbor and ran right into a certain individual as they were getting into a vehicle.  She pulled out the Mama voice on me saying we needed to talk when I wasn't busy.

 

Since I know she has her version of events in her head and feels justified standing behind them, I just don't want her to come at me verbally like she did Trene because I already know I'm going to break down.

 

We will have to do this on the phone with each party having a witness to the conversation and I need to brace myself for the accusations that will definitely come...as usual.

 

I figured something like this would come, I just didn't know when.

Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should.

Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.)

It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.)

I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy.

I hope things are going well for you guys.

Yeah, thank you for the check-in.

 

Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.

 

She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.

 

I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.

 

Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.

 

But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

I am currently floored.

 

FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.

 

You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.

 

I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.

 

Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.

 

Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.

 

Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.
