Some of you know that I have been working for an old truck driver, helping him learn how to read and write, light housekeeping, bookkeeping and research for a law suite he wants to bring against the federal government. (they sold the land he has been leasing for over 20 yrs without giving him an option to buy and are trying to evict him), long story and he doesnt have a chance to win but wont give up.
Well, he drinks and is contakerous at the best of times. He is also loosing it I think. He will call me and tell me he needs me and will pick me up at a certain time, than not show up and call days later demanding I drop everything and run to his aid.
Lately he has taken to berateing me in front of my friends and neighbours at the local corner pub. Its humiliateing when he yells at me for not being there when he needs me! I am not his wife or his kid or his slave and he is the one who doesnt show up when he is suppose to causing me to loose a days work here in the house.
Anyhow I was out Wednesday at the pub for a friends birthday and he came in yelling at me at the top of his lungs. I suckeed it up and ignored it but several of my friend were ready to tell him to leave but out of consideration of his age (76) they kept quiet.
Yesterday was the last straw. He called in the morning and asked me to find some records of sale on the internet. So I went to the Docs and got my heart monitor removed and came straight home and went to work. He was suppose to call me at 1 pm and come and get me to go with him to meet a reporter from the local paper (an interview that I set up for him). Again he was a no show, so I kept looking for the infgormation for him all afternoon. He calls around 5:30 and wants to meet me at the pub, so I told him I would be there in half an hour. Didnt even stop to eat, just got ready and went.
So I get there 10 minutes early planning on having a word with him about yelling at me as well. Hes not there and I find out he left right after he called me!
So, I am there so I may as well enjoy myself for bit.I settle in with my ginger ale and an having a great time socializing. OK.
So in staggers Pete 2 hours late and begins to yell at me calling me a lazy cow and humilitating mea again. I just turned and went outsiode for a smoke. Tehn he gets in his truck and starts gunning the moter and giving me the nastiest looks. He starts to get out of the truck so I left the pub by the back door to avoid another scene. He gets back in his truck squealing his tires and almost hits a car leaving.
We were all shocked at his behavior. I hae got him media coverage , started a group on face book for him, done endless hours of research and even attended court with him (where he humilitaed me also).
I am so done with this . I tried so hard to help him when no one else would and put up with his ill treatment long enough. He has no respect for me and no gratitude what so ever.
He paid me 20 bucks to clean his little trailer and sometimes paid me to do bookwork and the money came in handy but its just not worth it.
So I am not gunna be his whipping post anymore. I am done and I have to say it feels great!
Sorry to be long winded but I haven't had a chance to talk to Trashman about this and had to vent.
I feel much better now. LOL!
Have a great day all. I am going to!More Time to spend with my fur kids! I love it!
Darn I hate myself sometimes for putting myself out to help others especailly when it blows up in my face.
